When the ambient temperature is -4 °F (-20 °C) or lower, it may not be possible to startfrom a standstill even with the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE) position.This phenomenon occurs
because the trans-
axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem.
If this occurs, place
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle
for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will wa
rm up, and you will be
able to start normally. Do not leave the vehicle during warm-upoperation.

occurs with the rear
door windows open, open the front door win- dows as well as the rear door windows to minimize the condition.
N00511400399
To park the vehicle, first bring it to a com- plete stop, fully engage the parking brake, and then move the gearshift lever to 1st (on auphill) or “R” (Reverse) (on a downhill) posi- tion for vehicles equipped with a manual transaxle, set the selector lever to “P”
cles equipped with a
continuously variable transmission (CVT).
 If the battery termin
als are disc
onnected or
the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the
safety mechanism will be cancelled and thedoor window will not

[For vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.- key)]For information on operation for vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Secu- rity Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key), refer to“Free-hand Advanced Se
curity Transmitter
(F.A.S.T.-key): Starting and stopping the engine” on page 5-16. [Except for vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Security Transmit- ter (F.A.S.T.-key)]  Do not operate the starter motor continu- ously for longer than 15 seconds as this could run the battery down or damage thestarter motor. If the engine does not start, turn the ignition switch back to the “OFF”
conds, and then try
again. Trying repeatedly with the engine or starter motor still turning will damage the starter mechanism. If the engine will not start because the bat- tery is weak or discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” (on page 8-2)for instructions.
 A longer warm up period will only con- sume extra fuel. The engine is warmed upenough for driving when the low coolant temperature indi
cator goes out.
Refer to “Low coolant temperature indi-cator” on page 5-71.
This model is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. This is a sys- tem that automatically controls fuel injection.
There is usually no need to depress the accel- erator pedal when starting the engine.The starter should not be run for more than 15 seconds at a time. To prevent battery drain, wait a few secondsbetween attempts to restart the engine. 1. Make sure all occupants are properly seated with seat belts fastened. 2. Insert the ignition key.3. Make sure the parking brake is applied. 4. Press and hold the brake pedal down with your right foot. 5. Press and hold the clutch pedal all the way down (manual transaxle). 6. On vehicles equippe
d with manual trans-
axle, place the gearshift lever in the “N” On vehicles equippe
d with continuously
variable transmission (CVT), make surethe selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position.
