Starting and Stopping Engine
230On rare occasions, it may be difficult
to start the engine depending on the
fuel and the usage condition (repeated
driving of a distance in which the
engine has not warmed up suffi-
ciently). In such a case, it is recom-
mended that you change to a different
brand of fuel.
 On rare occasions, transient
knocking may be heard from the
engine when the accelerator is oper-
ated rapidly such as a rapid start-up
and a rapid acceleration. This is not a
malfunction.
 The engine starts more easily when
the headlights, air conditioner and rear
window defogger are turned off.■ Starting Engine
NOTEWhen pressing the push-button
ignition switch while depressing the
clutch pedal (MT models) or the brake
pedal (AT models): - The engine starter operates for a
maximum of 10 seconds and after
starting the engine, the starter stops
automatically.
- The engine can be started
regardless of the power status.
 If the engine does not start, check
the security indicator light. Then press
the push-button ignition switch
without depressing the clutch pedal
(MT models) or the brake pedal (AT
models) to switch the power to “OFF”. - If the light had illuminated, try to
start the engine again.
- If the light had been off, press the

message is displayed on the
combination meter, there may be
a malfunction with the vehicle.
