For more information on starting the vehicle, refer to Starting the engine in this chapter. Extended idling at high engine speeds can produce very high temperatures in the engine and exhaust system, creating the risk of fire or other damage. 151 Driving Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle in dry grass or other dry ground cover. The emission system heats up the engine compartment and exhaust system, which can start a fire. Do not start your vehicle in a closed garage or in other enclosed areas. See Guarding against exhaust fumes in this chapter for more instructions. If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer inspect your vehicle immediately. Important safety precautions A computer system controls the engine's idle revolutions per minute (RPM). When the engine starts, the idle RPM runs higher than normal in order to warm the engine. If the engine idle speed does not slow down automatically, have the vehicle checked. Do not allow the vehicle to idle for more than 10 minutes at high engine RPM. For more information on safety belts and their proper usage, refer to the Seating and safety restraints chapter. If starting a vehicle with an automatic transmission: · Make sure the parking brake is set. · Make sure the gearshift is in P (Park). 152 Driving If starting a vehicle with a manual transmission: · Make sure the parking brake is set. Turn the key to 4 (ON) without turning the key to 5 (START). 4 3 5 2 1 Make sure the corresponding lights illuminate or illuminate briefly. · If the driver's safety belt is fastened, the light may not illuminate. 153 Driving Starting the engine Note: Whenever you start your vehicle, release the key as soon as the engine starts.

If the engine does not start in two attempts, press the accelerator all the way to the floor and hold.
