C050B02A-AAT

Normal Conditions:

The Starting Procedure:

1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.

2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and place the

gearshift lever (manual transaxle) in neutral

or the selector lever (automatic transaxle) in

"P" (park) position.

3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON"

position, make certain all warning lights and

gauges are functioning properly before start-

ing the engine.

WARNING:

Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed

when starting a manual transaxle vehicle.

Your manual transaxle equipped vehicle

will not start unless the clutch pedal is fully

depressed. On a manual transaxle equipped

vehicle that can be started without de-

pressing the clutch, there is the potential to

cause damage to the vehicle or injury to

someone inside or outside the vehicle as a

result of the forward or backward move-

ment of the vehicle that will occur if the

clutch is not depressed when the vehicle is

started.

4. Turn the ignition key to the "START" position

and release it when the engine starts.

After the engine has started, allow the engine

to run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to placing

the vehicle in gear.

The starter should not be operated for more

than 15 seconds at a time. Wait 15-30 sec-

onds between starting attempts to protect

the starter from overheating.

WARNING:

Always fully depress the brake pedal before

and while shifting out of the "P" Park posi-

tion into another position to avoid inad-

vertent motion of the vehicle which could

injure persons in or around the car.
