Driving and Operating 9-29

engine begins cranking, the

engine will continue cranking

for a few seconds or until the

vehicle starts. If the engine does

not start and the key is held in

START for many seconds,

cranking will be stopped after

15 seconds to prevent cranking

motor damage. To prevent gear

damage, this system also

prevents cranking if the engine

is already running. Engine

cranking can be stopped by

turning the ignition switch to

ACC/ACCESSORY or

LOCK/OFF.

Notice: Cranking the engine for

long periods of time, by returning

the key to the START position

immediately after cranking has

ended, can overheat and damage

the cranking motor, and drain the

battery. Wait at least 15 seconds

between each try, to let the

cranking motor cool down.

2. If the engine does not start after

5‐10 seconds, especially in very

cold weather (below 0°F or

−18°C), it could be flooded with

too much gasoline. Push the

accelerator pedal all the way to

the floor and holding it there as

you hold the key in START for a

maximum of 15 seconds. Wait at

least 15 seconds between each

try, to allow the cranking motor

to cool. When the engine starts,

let go of the key and accelerator.

If the vehicle starts briefly but

then stops again, repeat the

procedure. This clears the extra

gasoline from the engine. Do not

race the engine immediately

after starting it. Operate the

engine and transmission gently

until the oil warms up and

lubricates all moving parts.

Notice: The engine is designed to

work with the electronics in the

vehicle. If you add electrical parts

or accessories, you could change

the way the engine operates.

Before adding electrical

equipment, check with your

dealer. If you do not, the engine

might not perform properly. Any

resulting damage would not be

covered by the vehicle warranty.

Engine Heater

The engine coolant heater can

provide easier starting and better

fuel economy during engine

warm-up in cold weather conditions

at or below −18°C (0°F ). Vehicles

with an engine coolant heater

should be plugged in at least

four hours before starting. An

internal thermostat in the plug-end

of the cord may exist which will

prevent engine coolant heater

operation at temperatures above

−18°C (0°F).

To Use the Engine Heater

1. Turn off the engine.

2. Open the hood and unwrap

the electrical cord. The cord

is located in the engine

compartment behind the

underhood fuse block on the

driver side of the vehicle.
