as soon as the engine starts. Excessive cranking
could damage the starter.

After you start the engine, let it idle for a few
seconds. Keep your foot on the brake pedal and

automatic transaxle and has an

A computer system controls the engine’s idle
speed. When you start your vehicle, the engine’s
idle speed normally runs high. These faster
engine speeds will make your vehicle coast
slightly faster than its normal idle speed. It
should, however, slow down after a short time.
If it does not, have the idle speed checked by
your dealer or a qualified technician.
