7-8 Starting and operating
If the engine does not start, try the
following.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the
OFF position and wait for at least
10 seconds. After checking that the
parking brake is firmly set, turn the
ignition switch to the START position
while depressing the accelerator pedal
slightly (approximately a quarter of the
full stroke). Release the accelerator
pedal as soon as the engine starts.
(2) If this fails to start the engine, turn
the ignition switch back to the OFF
position and wait for at least 10
seconds. Then fully depress the accel-
erator peda l and turn the ignition
switch to the START position. If the
engine s tarts, qu ickly r elease the
accelerator pedal.
(3) If this fails to start the engine, turn
the ignition switch again to the OFF
position. After waiting for 10 seconds
or longer, turn the ignition switch to the
START position without depressing
the accelerator pedal.
(4) If the engine still refuses to start,
contact your nearest SUBARU dealer
for assistance.
6. Confirm that all warning and indicator
lights have gone off after the engine has
started. The fuel injection system auto-
matically lowers the idle speed as the
engine warms up.
NOTE
. The engine may be difficult to start
when the battery has been discon-
nected and reconnected (for mainte-
nance or other purposes). This diffi-
culty is caused by the electronically
controlled throttles self-diagnosi s
function. To overcome it, k eep the
ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 10 seconds before
starting the engine.
. For non-turbo models, to protect the
engine while the shift lever is in the
neutral position, the engine i s co n-
trolled so that the engine speed may
not become too high even if the accel-
erator pedal is depressed hard.
