OTE
If the front wheels are turned, the anti-theft lock may
sometimes make it difficult to turn the ignition switch
from “LOCK” to “ACC” position. Firmly turn the steer-
ing wheel to the left or to the right as you turn the ignition
switch.
Starting
N00514600217
Tips for starting
Do not operate the starter motor for longer than 15 sec-
onds as this could run the battery down or damage the
starter motor. If the engine does not start, turn the ignition
switch back to the “LOCK” position, wait a few seconds,
and then try again. Trying repeatedly with the engine or
starter motor still turning will damage the starter mecha-
nism.
If the engine will not start because the battery is weak or
discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 6-
2 for instructions.
A longer warm up period will only consume extra fuel.
The engine is warmed up enough for driving when the bar
graph of the engine coolant temperature display starts to
move. Refer to “Interrupt display screen (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-194.
On vehicles equipped with the Twin Clutch SST, the fol-
lowing may occur after the engine is started, but they do
not indicate an abnormality.
You may hear operational sounds of the Twin Clutch
SST and you may feel vibration in the vehicle body.
CAUTION
!
Carry the key with you when leaving the vehicle.
If your vehicle needs to be towed, turn the ignition
switch to the “ACC” position to unlock the steering
wheel.
