When the key is in the ignition OFF position, the automatic

transmission shift lever can be moved from the P (Park) position

without the brake pedal depressed. To avoid unwanted vehicle

Preparing to start your vehicle

Engine starting is controlled by the powertrain control system. This system

meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment standard requirements

regulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio noise.

When starting a fuel-injected engine, don’t press the accelerator before

or during starting. Only use the accelerator when you have difficulty

starting the engine. For more information on starting the vehicle, refer to

Starting the engine in this chapter.

Extended idling at high engine speeds can produce very high

temperatures in the engine and exhaust system, creating the risk

of fire or other damage.
