LOCK position, wait 10 to 15 seconds, then
repeat the “Normal Starting” procedure.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the starter, wait 10 to
15 seconds before trying again.
After Starting
The idle speed will automatically decrease as
the engine warms up.
Normal Starting Diesel Engine
1. The shift lever must be in the NEUTRAL or
PARK position before you can start the engine.
2. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
3. Watch for the “Wait To Start Light” in the
instrument cluster. Refer to “Instrument Cluster”
in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for
further review. It will glow for two to ten seconds
or more, depending on engine temperature.
When the “Wait To Start Light” goes out, the
engine is ready to start.
4. Tip Start Feature
(Automatic Transmission Only)
Do not press the accelerator. Turn the ignition
key to the START position and then release it.
The starter motor will continue to run, and it will
automatically disengage when the engine is
running. If the engine fails to start, the starter
will disengage automatically in 25 seconds. If
this occurs, turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
position, wait 25 to 30 seconds, then repeat the
“Normal Starting” procedure.
NOTE:
The starter motor may run up to 30 seconds
in very cold conditions until the engine is
started. The starter can be disengaged by
turning the ignition key to the OFF position,
if required.
5. Without Tip Start Feature
(Manual Transmission Only)
Turn the ignition switch to the START position
and release when the engine starts. If the
engine fails to start within 10 seconds, turn the
ignition switch to the LOCK position, wait 10 to
15 seconds, then repeat the “Normal Starting”
procedure.
6. After the engine starts, allow it to idle for
approximately 30 seconds before driving. This
allows oil to circulate and lubricate the turbo-
charger.
Engine Warm-Up
Avoid full throttle operation when the engine is
cold. When starting a cold engine, bring the
engine up to operating speed slowly to allow the
oil pressure to stabilize as the engine warms up.
NOTE:
High-speed, no-load running of a cold en-
gine can result in excessive white smoke
and poor engine performance. No-load en-
gine speeds should be kept under 1,200 rpm
during the warm-up period, especially in
cold, ambient temperature conditions.
If temperatures are below 32°F (0°C), operate
the engine at moderate speeds for five minutes
before full loads are applied.
