5-12 Switches and controls
CAUTION
• Allow the engine to idle for at least 3 minutes
before stopping it. Not doing so could result
in an engine malfunction.
• The engine should only be stopped from an
idle. Stopping it at a high RPM could result in
an engine malfunction.
• After stopping the engine, do not leave the
starter switch in the “ON” or “ACC” position
since this could drain the battery. Turn the
switch to the “LOCK” position or to the posi-
tion between the “ACC” and “LOCK” posi-
tions (marked with a “•”).
1. Apply the parking brake while depressing the
brake pedal.
2. Manual transmission vehicle:
Place gearshift lever in the neutral position.
Automatic transmission vehicle:
Place range selector lever in the “P” position
<other than FM65F> or “N” position <FM65F>.
3. Allow the engine to idle for more than 3 minutes
before stopping it.
When the vehicle is in motion, engine parts
become extremely hot. This is particularly true
during uphill or high-speed driving. Therefore,
let the engine cool down sufficiently by allowing
it to idle for a time before stopping it.
