7. If the engine does not start within five seconds, return the ignition switch to
the OFF position and wait five seconds. Repeat steps 6 and 7 until the
engine starts.
8. Vary the engine RPM slightly with the throttle to aid in warm up until the
engine idles smoothly.
NOTICE
Operating the vehicle immediately after starting could cause engine damage.
Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes before operating the vehicle.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
1. Release the throttle pedal completely and brake to a complete stop.
2. Place the transmission in PARK.
3. Turn the engine off.
4. Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in PARK
before exiting the vehicle.
WARNING
A rolling vehicle can cause serious injury. Always place the transmission in
PARK before stopping the engine.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the vehicle is used year-round, check the oil level frequently. A rising oil level
could indicate the accumulation of contaminates such as water or excess fuel in
the bottom of the crankcase. Water in the bottom of the crankcase can lead to
engine damage and must be drained. Water accumulation increases as outside
temperature decreases.
