4-2. Driving procedures
COASTER_GW-E
■ When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the
accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■ Caution when driving
Do not turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position while driving. If in an
emergency, you must turn the engine off while the vehicle is moving, turn
the engine switch only to the “ACC” position to stop the engine. An accident
may result if the engine is stopped while driving. (P. 383)
■ Throttle knob precaution (1HZ engine)
Do not use the throttle knob when the vehicle is moving. This could result in
longer stopping distance.
■ To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the engine switch in the “ACC”, “ON” or “G” (1HZ engine) posi-
tion for long periods of time without the engine running.
■ When starting the engine
● Do not crank the engine for more than 30 seconds at a time. This may
overheat the starter and wiring system.
● Do not race a cold engine.
● If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, have your vehi-
cle checked by your Toyota dealer immediately.
