Engine starting is controlled by the
ignition system. This system meets
all Canadian InterferenceĆ
Causing Equipment standard
requirements regulating the
impulse electrical field strength of
radio noise.
When starting a fuelĆinjected
engine, avoid pressing the
accelerator before or during
starting. Only use the accelerator
pedal 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.
Do not park, idle, or drive
your vehicle in dry grass or
other dry ground cover. The
emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust
system, which can start a fire.
