and release the button once.
Start: Starts your vehicle. The engine may
not start when your vehicle starts.

the button for any length of time. An

vehicle starts.
WARNING: 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...
When you start the engine, the idle speed
increases. This helps to warm up the
engine. If the engine idle speed does not
slow down, have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible...
Other information:
WARNING: The system does not
replace the parking brake. When you leave
your vehicle, always apply the parking
brake.
WARNING: You must remain in your
vehicle when the system turns on. At all
times, you are responsible for controlling
your vehicle, supervising the system and
intervening, if required...
WARNING:
Before working on or disconnecting any of the fuel tubes or fuel
system components, relieve the fuel system pressure to prevent
accidental spraying of fuel. Fuel in the fuel system remains under high
pressure, even when the engine is not running...
