1. To activate cold weather starting device, turn key to ignition ON position (C).

   • Allow the engine ECU to complete the cycle of determining the ambient temperature and energize cold start aid relay for activating the heater, if necessary.
   • Once the cold start relay is active, count down timer (E) is displayed in the instrument cluster indicating the time required for heating the grid.
   
   

   IMPORTANT: Do Not start the engine until the count down timer (E) is completed to zero.

2. Depress clutch pedal and turn key to start position (D).

3. If engine runs rough, turn the key to stop/OFF position (B) and then to ignition ON position (C) to reactivate cold weather starting device until engine runs smoothly.

   NOTE: Anytime the engine is cranked and does not start, the ignition must be cycled from OFF to ON to reset the preheating cycle of the air heater.

4. Idle engine until it warms to operating temperature.
