ON This is the normal running position after the engine is started. The warning lights (except brakes) should be inspected before the engine is started (page 5-39). NOTE Engine-starting is controlled by the spark ignition system. This system meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Standard requirements regulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio noise. The advanced key must be carried because the advanced key carries an immobilizer chip that must communicate with the engine controls at short range. When starting the engine, be sure the start knob is securely attached before trying to operate it. If the knob becomes detached from the ignition switch, re-attach it by pushing it on to the ignition switch. l l When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the sound of the fuel pump motor operating near the fuel tank can be heard. This does not indicate an abnormality. START The engine is started in this position. It will crank until you release the start knob; then it returns to the ON position. The brake warning light can be checked after the engine is started (page 5-39). 1. Make sure the advanced key is being carried. 2. Occupants should fasten their seat belts. 3. Make sure the parking brake is on. 4. Depress the brake pedal. 3-11 Form No.8V89-EA-06F
