Push starting

Do not attempt to start the engine by pushing.
CAUTION
► Automatic transmission models cannot
be push-started or tow-started. Attempting
to do so may cause transmission
damage.
► Three way catalyst equipped models
should not be started by pushing since
the three way catalyst may be damaged.
► Never try to start the vehicle by towing
it; when the engine starts, the forward
surge could cause the vehicle to collide
with the tow vehicle.
If needed, Roadside Assistance is available. Please see your Warranty Information Booklet or Roadside Assistance I.D. Card for the toll-free number to call (U.S.) or Warranty & Roadside Assistance Information Booklet (Canada).
