Before launch
When starting an electronic injection engine, do not press the accelerator pedal before or during starting..
Long-term operation of the engine at high speed causes a significant increase in the temperature of the engine and exhaust system, which may result in fire or other damage. Therefore, do not park your vehicle near dry grass or other dry surfaces.
Do not run the vehicle for long periods of time in a closed garage or other tight spaces, as exhaust fumes are harmful. Open the garage door before starting the engine.
