will engage, and the engine will crank until it starts
(five second maximum).
3 If the engine does not start, move the key back to
O and repeat step 2.
During engine operation breaks, you can leave the key
at I to operate electronics that require power when the
engine is not running. This will not damage the ignition
system.

the key to S (Start) and holding the key will NOT start
the engine. You must move the key back to O (Off) and
