IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
322
(b) Starting a supercharged
engine (gasoline engine)
(c) When you run out of fuel
and the engine goes out (diesel engine)
When the engine cannot be started, it may be
oversaturated due to repeated starts.
If this happens, turn the key to the "START" position with
the accelerator pedal fully depressed. Hold the key and
gas pedal in this position for 15 seconds and release
them. Then try to start the engine without depressing the
gas pedal.
If the engine does not start after 15 seconds of starting,
release the key, wait a few minutes and try to start the
engine again.
If the engine still cannot be started, it needs adjustment
or repair. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or service
center, or another properly qualified and equipped
professional.
Restart the engine as follows:
1. Fill the vehicle with fuel.
2. Pump fuel with the hand pump until you feel more
resistance to bleed the fuel system
NOTICE
Do not rev the engine continuously for more than
30 seconds. This could cause the starter motor and
wiring systems to overheat.
3. Start the engine when it starts.
If the engine does not start within 30 seconds of
cranking, wait 10 seconds and try step 2 and step 3
again.
If the engine still does not start, contact any
authorized Toyota dealer or service center, or
another properly qualified and equipped specialist.
4. After starting the engine, lightly depress the gas pedal
until the engine runs smoothly.
