Push starting

CAUTION

● Do not push start this vehicle. The three-way catalyst may be damaged.
● Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) models cannot be push-started or tow-started. Attempting to do so may cause transmission damage.
● For manual transmission (M/T) models, 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.
