Subaru Crosstrek Owners Manual: CVT models
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn off unnecessary lights and accessories.
3. Shift the select lever to the "P" or "N" position (preferably the "P" position).
The starter motor will only operate when the select lever is at the "P" or "N" position.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and check the operation of the warning and indicator lights. Refer to "Warning and indicator lights" F3-13.
5. Turn the ignition switch to the "START" position without depressing the accelerator pedal. Release the key immediately after the engine has started.
If the engine does not start, try the following procedure.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"/"OFF" position and wait for at least 10 seconds. After checking that the parking brake is firmly set, turn the ignition switch to the "START" position while depressing the accelerator pedal slightly (approximately a quarter of the full stroke). Release the accelerator pedal as soon as the engine starts.
(2) If this fails to start the engine, turn the ignition switch back to the "LOCK"/ "OFF" position and wait for at least 10 seconds. Then fully depress the accelerator pedal and turn the ignition switch to the "START" position. If the engine starts, quickly release the accelerator pedal.
(3) If this fails to start the engine, turn the ignition switch again to the "LOCK"/"OFF" position. After waiting for 10 seconds or longer, turn the ignition switch to the "START" position without depressing the accelerator pedal.
(4) If the engine still refuses to start, contact your nearest SUBARU dealer for assistance.
6. Confirm that all warning and indicator lights have turned off after the engine has started. The fuel injection system automatically lowers the idle speed as the engine warms up.
While the engine is warming up, make sure that the select lever is at the "P" or "N" position and that the parking brake is applied.
CAUTION
If you restart the engine while the vehicle is moving, shift the select lever into the "N" position. Do not attempt to place the select lever of a moving vehicle into the "P" position.
