NOTICE! For diesel engine models, start

For trucks with EZ pedal (Option), the engine

WARNING
•
When you turn on the key switch, be sure that you are in the normal seated position with
the seat belt fastened and the parking brake is applied. Otherwise, the truck may start
suddenly, leading to an unexpected accident.
•
Always start the engine with the direction control lever in the neutral position.
•
If the OPS indicator lamp is illuminated, return the direction control and load handling con
trol levers to the neutral positions and sit in the seat. Confirm that the OPS indicator lamp
is not illuminated.
•
When starting 1FS engine models (gasoline/ LPG), do not press the accelerator pedal.
•
Do not leave the key switch in the ON position when the engine is stopped. It will cause
the battery to over discharge.
•
Do not turn the switch to the START position while the engine is running (except trucks fit
ted with optional antirestart ignition key switch). This may damage the starter motor.
•
If your truck has an antirestart ignition key switch to protect the engine, you must turn the
switch from the ON position to the OFF position before attempting to start the engine
again.
•
Do not operate the starter motor for more than 30 seconds continuously. Return the
switch to the OFF position and wait at least 30 seconds prior to attempting restart.
•
When the key switch is turned off (engine stopped), the forks will not lower even if the lift
lever is operated. The forks can be lowered when the operator is seated in the operator's
seat and key switch is turned on (Keylift interlock).
•
If the diagnosis indicator lamp is illuminated and does not go off when you sit in the seat,
the battery voltage may be low (over discharged). In such case, do not operate the truck
until the indicator lamp turns off, because the truck may not operate correctly. If the dia
gnosis indicator lamp does not go off approximately 1 to 2 minutes after engine starts or
when the engine speed is increased, stop operation and have the truck inspected by the
Toyota dealer. (For diesel engine models, the diagnosis indicator lamp may stay illumin
ated during engine warmup after a cold engine start. This does not indicate a malfunc
tion.)
