Warm-up engine in maintenance mode?
 
It's freezing here in Michigan, and I'll be using my CC in a parade tomorrow. I'd like to warm the engine for a couple of minutes before using it.

Should I twist the knob under the seat to put it in maintenance mode, start it, and keep it running for 2 minutes or so? Will it even do that without damaging something?

Search didn't provide the results I was seeking. Thanks so much for all of the help on this site.

Yes, you can do that.

I've had my cart out a couple of times this winter, most recently to play in the snow we got last weekend. The maintenance-mode warm up is normal routine for me. About a minute is all mine really needs and I'm good to go.

Thank you both. I did it, and it worked.

Looks like we may get more snow this weekend, hope to have it out again.

Love your signature "Love stuff that runs on fossil fuel". I do too!
