Full closing in cold or when the engine is cold.

original point.

When the engine starts, open the choke lever.
Open the choke lever progressively while checking the engine operation.
Be sure to open the choke lever to the full in the end.
In cold or when the engine is cooled down, never open the choke lever
suddenly. Otherwise, the engine may stop.
