That's the correct procedure if I'm remembering correctly. Some people say floor it first THEN turn the key to pos 2 w/o starting and wait 20-30 secs. Others turn the key first then do the accelerator part.

Also, I believe you're supposed to hear a click after the 20-30 sec hold on the accelerator (not a click from the accelerator when pushing down).
