Starting Procedure
WARNING
If you start the engine inside a build-
ing, open the doors fully to ensure ad-
equate ventilation. Exhaust gases con-
tain carbon monoxide, an invisible,
odorless, but highly toxic gas. Inhala-
tion of these gases may cause uncon-
sciousness and death.
1. Check that the parking brake is
engaged.
2. Depress the clutch pedal and put the
gear lever in neutral.
3. Switch the ignition to position D.
4. Check that the warning indicator of the
parking brake lights up.
5. Check that the oil pressure warning
symbol in the master display is lit.
6. Check the operation of the fuel gauge
and the coolant temperature gauge.
7. Check that the glow system warning
lamp is off.
8. Without pressing the accelerator pedal
down, turn the ignition to position S. If
the engine does not start; the key
must be released after 10 seconds.
Then wait 10 seconds and try again.
NOTE
The vehicle is equipped with start pro-
tection. The gear must be in neutral oth-
erwise the start protection device will not
allow the starter motor to activate.
If the engine is running, the engine
speed may not be increased before the
oil pressure warning symbol has extin-
guished.
NOTE
Depending on the coolant temperature
measured by the electronic unit, it is
possible that, in extremely cold condi-
tions, the maximum engine speed is
limited for a specific period of time.
In case of an optional engine speed
control, one of various engine speeds can
be selected with the right-hand steering
column switch, if so desired.
Before driving away, check that the central
"STOP" warning light is not illuminated.
Tips to Remember When Starting
Vehicle in Cold Weather
In cold weather, fast engine starting helps
relieve the loads on the electrical system
and cranking motor. Using the special cold
starting equipment will help starting.
If you follow a few simple guidelines, you
will extend the service life of your engine:
• Keep the electrical system in top
condition.
• Use the best quality fuel of the
recommended grade.
• Use recommended engine
lubricating oil.
• For manual transmissions and
auxiliary transmissions, leave the
transmission in neutral and allow
the transmission lubricating oil to
warm up (approximately 3-5
minutes) before operating vehicle.
