5.1.2 Engine start
– Enter the car with the intelligent remote
control key.
– Make sure the “P” or “N” position is engaged.
– Depress the brake pedal and ensure that the
engine start/stop button indicator lamp turns
green.
– Press the engine start/stop button to start the
engine.
NOTE
• In case of a cold start, run the engine at
idle speed to allow it to warm up before
driving. At the same time, because the
valve tappet takes a few seconds to reach
the normal working pressure, operating
noise will be heard, which is normal.
• If the engine cannot be started normally
due to the brake signal, you can try to
switch the engine start/stop button to “ACC”
position. Ensure that the transmission is in
the “P” or “N” position, and press and hold
the engine start/stop button for 15 seconds
to force the engine to start.
NOTE
• The engine start time cannot exceed 15s. If
the engine is not started successfully, you
must wait about 30s before next attempt.
• Do not depress the accelerator pedal hard
after starting to make the engine run at high
speed or overload, otherwise the engine
will easily be damaged.
• If the battery level is low and the engine
cannot be started, try to start it by a jumper
cable.
=> See Page 276
• Never start the engine by pushing or
pulling.
WARNING
• Do not start the engine for a long time in
a poorly ventilated place or an enclosed
room. The engine exhaust contains
harmful gases, which can make people
comatose and even suffocate.
• Never let the engine idle at unattended
condition.
• Never install start aids to start the
engine. Otherwise, the engine may run
at high speed or explode.
