Starting the engine
Never run the engine in enclosed spaces,
as inhaling the harmful exhaust gas can
lead to loss of consciousness with fatal conse-
quences. The exhaust gas contains carbon mon-
oxide, which is colourless and odourless, but
highly toxic. Do not leave the car unattended
with the engine running, as this constitutes a
hazard.
Before leaving the car with the engine running,
place the gearbox in idle or move the selector
lever to position P and fully apply the handbrake
to prevent the car from moving.
<
Avoid starting, stopping and restarting the
engine in rapid succession or repeated
attempts to start the engine if it does not fire,
otherwise unburned or only partially combusted
fuel could reach the catalytic converter, which
could overheat and sustain damage as a
result.
<
Do not warm up the engine with the car at a
standstill; it is preferable to set off straight away,
driving at moderate engine speeds.
Do not press the accelerator pedal while starting
the engine.

Diesel engine
When the engine is cold and the temperature
falls below approx. 0
6 /32 7 , starting may be
somewhat delayed by automatic preheating.
The preheat indicator light in the revo-
lution counter comes on.
Stopping the engine
Always take the key with you when you
leave the vehicle.
When parking on an incline, fully apply the
handbrake, otherwise the car could begin to
roll.
