Starting and driving
Starting the engine
Avoid racing the engine or loading it heavily
before it has warmed up. Do not drive away
before the warning and indicator lights have
gone out.
The engine has an automatic choke and
should be started as follows:
Cars with manual gearbox
1 Make sure the handbrake is applied.
2 Depress the clutch and brake pedals.
Do not touch the accelerator.
Note: Once the engine has started, the
brake pedal will normally drop slightly.
3 Start the engine. Allow the remote con-
trol to spring back once the engine has
started and is running smoothly.
Allow the engine to idle for about
10 seconds. Do not apply full throttle for at
least 3 minutes after starting.
Cars with automatic transmission
1 The selector lever must be in the P or
N position.
2 Depress the brake pedal.
Note: Once the engine has started, the
brake pedal will normally drop slightly.
3 Start the engine. Allow the remote con-
trol to spring back once the engine has
started and is running smoothly.
Allow the engine to idle for about 10 sec-
onds. Do not apply full throttle for at
least 3 minutes after starting.
Useful tips on starting
Petrol engine
If the engine has failed to start after several
attempts in severe cold, proceed as follows:
1 Turn the ignition witch to position 3 (it is
vital that the ignition switch is turned to
position 3 before the accelerator is
depressed).
2 Press the accelerator to the floor and run
the starter motor for 5–10 seconds. This
will prevent the engine from being
flooded (fully depressed accelerator
cuts off the fuel supply).
3 Now start the engine in the normal way -
do not touch the accelerator.
If the engine stalls immediately after starting
(e.g. if the clutch was released too quickly),
do not touch the accelerator when restarting
the engine.
If the car has a fuel-driven parking heater
3
,
this will start automatically soon after the
engine has been started if coolant tempera-
ture is below 84 °C. This helps the engine
temperature and cabin temperature rise
more quickly.
