DRIVING YOUR CAR

HOW TO WARM UP
THE ENGINE AFTER
IT HAS JUST STARTED
– Begin to move forward slowly let-
ting the engine turning at medium revs.
Do not accelerate abruptly.
– Do not push the engine to its lim-
it for the first kilometres. You are rec-
ommended to wait until the water
temperature has reached 50° to 60°C.
BUMP STARTING
For versions with a cat-
alytic converter, bump
starting by pushing, tow-
ing or rolling downhill must be
avoided at all costs. This ma-
noeuvre could cause a rush of fu-
el into the catalytic exhaust pipe
and damage it beyond repair.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition key to
S
while the
engine is idling.
Remember that as long
as the engine is not run-
ning, the power brakes
and power steering do not work.
You therefore have to use con-
siderably more effort on both the
brake pedal and the steering
wheel than you would do other-
wise.
Gunning the accelerator
before turning off the en-
gine serves absolutely no
practical purpose, wastes fuel and
is damaging, particularly to tur-
bocharged engines.
IMPORTANT
After a taxing drive,
it is better to allow the engine to
“catch its breath” before turning it off
by letting it idle to allow the temper-
ature in the engine compartment to
fall.
