STARTING AND DRIVING
132
217) Make sure that the ignition device is
in the OFF position, remove the key fob
from the vehicle and lock the vehicle.
218) Never leave children alone in a
vehicle, or with access to an unlocked
vehicle. Allowing children to be in a
vehicle unattended is dangerous for
a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch
the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift
level.
219) Do not leave the Key Fob in or near
the car or in a location accessible to
children, and do not leave the ignition
device of a vehicle equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go system in the RUN mode. A
child could operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle
220) Never pour fuel or other flammable
liquid into the throttle body air inlet
opening in an attempt to start the vehicle.
This could result in flash fire causing
serious personal injury.
221) Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
222) If the battery is flat, you can jump
start the vehicle by connecting the
battery with an auxiliary one or with one
on another vehicle using suitable cables.
This type of start can be dangerous if
done improperly. Refer to “Jump-starting
procedure” in “In case of emergency” for
further information.
IMPORTANT
34) A quick burst on the accelerator
before turning off the engine serves
absolutely no practical purpose; it wastes
fuel and is damaging for the engine.
35) Damage to the dual clutch automatic
transmission may occur if the following
precautions are not observed. Do not
shift between P (Park), R (Reverse), N
(Neutral), or D (Drive) when the engine
is above idle speed. Shift into or out of
P (Park) or R (Reverse) only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop.
Before shifting into any gear, make sure
your foot is firmly pressing on the brake
pedal.
36) If the symbol remains on, DO
NOT START the engine before draining
water from the fuel filters to prevent
engine damage.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR
BREAKING IN THE ENGINE
A long break-in period is not required for
the engine and drivetrain (transmission
and axle) in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first
500 km. After the initial 100 km, it is
advisable to increase the speed to 80 -
90 km/h.
While cruising, brief full-throttle
acceleration within the limits of local
traffic laws contributes to a good break-
in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low
gear can be detrimental and should be
avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine
at the factory is a high-quality
energy conserving type lubricant.
For the recommended viscosity and
quality grades, refer to the “Engine
Compartment” chapter in the
“Maintenance and care” section.
37)
NOTE A new engine can consume a
certain amount of oil and fuel during the
first thousand kilometers of use. This
should be considered a normal part of
the break-in and not interpreted as a
problem.
