Starting the engine
06
Petrol
Diesel
At low temperatures (–5 C to –40 C), a
paraffin precipitate may form in the diesel
fuel, which can lead to ignition problems.
Before starting the engine
– Apply the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox
– Gear selector in position P or N .
Manual gearbox
Put the gear lever in neutral and hold the
clutch pedal fully depressed. This is particu-
larly important in very cold conditions.
Starting the engine
Petrol
– Turn the ignition key to position III .
If the engine does not start within
5–10 seconds, release the key and try
again.
Diesel
– Turn the ignition key to position II .
An indicator symbol in the combined
instrument panel shows that engine pre-
heating is underway, see page 41.
– Turn the ignition key to position III when
the indicator symbol goes out.
Autostart (5-cylinder)
With the autostart function, there is no need
to hold the ignition key (or ignition dial on
cars with Keyless Drive, see page 122) in
position
III until the engine has started.
Turn the ignition key to the start position and
then release. The starter motor then works
automatically until the engine has started.
IMPORTANT
Do not add cleaning additives to the petrol,
unless recommended by Volvo.
IMPORTANT
Use special winter grade fuel during cold
months.
WARNING
Never remove the ignition key from the
steering lock while driving or when the car is
being towed. The steering lock could other-
wise be activated, making it impossible to
steer the car.
The ignition key must be in position II when
the car is being towed.
NOTE
The idling speed can be noticeably higher
than normal for certain engine types during
cold starting. This is so that the emissions
system can reach normal operating temper-
ature as quickly as possible, which mini-
mises exhaust emissions and protects the
environment.
NOTE
If the diesel engine is started in extreme
cold without waiting for engine preheating,
then the automatic start sequence can be
delayed for a couple of seconds.
