Starting the engine Switching off the engine Parking brake

If the engine does not start on the first

attempt (if it is very hot or cold, for

instance):

> Press the accelerator pedal halfway

down while engaging the starter.

Cold starts at very low temperatures,

starting at approx. 5 7 (–15 6) and at

high altitudes (over 1,000 meters):

> On the first start attempt, engage the

starter for a longer period (approx.

10 seconds)

> Press the accelerator pedal halfway

down while engaging the starter.

Engine idle speed is controlled by the

engine computer system. Increased

speeds at startup are normal and

should decrease as the engine warms

up. If engine speed does not decrease,

service is required.

To prevent the battery from

discharging, always deactivate elec-

trical devices that are not in use. Switch

the ignition off when the vehicle is not

being driven.

Turn the ignition key to position 1 or 0.

Do not remove the ignition key

while the vehicle is still moving.

If you did so, the steering lock would

engage when the steering wheel is

turned.

When you leave the vehicle, always

remove the ignition key and engage the

steering lock.

Set the parking brake when parking on

steep hills, because under certain

conditions, putting the vehicle into first

or reverse gear may not be enough to

prevent it from rolling away.

The power assist is not available when

the engine is not on. This means that

more effort is required for braking.<

The parking brake is designed primarily

to prevent the vehicle from rolling when

it is parked. It operates against the rear

wheels.

To engage

The lever engages automatically, the

indicator lamp in the instrument cluster

comes on when the ignition key is in

position 2. Refer to page 21.

To release

Pull up slightly on the lever, press the

button (arrow) and lower the lever.

If, in exceptional circumstances,

it should be necessary to engage

the parking brake while the vehicle is

in motion, do not pull the lever with
