Cold climates
In very cold climates, the battery charging and
oil pressure warning lights may take several
seconds to extinguish. Similarly, engine
cranking times will also increase; at -30° C the
starter motor may need to be operated
continuously for as long as 30 seconds before
the engine will start. For this reason, ensure
that all non-essential electrical equipment is
switched off.
Warming up
In the interests of fuel economy, it is advisable
to start driving straight away, remembering
that harsh acceleration or labouring the engine
before the normal operating temperature has
been reached can damage the engine.
WARNING
The engine must not be run above fast idle
speed until the oil pressure warning light
extinguishes to ensure that the engine and
turbo-charger bearings are properly
lubricated before being run at speed.
WARNING
Exhaust fumes contain poisonous
substances which can cause
unconsciousness and may even be fatal.
• DO NOT inhale exhaust gases.
• DO NOT start or leave the engine running
in an enclosed unventilated area, or
drive with the rear door open.
• DO NOT modify the exhaust system from
the original design.
• DO repair exhaust system or body leaks
immediately.
• If you think exhaust fumes are entering
the vehicle have the cause determined
and corrected immediately.
Switching off
To avoid the possibility of damaging the
turbo-charger bearings through inadequate
lubrication, ALWAYS allow the engine to idle
for 10 seconds before switching off. Turn the
engine off by returning the starter switch to
position ’I’ and then position ’0’ to remove
key.
