Starting and driving
Starting the car
Before starting the engine
Apply the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox
Move the gear selector into position P
or N.
Manual gearbox
Move the gear lever into neutral and fully
depress the clutch pedal. This is particu-
larly important in very cold conditions.
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 temperature as quickly as possible,
which minimises exhaust emissions and
protects the environment.
NOTE! The master key blade must be fully
extended (as illustrated on page 102) when
starting the car. Otherwise there is a risk that
the immobiliser function will prevent the car
from starting.
Starting the engine
Petrol
Turn the ignition key to the start position.
If the engine does not start within 5-
10 seconds, release the key and repeat
the start attempt.
Diesel
Turn the ignition key to the drive position.
An indicator symbol in the combined
instrument panel illuminates to show that
engine preheating is underway.
Turn the ignition key to the start position
when the indicator symbol goes out.
Diesel particle filter (DPF)
Diesel cars are equipped with a particle filter,
which results in more efficient emission
control. The particles in the exhaust gases
are collected in the filter during normal
driving. So-called "regeneration" is started in
order to burn away the particles and empty
the filter. This requires the engine to have
reached normal operating temperature.
Regeneration of the filter takes place
automatically at an interval of approximately
300 —900 km depending on driving condi-
tions. Regeneration normally takes between
10 and 20 minutes. During this time fuel
consumption may increase slightly.
Regeneration in cold weather
If the car is frequently driven short distances
in cold weather then the engine does not
reach normal operating temperature. This
means that regeneration of the diesel particle
filter does not take place and the filter is not
emptied.
When the filter has become approximately
80 % full of particles, a yellow warning
triangle illuminates on the dashboard, and the
message, SOOT FILTER FULL SEE
MANUAL is shown on the dashboard display.
Start regeneration of the filter by driving the
car until the engine reaches normal operating
temperature, preferably on a main road or
motorway. The car should then be driven for
approximately 20
minutes more. When
regeneration is underway the engine power is
reduced.
When regeneration is complete the warning
message is cleared automatically.
Use the parking heater (option) in cold
weather so that the engine reaches normal
operating temperature more quickly.
WARNING!
Never remove the ignition key from the
steering lock while driving or when the car
is being towed. The steering lock could
otherwise be activated, making it impos-
sible to steer the car.
The ignition key must be in position II
when the car is towed.
