Starting & Driving 117 Driving & Operating S ta rting & Driv in gSTEERING COLUMN LOCK The starter switch and steering column lock is located on the centre console, forward of the handbrake. To unlock the steering column Insert the key into the starter switch. To lock the steering column Remove the key from the starter switch. NOTE: The gear selector MUST be in the ‘P’ (park) position, before the starter key can be removed. WARNING Once the steering lock is engaged, it is impossible to steer the vehicle. DO NOT remove the key while the vehicle is in motion.NOTE: Once removed, the starter key should not be left in close proximity to the starter switch. This can lead to the steering column lock operating repeatedly, discharging the vehicle battery. STARTER SWITCH The starter switch uses the following sequence of key positions to operate the steering lock, electrical circuits and starter motor: Position ‘0’ •Steering locked (if key is removed). •Most lighting circuits are operational, including: sidelights, headlights and hazard warning lights. •With the driver’s door open, seat switches and seat memory facility operational. Position ‘I’ •Steering unlocked. •Steering wheel adjusts to set driving position. •Clock, audio system and cigar lighter can now be operated. Position ‘II’ •All instruments, warning lights and electrical circuits are operational. Position ‘III’ •The starting sequence is initiated - release the key immediately the engine starts cranking (the key returns to position ‘II’). The engine will continue to crank automatically until the engine starts. Note that operation of position ‘I’ electrical functions will be interrupted during engine cranking. NOTE: The gear selector position ‘P’ or ‘N’ must be selected before the engine will start. H3923
Starting & Driving 118 STARTING - Petrol models WARNING Never start or leave the engine running in an unventilated building - exhaust gases are poisonous and contain carbon monoxide, which can cause unconsciousness and may even be fatal. Before starting the engine and driving, ENSURE you are familiar with the precautions shown under ‘CATALYTIC CONVERTER*’, page 122. In particular, you should be aware that if the engine fails to start, continued use of the starter may result in unburnt fuel damaging the catalytic converter. 1.Check that the handbrake is applied and that the gear selector is in the ‘P’ (Park) or ‘N’ (Neutral) position. 2.Switch off all unnecessary electrical equipment. 3.Turn the starter switch to position ‘II’ and then on to position ‘III’ to operate the starter motor. DO NOT press the accelerator pedal while starting, and RELEASE THE KEY as soon as the engine starts cranking (the engine will automatically continue cranking until the engine starts). If the engine stalls or fails to start, you MUST return the starter switch to position ‘I’ before attempting to restart; the engine will not start by turning the starter switch from position ‘II’. NOTE: The battery charging and oil pressure warning lights should extinguish as soon as the engine is running.Cold climates In very cold climates the oil pressure warning light may take several seconds to extinguish. Similarly, engine cranking times will also increase; at -30°C the starter motor may operate 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. After starting Ensure that the handbrake and foot brake are firmly applied and the accelerator pedal is not depressed while moving the gear selector lever from ‘N’ or ‘P’, otherwise, the vehicle may move immediately the selector lever is moved to one of the drive positions (‘D’ or ‘R’). This is particularly important when the engine is cold, because the engine will be idling at a faster speed than normal. NOTE: The foot brake MUST be applied, before the gear selection lever can be moved out of ‘P’ or ‘N’ into a drive position.
Starting & Driving 119 STARTING - Diesel models WARNING Never start or leave the engine running in an unventilated building - exhaust gases are poisonous and contain carbon monoxide, which can cause unconsciousness and may even be fatal. Before starting the engine and driving, ENSURE you are familiar with the precautions shown under ‘CATALYTIC CONVERTER*’, page 122. 1.Check that the handbrake is applied and that the gear selector is in the ‘P’ (Park) or ‘N’ (Neutral) position. 2.Switch off all unnecessary electrical equipment. 3.Insert the starter key and turn the switch to position ‘II’. Wait until the glow plug warning light extinguishes. NOTE: The waiting time will vary according to the engine coolant temperature (when the engine is hot, the glow plug warning light will extinguish almost immediately, or may not illuminate at all). 4.Turn the key to position ‘III’ to operate the starter motor. DO NOT press the accelerator pedal while starting. RELEASE THE KEY as soon as the engine is running. If the engine stalls or fails to start, you MUST return the starter switch to position ‘I’ before attempting to restart; the engine will not start by turning the starter switch from position ‘II’. In temperate climates DO NOT operate the starter for longer than 10 seconds. If the engine fails to start, switch off and wait 10 seconds before re-using the starter. NOTE: Continued use of the starter will not only discharge the battery, but may cause damage to the starter motor.NOTE: The battery charging and oil pressure warning lights should extinguish as soon as the engine is running. Precautions •The diesel engine must not be run above idle speed until the oil pressure warning light extinguishes. This will ensure that the engine and turbo-charger bearings are properly lubricated before being run at speed. •Similarly, ALWAYS allow the engine to idle for 10 seconds before switching off. Cold climates In very cold climates the oil pressure warning light 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. After starting Ensure that the handbrake and foot brake are firmly applied and the accelerator pedal is not depressed while moving the gear selector lever from ‘N’ or ‘P’, otherwise, the vehicle may move immediately the selector lever is moved to one of the drive positions (D or R). This is particularly important when the engine is cold, because the engine will be idling at a faster speed than normal. NOTE: The foot brake MUST be applied, before the gear selection lever can be moved out of ‘P’ or ‘N’ into a drive position.
