possible to restart it to drive
a short distance by operating
the priming pump at least
10 times.

be reprimed:

- squeeze and release the manual priming pump at least 10 times.

protective cover which must fi rst
be unclipped and then removed,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.

Notes: if the engine does
not start after approximately
15 seconds, operate the priming
pump again approximately
fi fteen times before trying again.
If the emission control warning lamp
has come on, it will only switch off
after your vehicle has been used
several times.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is
too great or there is a reduction in
the performance of the system, the
parking brake should be adjusted,
even between services.
Have the system checked by a
