Starting and Stopping the EngineThe immobilizer can be deactivated and the
engine started only using an authorised
ignition key.
fPlease see the chapter “IMMOBILIZER” on
page 250.
Warning!
Risk of poisoning. Exhaust gas contains
colorless and odorless carbon monoxide
(CO), which is toxic even in low
concentrations. Carbon monoxide can cause
unconsciousness and even death if inhaled.
f Never start or let the engine run in an
enclosed, unventilated area. It is not
recommended to sit in your car for prolonged
periods with the engine on and the car not
moving.
An unattended vehicle with a running engine
is potentially hazardous. If warning lights
should come on to indicate improper
operation, they would go unnoticed.
f Never leave the engine idling unattended.
Danger of fire close to the hot exhaust
system.
f Do not park or drive your vehicle where
combustible materials, such as dry grass or
leaves, can come into contact with the hot
exhaust system. For information on the emission control system:
f
Please see the chapter “EMISSION CONTROL

the fire department. Do not endanger your life
by attempting to put out the fire.

f Move PDK selector lever to position P or N.
f Do not press the accelerator pedal.

completed automatically as soon as ignition
lock position 2 (start engine) is reached.

approx. 10 seconds. If necessary, repeat the
