Starting
the
engine
General
hints
Attention
When
starting
the
engine
in con
fined
spaces
there
is a
danger
of poisoning.
• Before starting, move gear lever to neu- ml
(with
automatic gearbox, selector lever -
"P"
or "N" position) and apply handbrake
I 'mly.
• On vehicles
with
a manual gearbox de-
:"9ss
the clutch pedal when operating
=:arter
so
that
starter only has to
turn
en
gine.
• As soon as engine starts, release the gnition key so
that
starter can disengage.
• After starting a cold engine it may sound
_oisy
for a moment or two because the oil pressure has to build up in the hydraulic
tappets
first.
This is normal and no cause for
a
arm. Do not
warm
engine
up by run-
W>
ning
it
with
vehicle
stationary.
Drive
off
straight
away.
Do
not overrev or use
full
throttle
until the
engine has reached the normal operating
Temperature. • On vehicles
with
a
catalytic
con
verter
the
engine
must
not be
started
by
towing
the
vehicle
in ex
cess
of 50 m.
Otherwise
unburnt
fuel
can pass
into
the
converter
and
lead
to
damage.
•
Before
trying
to
start
engine
by
towing,
the
battery
from
another
ve
hicle
should be used for
starting
if
possible - see
page
130.
Petrol
engines
These
engines are equipped
with
a cer: ~-
jection system
that
automatically s^c; es the correct fuel/air mixture at ail anc e~:
temperatures.
When
engine is cold or at
operating
temperature
do not accelerate before or
during the starting procedure.
Applicable to all engines:
If the engine does not start at once, stop
using
the starter after 10
sees,
wait about
half a minute and then try again. If the engine still does not start, the electric
fuel pump fuse may have blown - see page
122.
When
the engine is
very
hot it may be
necessary
to accelerate slightly after the
engine has started.

is
approx. 7.0 kW.
Notes
• If the coolant temperature in the heater circuit reaches 55 degrees C, the fresh air
blower is automatically switched to stage 2.
• The additional water heater will only switch on when the temperature selector
lever
(see page 55, lever C) is pushed fully

• When driving across country through mud or deep snow the heater exhaust pipe
can
become blocked. Therefore under

DO-IT-YOURSELF
Tow
starting
The
following
points
must
be
noted
when
tow
starting:
•
Before
moving off, engage 2nd or 3rd gear.
• Switch ignition on.
• As soon as engine starts, depress clutch and move gear lever
into
neutral to avoid running
into
the towing vehicle.
• On
vehicles
with
a
catalytic
con
verter
the
engine
must
not be
started
by
towing
the
vehicle
in ex
cess of 50 m1. Because
then,
un-
burnt
fuel
can pass
into
the con
verter
and cause
damage.
• For
technical
reasons tow
start
ing a
vehicle
with
an
automatic
gearbox
is not possible.
Towing
When
towing
vehicles
with
an
auto
matic
gearbox,
the following points must be noted in addition to the details on
the previous page:
• Selector lever at "N".
• Do not have the vehicle towed faster than 30 mph (50 km/h).
• To not tow
further
than 30 miles (50 kilo meters). If the vehicle has to be towed long distances
it must be
lifted
at the
front.
Reason:
When the engine is not running,
the gearbox oil pump is not working and the
gearbox is not adequately lubricated for high speeds or long distances.
• With a breakdown vehicle the vehicle may only be suspended at the
front.
Reason:
If given a rear suspended tow, the
drive shafts
turn
backwards. The planetary
gears
in the automatic gearbox then
turn
at
such
high speeds
that
the gearbox will be
severely
damaged in a short time.
Does
not apply to 50 kW Diesel engine
with
catalytic converter
