2003 VOLVO XC70
For cold starts at altitudes above 6000 ft (1800 meters), depress the \
accelerator pedal halfway and turn
the key to the starting position. Release the pedal slowly when the engi\
ne starts.
NOTE:
On certain models, when the car is started, idle speed may be noticeably\
higher than normal for a short
period, depending on the temperature of the engine.
This has been done to help bring components in the emission control syst\
em to their normal operating
temperature as quickly as possible, which enables them to function norma\
lly.
4. To release the gear selector from the (P)ark position, the engine m\
ust be running (or the ignition key
must be in position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed.
5. Select the desired gear. The gear engages after a very slight delay w\
hich is especially noticeable when
selecting R.
NOTE:
l Your car is equipped with a KEYLOCK system. When the engine is switched off, the gear selector
must be in the (P)ark position before the key can be removed from the \
ignition switch.
l When starting in cold weather, the transmission may shift up at slightly\
higher engine speeds than
normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating t\
emperature.
* Your car is equipped with an electronic start inhibitor (immobilizer)\
. The keys you received with your
car are specially coded. The code in the key is transmitted to an antenn\
a in the ignition switch where it is
compared to the code stored in the start inhibitor module. The car can o\
nly be started if a properly coded
key is used.
If two of the keys to your car are close together, e.g., on the same key\
ring, when you try to start the car,
this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and result in th\
e car not starting. If this should
occur, remove one of the keys from the key ring before trying to start t\
he car again.

pg. 88 Starting the engine
CAUTION:
l The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accel\
erate until after you feel the
transmission engage! Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear wil\
l cause harsh engagement and
premature transmission wear.
l Selecting P or N when idling at a standstill for prolonged periods time \
will help prevent overheating
of the automatic transmission fluid.
l Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting. Oil flow may not r\
each some lubrication points
fast enough to prevent engine damage.
