Safety mode - attempting to start the car
If the car is set in safety mode (p. 37) then an attempt to start the car can be made if every-thing seems normal and the absence of fuelleakage has been checked. First, check that no fuel is leaking from the car. There must be no smell of fuel either. If everything seems normal and you have checked for indications of fuel leakage, youmay attempt to start the car. Remove the remote control key and open the driver's door. If a message is now shown tothe effect that the ignition is on, press thestart button. Then close the door and reinsertthe remote control key. The car's electronicswill now try to reset themselves to normalmode. Then try to start the car. If the message
