Normal Starting of the
Engine
WARNING!
It is dangerous to run the engine in an
enclosed area. The engine consumes
oxygen and discharges carbon
dioxide, carbon monoxide and other
toxic gases in the atmosphere.
WARNING!
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining
a passenger vehicle or off-road vehicle
can expose you to chemicals including
such as, engine exhaust, carbon
monoxide, phthalates and lead, that
which are know to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except
as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when
servicing your vehicle. For more
information go to:www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-
vehicle
When you open a door to get into the
car, the instrument cluster turns on.
The TFT displays the complete
odometer, time, outside temperature
and the
open doors indicator.
Before starting the engine, close the
doors, adjust your seat, the inside and
outside mirrors, fasten your seat belt
and instruct all other occupants to
buckle their seat belts.
Make sure that the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) is applied.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position before you can start
the engine. Apply the brakes before
shifting into any driving gear (see
“Automatic Transmission” in this
section).
CAUTION!
• Before starting the engine, switch off
the electrical devices with a high
power consumption (air-conditioning
and heating system, heated rear
window, headlights, etc.).
• Do not start the engine if the fuel
level in the tank is low.
Press the brake pedal and turn the key
in the ignition switch toMAR (ON)
position.
Instrument cluster displays the initial
sequence with warning light and
analog instruments test routine.
Turn the key intoAVVposition and
release it when the engine starts. The
key will return toMAR (ON)position
automatically.
Do not hold the key inAVVposition
for a long time.
If the engine fails to start, the starter
will disengage automatically after 10
seconds. If you wish to stop the
cranking of the engine prior to
starting it, turn the key toSTOP (OFF)
position.
If the engine does not start, turn the
key toSTOP (OFF)position and wait
for the gear display to go off. Then
repeat the entire procedure.
NOTE:
Normal starting of either a cold or a
warm engine is obtained without
pumping or pressing the accelerator
pedal.

Engine Start Failure
CAUTION!
• Do not attempt to push or tow your
vehicle to get it started. Vehicles
equipped with an automatic
transmission cannot be started this
way.
• If the vehicle battery is dead, booster
cables may be used to obtain a start
from a booster battery or the
battery in another vehicle. This type
of start can be dangerous if done
improperly. See “Auxiliary Jump
Start Procedure” in section “In an
Emergency” for further information.
Starting by cold engine
Start-off slowly, avoiding sudden
acceleration and rev the engine up at
low medium speeds. High-
performance driving should be
avoided until the engine temperature
reaches 65-70°C (149-158°F).
Engine Turn-Off
• Place the shift lever in P (Park) (see
“Automatic Transmission” in this
section).
• With the engine at idle, turn the key
in the ignition switch toSTOP (OFF)position. A burst on the accelerator
pedal before turning off the engine
has no purpose and increases fuel
consumption.
WARNING!
Never leave a vehicle out of the P
(Park) position, as it could move.
The key can only be removed from the
ignition switch when the transmission
is in P (Park) position and within 30
seconds after turning the key toSTOP
(OFF)position. If you do not remove
the key within 30 seconds, you will
need to turn it back toMAR (ON)and
then toSTOP (OFF)position to have a
further 30 seconds within which to
remove the key from the ignition
switch.
In the event that the key unlocking
system fails or if it is not possible to
shift the transmission to P (Park)
position, to remove the key you must
turn it toSTOP (OFF)position, then
remove the cap shown in picture using
a pen or sufficiently pointed tool.
Then press the button just uncovered
and at the same time extract the key
from the ignition switch. Once the key
has been removed, refit the removed
cap.
