Starting Make a habit of visually checking the engine, engine bay and transmission before start. This will help you to discover quickly if anything abnormal has happened, or is about to happen. Also check that instruments and warning displays show normal values when you have started the engine. To minimize cold start smoke we recommend the installation of an engine heater or engine bay heater if temperatures below +5° C are encountered.

WARNING! Never use start spray or similar products as starting aid. Explosion risk!

Before Starting • Open the fuel cock. • Open the sea cock where fitted. • Check the engine and transmission oil level. • Check the coolant level. • Turn the main switches on. IMPORTANT! Never disconnect the current with the main switches when the engine is running. The alternator and electronics could be damaged.

• Start the engine bay fan, where fitted, and allow it to run for at least four minutes.

• Check that there is sufficient fuel for the planned trip. 1 0 P0005850
