Starting & Driving
IGNITION SWITCH
The ignition switch is located to the right of the
steering column, and uses the following
sequence of key positions to operate the
steering lock, electrical circuits and ignition
motor:
NOTE:
On automatic models gear selector
position ‘P’ or ‘N’ must be selected before the
engine will start.
NOTE:
When the ignition switch is at position
‘II’, a short, low pitched ‘buzz’ may be heard;
this is the ABS system priming and is no cause
for concern, see ‘ANTI-LOCK BRAKES’,
page 128. The instruments and warning lights
will also prime.
H3522
Position ‘0’
•
Steering locked (if key is removed).
•
Most lighting circuits are operational,
including: sidelights, headlights and hazard
warning lights.
Position ‘I’
•
Steering unlocked.
•
Clock, radio/cassette player and cigar lighter
can now be operated.
Position ‘II’
•
All instruments, warning lights and
electrical circuits are operational.
Position ‘III’
•
Starter motor operates.
Release the key immediately the engine
starts (the key will automatically return to
position ‘II’). Note that operation of position
‘I’ electrical functions will be interrupted
during engine cranking.

Starting & Driving
STARTING
In cold weather, or when the battery is in a low
state of charge, on manual gearbox vehicles
depress the clutch pedal while starting and hold
it down until the engine is running. This will
reduce the load on the battery.
WARNING
Never start or leave the engine running in an
unventilated building - exhaust gases are
poisonous and contain carbon monoxide,
which can cause unconsciousness and may
even be fatal.
What to do if the engine fails to start, or starts
but will not continue running:
•
Press the accelerator pedal half way down
while operating the starter. DO NOT operate
the starter for more than 15 seconds and
release the accelerator as soon as the
engine fires.
Before starting the engine and driving, ENSURE
you are familiar with the precautions shown
under
‘CATALYTIC CONVERTER’, page 110
.
In particular, you should be aware that if the
engine fails to start, continued use of the starter
may result in unburnt fuel damaging the
catalytic converter.
1.
Check that the Parking brake is applied
and that the gear lever is in neutral (‘P’ or
‘N’ for automatic transmission).
2.
Switch off all unnecessary electrical
equipment (including the air
conditioning).
3.
Turn the ignition switch to position ‘III’ to
operate the starter motor and RELEASE
THE KEY as soon as the engine is running.
•
If the engine still fails to start, operate the
starter again, this time FULLY depressing
the accelerator pedal to clear the engine of
excess fuel. Ensure the starter motor is not
operated for more than 15 seconds and
release the accelerator pedal as soon as the
engine has started.
•
DO NOT pump the accelerator pedal during
starting.
NOTE:
If starting the vehicle in cold weather at
high altitude (above 8,000 feet (2,400 m)),
adopt the above procedure as normal practice.
DO NOT press the accelerator pedal while
starting and DO NOT operate the starter for
longer than 15 seconds. If the engine fails to
start, switch off and wait for at least 10 seconds
before trying again.
Cold climates
At temperatures down to -15
o
F (-26
o
C), the
engine should start within 5 to 8 seconds.
Below this temperature, engine cranking times
will increase significantly and the starter motor
may need to be operated continuously for as
long as 30 seconds before the engine will start.
For this reason, ensure that all non-essential
electrical equipment is switched off.
NOTE:
Continued use of the starter will not only
discharge the battery, but may cause damage to
the starter motor and the catalytic converter.
NOTE:
The battery charging, oil pressure and
engine malfunction indicator warning lights
should extinguish as soon as the engine is
running.
In very cold climates the oil pressure warning
light may take several seconds to extinguish.
Cylinder block heaters
Only approved cylinder block heaters restricted
to a maximum of 400 W should be used.
Cylinder block heaters that exceed this output
may damage the emission control components.

 Starting & Driving
Sump heater (Canadian specification only)
*
If the vehicle is left in temperatures of -15
o
F
(-25
o
C) or lower, the sump oil heater should be
used to improve the engines starting
characteristics.
DRIVING
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Vehicle stability
Your vehicle has a higher ground
clearance, and hence, a higher centre of
gravity than ordinary passenger cars to
enable the vehicle to perform in a wide
variety of different off-road applications.
An advantage of the higher ground
clearance is a better view of the road,
allowing the driver to more easily
anticipate problems. Inexperienced drivers
should take additional care, remembering
that your vehicle is not designed for
cornering at the same speeds as
conventional passenger cars, any more
than a low slung sports car is designed to
perform satisfactorily in off-road
conditions. As with other vehicles of this
type, failure to operate your vehicle
correctly may result in loss of control or
even vehicle rollover.
Vehicle height
The overall height of your vehicle exceeds
that of ordinary passenger cars. Always be
aware of the height of your vehicle and
check the available headroom before
driving through low entrances. This is
particularly important if the vehicle is fitted
with a roof rack or if the sunroof is tilted
open.
The heater plug connector is clipped up behind
the lower radiator grille. Unclip the cable
adjacent to the plug, and pull the plug through
the grille. Remove the protective cover from the
plug, then connect it to an appropriate electrical
supply cable socket.
The cover should always be refitted when the
heater is unplugged from the mains socket to
prevent ingress of dirt, snow, or other
contaminates. It is also recommended that the
cable and plug is cable tied to one of the grille
supports for easy use if the heater is to be used
regularly.
Automatic transmission vehicles
After starting, ensure that the Parking brake and
foot brake are firmly applied and the accelerator
pedal is not depressed while moving the gear
selector lever from ‘N’ or ‘P’, otherwise, the
vehicle may begin moving immediately after the
selector lever is moved to one of the drive
positions (1, 2, 4, D or R). This is particularly
important when the engine is cold, because the
engine will be idling at a faster speed than
normal.
NOTE:
The selector lever cannot be moved from
‘P’ to a drive position while the engine is
running, unless the brake pedal is applied.
Instruments and warning lights
Before driving it is important to fully
understand the function of the instruments and
warning lights see
‘INSTRUMENT PANEL’,
page 60
