Starting The Engine - Porsche 928 S 1986 Driver Manual

Warning: Never turn the key back to posi-
tion 1 whilst the vehicle is moving.
It is in your own interest to always remove
the ignition key when leaving the vehicle,
if only for a short period, and to ensure that
the steering lock is fully engaged. This is
done by rocking the steering wheel left and
right. This might also be necessary to re-
lease the lock when turning on the ignition.

Starting the engine

When the engine is hot or cold, component
parts being controlled in dependence of the
temperature automatically provide the correct
fuel-air mixture required for starting.
Therefore, special starting instructions are
not necesssary.
Do not allow the engine to warm up in neutral,
but drive off immediately while avoiding high
rpm and full throttle until the engine has reach-
ed its normal operating temperature.
In cold weather, it is advisable to depress
the clutch pedal when starting the engine,
even when the vehicle is in neutral.
Never start the engine or let it run in con-
fined spaces. The exhaust contains the co-
lourless and odourless gas, carbon mono-
xide, which is poisonous, even in small
quantities.
Please take note of the hints on running-in.
