To Start the Engine

Check that the engine stop switch is in
the RUN position.
Ensure the transmission is in neutral.
Turn the ignition switch on.
Note:
• When the ignition is switched on, the
tachometer needle will quickly sweep
from zero to maximum and then
return to zero. The instrument
warning lights will illuminate and will
then go off (except those which
normally remain on until the engine
starts - see Warning Lights on
page 24). It is not necessary to wait
for the needle to return to zero
normally be
before starting the engine.
• A transponder is fitted within the key
to turn off the engine immobiliser. To
ensure the immobiliser functions
correctly, always have only one of
the ignition keys near the ignition
switch. Having two ignition keys near
the switch may interrupt the signal
between the transponder and the
engine immobiliser. In this situation
the engine immobiliser will remain
active until one of the ignition keys is
removed.
