Starting The Engine; Horn; Cigar Lighter - TVR T350 Owner's Handbook Manual

Starting the Engine

1 Apply the handbrake and insert the ignition key into the steering column ignition
lock.
2 Depress the clutch pedal. Put the gear lever into neutral.
3 Turn the key to position 1 to release the steering lock.
(move the steering wheel slightly if necessary)
4 Turn the key to position 2 to activate electrical circuits.
(The fuel pump will be heard pressurising the fuel system.)
5 Turn the key to position 3 to engage the starter motor. The engine will start (minimal
use of the throttle pedal may be needed during the engine start sequence.)
6 If the engine fails to start, return the key to position 1 and repeat steps 4 and 5.
IMPORTANT: Where necessary only short repeated engine
cranking periods should be used, as long cranking periods
cause unnecessary wear to the starter motor and causes
unburnt fuel to be deposited into the catalyst/exhaust system.

Horn

Press the centre of the steering wheel to sound the horn. The horn works independently
of the ignition being switched on.

Cigar Lighter

The cigar lighter is located on the transmission tunnel forward of the gear lever next to
the ash tray. To operate, fully depress the button to heat the element. The button will
eject back to its original position when ready for use (after approximately ten seconds).
Withdraw the complete unit to reveal the element.
