and will then go off (except those which
five
normally remain on until the engine
starts, see page 32).
A transponder is fitted within the key to
turn off the engine immobiliser. To make
each
sure the immobiliser functions correctly,
always have only one of the ignition
keys near the ignition switch. Having
for

transponder and the engine immobiliser.
In this situation the engine immobiliser
will remain active until one of the
ignition keys is removed.

push the starter button until the
engine starts.
• Slowly release the clutch lever.
