Starting After Running Out Of Fuel; Starting A Warm Engine - Seat Arosa 2003 Owner's Manual

•
When the warning lamp goes out, start
the engine immediately.
If the engine does not start, repeat pre-
glow and try starting it again as
described. If the engine still does not
start the fuse for the Diesel glow plugs
may have blown – see the "Fuses" chap-
ter.
Do not depress the accelerator while
starting.
If the engine only fires irregularly, con-
tinue to operate the starter a few seconds
longer (30 seconds at maximum) until the
engine runs under its own power.

The glow plug lamp does not come on –
the engine can be started straight away.
Starting a a fter r r unning o o ut o o f f f uel
If the tank on vehicles with a diesel engine
was empty, starting after filling with diesel
fuel can take longer than normal – up to
one minute. This is because the fuel system
must first be freed of air before starting.
