5.1.2 Engine start

remote control key.
- Make sure the gearshift lever is in “P” or
“N” position.

that the ENGINE START/STOP button
backlight turns green.
- Press the ENGINE START/STOP button
to start the engine.
NOTE
In case of a cold start, run the engine at
idle speed to warm up it before driving. At
the same time, the valve tappet takes a
few seconds to reach the normal working
pressure and operation noise will occur,
which is normal.

15s. If the engine is not started
successfully, you must wait about 30s

hard to make the engine run at high
speed or overload after starting.
Otherwise, the engine is likely to be
damaged.
●
If the battery level is low and the engine
cannot be started, try to start it by a
jumper cable. => See page 297

pushing or towing the vehicle.
