10.2 Warming up
As soon as the engine is running and the instruments are reading correctly, the car may be driven. The tick-over
will be adjusted by the fuel injection and may run a little higher than normal while the engine is cold. The tick-
over may also fluctuate for a short time when electrical equipment is switched on.
Notice
Avoid harsh acceleration or labouring at all times, but especially when the engine is cold. It is recommended
that the car be run carefully until the normal running temperature is reached. When the vehicle reaches normal
operating temperature, check that all the instruments are reading correctly. Under cold conditions, the gearbox
may appear stiff whilst the car is cold. Operate the gears carefully; allow time for the clutch to free the box and
the lever to travel between the gates.
