Operation
Diesel engine
If the diesel engine does not start immediately, then the electronic system switches off
the starter after a certain period of time. In this case, wait at least 2 minutes until new
start attempt so that the starter can cool down sufficiently.
Help for engine start. (See Page 486)
If the diesel engine cannot be started due to a starting block, the R-Touch displays the
following warning icon:
This warning icon and one of the following alternately flash on the R-Touch:
Please swing up rear platform
wall
Please close engine housing
door
Let the diesel engine idle for a short time before shutting it down. If the diesel engine
is shut down at high speed, then the turbo charger runs on after the oil pressure has
already fallen.
This leads to lack of lubricant and therefore to unnecessary wear on bearings of the
fast-running turbine of the turbocharger.
To shut down the diesel engine
– Press STOP key (18).
– Only in case of emergency, shut down the diesel engine by moving the ignition lock
to position 0.
