Starting the car
The car is started using the start knob in the tun-
nel console when the remote control key is in
the passenger compartment.
Start knob in the tunnel console.
WARNING
Before starting:
•
Fasten the seatbelt.
•
Adjust the seat, steering wheel and mir-
rors.
•
Make sure that the brake pedal can be
fully depressed.
The remote control key is not physically used
when starting the car since it is equipped with
support for keyless starting (Passive start).
To start the car:
1. The remote control key must be inside the
car. For cars with Passive Start, the key
needs to be located in the front part of the
passenger compartment. With the option for
keyless locking/unlocking
*
of the car, the key
can be anywhere in the car.
2. Hold the brake pedal depressed
1
fully. For
cars with automatic gear changing, make
sure that gear position
P
or
N
is selected.
For cars with a manual gearbox, make sure
that the gear lever is in neutral position or
that the clutch pedal is depressed.
3. Turn the start knob clockwise and then
release it. The control automatically returns
to its starting position.
When the engine is started the starter motor
works until the engine is started or until its over-
heating protection triggers.
When starting in normal conditions, the car's
electric drive motor is prioritised - the petrol
engine remains switched off. This means that
after the start knob has been turned clockwise,
the electric motor has "started" and the car is
ready to drive. A started car is indicated by the
driver display's indicator lamps extinguishing and
its preset theme illuminating.
However, there are situations where the petrol
engine is started instead, e.g. in the event of the
temperature being too low or if the hybrid battery
needs charging.
The car should not be started with the charging
cable connected but in the cases when it cannot
be unplugged, or the car incorrectly detects the
charging cable, it is possible to force start the
car:
1. Depress the brake pedal and turn the start
knob clockwise.
2. The text
Charge cable
Remove before
start
appears in the driver display.
3. Turn the start knob clockwise again.
4. The text
Removed? Turn and hold start
knob 7s
appears, at which point, turn the
knob clockwise and hold it for 7 seconds to
start the car.

If the car is moving, the engine can be started by turning the start knob clockwise.
