Starting problems

To avoid damaging the catalytic converter or the starter, and to prevent premature wearing of the battery, do not keep trying to start the engine (using the start button, or by pushing or towing the vehicle) without having identified and corrected the starting fault.

If the fault cannot be identified, do not keep trying to start the engine, but contact an approved Dealer.

The braking force is released as soon as the driver accelerates sufficiently with a gear engaged.
