FIAT Ulysse - Manual (Page 94)

It is dangerous to let the
engine run in a garage or
other closed area. The
engine consumes oxygen and
gives off carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide and other poisonous
fumes.
– Make sure the handbrake is up and
the gear lever in P or N: the engine
can be started only with the gear in
these two positions.
– Turn the ignition key to D without
pressing the accelerator pedal.
If the engine does not start at the
first attempt, return the ignition key
to S before trying to start the engine
again.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

STARTING THE ENGINE If the instrument panel warning light
stays on when the ignition key is at M,
turn the key to S and then back to M;
if the warning light still remains lit, try
with the other keys provided with the
vehicle.
If you are still unable to start the en-
gine (see “In an emergency” chapter)
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
IMPORTANT Do not leave the ig-
nition key at M when the engine is off
to prevent draining the battery charge.
MOVING THE CAR
Proceed as follows:
– press fully the brake pedal;
– select the required gear lever po-
sition;
– accelerate progressively; the vehi-
cle is started and the gear shift de-
pends on the position selected.
When the ignition key is
at M, it is possible to shift
the gear lever from P on-
ly when the brake pedal is fully
depressed (Shift-lock safety de-
vice).
