Repair and car operation

Start of the engine and driving

Positions of the cylinder of the lock of ignition

At all do not turn the ignition key in the situation LOCK and take it from the lock to a full stop of the car. Blocking the helmsman of a column can lead to emergency creation! In case of need ignition switching off during movement turn a key in the situation OFF. Do not nestle during engine start on a steering wheel - if forward wheels of the car of a wheel were left turned, the wheel can sharply move and injure hands or a thorax!

The cylinder of the lock of ignition by means of a key can will turn in one of five provisions (see an illustration).

Key turn in the situation LOCK blocks the switch of ignition and a steering column. On models to AT besides there is a blocking of the lever of the selector of transfers in situation P.

In the situation OFF there is an unblocking of a steering column and AT management. the engine thus remains not started.

The key should occupy the situation ON/RUN at the working engine.

For engine start by a starter the key should be turned in the situation START. As soon as start successfully to come to the end a key should be immediately released in the situation ON.

Key turn in situation ASS provides food giving on consumers of the electric power at the muffled engine.

Opening of a driver's door at the ignition key left in the lock leads to the inclusion of an alarm buzzer reminding to the driver of need to take out a key.

Blocking the helmsman of a column can prevent a povorachivaniye of a steering wheel and a key in the lock. For key release sharply pull a steering wheel in the same party where forward wheels of the car are turned, at the same time turning a key towards the situation OFF.

Engine start

General information

Normal start of the engine (cold or heated-up) should be made without squeezing of a pedal of gas. Turn the ignition key in the situation START after the engine will be started release. If within 10 seconds of start does not occur, turn a key in the situation OFF, wait about 5 seconds and repeat attempt.

If attempts to make start by usual way do not crown success, probably there was a carburetor flood. Squeeze out to a floor a pedal of gas and, holding her in this situation, turn the engine a starter - thus there should be a removal of excess of fuel.

In order to avoid failure of a starter do not turn them the engine continuously more than 15 seconds in a row. Pauses between attempts should make not less than 10 ÷ 15 seconds.

The filled-in engine can successfully be started, however will not develop full capacity, sufficient for continuation of its work at a key otpuskaniye. In that case continue attempts at completely squeezed out pedal of gas. After turns of the started engine are stabilized release a pedal of an accelerator and the ignition key.

If the engine is not started after a 15-second provorachivaniye by a starter at the squeezed-out pedal of gas, repeat attempt of normal start (see the item. "Normal start of the engine...").

Idling turns on the models equipped with system of multiitem injection of fuel are supervised automatically and will gradually decrease in process of engine warming up.

Avoid long single operation of the engine, especially on the raised turns - the excessive warming up of the fulfilled gases can lead to damage of the catalytic converter and other components of system of release. Do not leave the car with working engine without supervision.

Electric heater of the block (additional complete set)

Do not forget to switch off before a start of motion a heater cord from the socket, to wind and reliably to fix on a regular place in an impellent compartment!

Cooling liquid of the engine for the purpose of simplification of start of the last in cold weather allows to warm up a heater beforehand. The plug of a heater joins in standard 3-contact (with grounding) the socket of a variable network with tension of 110 ÷ 115 Century.

The cord of a heater winded in a bay on 6-cylinder engines is usually fixed on a tube of ventilation of a crater. On V8 engines the bay of a cord is fixed in clips on a fan casing near the tank of system of hydrostrengthening of a wheel.

Start of motion and driving

Management of a manual box of gear shifting

Do not forget before leaving parked (especially on an inclined site of the road) the car to cock the parking brake. Always leave RKPP on transfer (that does not mean lack of need for raising of the parking brake).

Do not move at all under a bias on neutral transfer and the more so do not switch off thus ignition as it is thus easy to run away and create an emergency on the road!

RKPP is equipped with the sensor switch of interruption of a chain of the starter, not allowing to make engine start at the pedal of coupling not squeezed out against the stop.

Before including transfer completely squeeze out a coupling pedal. Include the first transfer and slowly release couplings, at the same time squeezing out gas.

Gear shifting make strictly in ascending order, without jumping through one. Begin movement always with the first transfer. The scheme of provision of transfers is usually put on the handle of a control lever of RKPP. Casual inclusion instead of the first transfer of thirds at the moment of a start of motion can lead to coupling damage.

In the conditions of rather intense city cycle need for use of the highest transfers arises extremely seldom. The fifth transfer is intended for movement on the highway with high speed and does not allow to develop high acceleration. For inclusion of the fifth transfer submit the lever to the right against the stop, overcoming resistance of a spring, then push it forward. For return from the fifth transfer on the fourth pull the lever one movement on itself. There is no need sharply to move the lever to the left as thus by mistake it is possible to include instead of the fourth the second transfer that is fraught with box damage.

In order to avoid a premature exit of RKPP out of operation when driving it is necessary to observe some special rules:

• Before being switched from forward transfer on back (or on the contrary) wait a full stop of the car. Premature inclusion of transfer is capable to lead to serious mechanical damages of a transmission.
• Avoid movement with high speed on the bottom transfers. Such manner of driving can result in fast wear of a transmission and engine damages.
• Try to switch transfers smoothly, without allowing a gnash. In order to avoid damage of the engine or transmission do not pass to lower transfer until speed of the car will not be dumped to acceptable value.
• Try to clean completely a foot from a coupling pedal during movement or at operation of the engine on single turns. Such manner of driving is fraught with a premature exit of coupling out of operation as a result of an overheat.
• Do not forget that movement with excessively low speed for the chosen transfer is fraught with an engine overheat.
• At all do not use coupling for car keeping motionlessly on an inclined site of the road - coupling will quickly be past repair.
• In order to avoid transmission damage at gear shifting completely squeeze out a coupling pedal.
• In order to avoid damages of the transmission line try not to allow too fast provorachivaniye of wheels (more than 24 km/h (15 miles/h) in attempts to shift from a place the starting slipping car a switching way from forward transfer on back and back.

In instrument brushes of models with RKPP the special control lamp warning the driver at dispersal of the car about need of switching on transfer following one after another is built in.

Management of automatic transmission

At the AT lever not transferred to situation P the parked car is not insured from a skatyvaniye under a bias. Before leaving the car check reliability of fixing of the lever in situation P for what pull the lever forward-back without squeezing out the button on its handle. Do not forget to cock the parking brake also!

The index on the display panel of the selector of transfers informs the driver on the chosen situation AT. In a night-time the indicator is highlighted.

The lever of the selector of gear shifting with the display panel.

To begin movement the lever of the selector of transfers it is necessary to transfer from situation N to one of working provisions (1, 2, D, OD or R, depending on an objective). Press the button sideways on the handle and switch the lever in demanded situation. Do not force engine turns at AT conclusion from provisions P or N.

Situation P is intended for a car parking. Its inclusion is made for the purpose of blocking of the transmission supplementing operation of the parking brake оп to keeping of the car motionlessly. Situation P is one of two in whom engine start (the second - N) is possible. Being going to leave
