1) Ensure that the handbrake is up.
2) Put the gear lever into neutral.
3) Turn the ignition key to MAR. Instrument panel warning lightswill come on.
4) Wait for warning lights to turn off.
5) Wait for the instrument panel warning light to go out. The hotter the engine is, the quicker this will happen.
6) Press the clutch pedal down to the floor without touching the accelerator.
7) Turn the key to AVV immediately after the warning light goes out. If you wait to long, you will lose the benefit of the work done by the glow plugs.
The warning light will flash (for approximately 60 seconds) at start-up or during prolonged cranking to signal a fault in the glow plug heating system. You can use the vehicle as usual if the engine starts but you should contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have problem seen to.
If the engine does not start at the first attempt, return the ignition key to STOP before trying to start the engine again.
If with key at MAR warning light stays on, turn the key to STOP and then to MAR again; if the warning light stays on, try with the other keys provided.
If you still cannot start the engine, get in touch with Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT
Never leave the ignition key at MAR when the engine is off.
