At least 6 hours have passed since the engine was stopped at an outside air temperature of +20°C and at least 3 hours at -20°C, the temperature of the oil in the engine crankcase coincides with the ambient temperature.
The methods for starting an engine with a fuel injection system are the same at any outside temperature.
1. Pull the lock drive handle towards you and open the hood.
2. Use a dipstick to measure the oil level. It should be between the marks «MAX» and «MIN».
3. Check the level of the brake..
4.... and coolants.
5. Carefully inspect the engine and engine compartment. Pay attention to drips of gasoline, oil, brake and coolant fluids. Make sure the electrical wiring is intact. Check the fit of the high-voltage wires in the sockets of the ignition module and on the candles.
6. Without closing the hood (cover the hood in case of rain or snow), get behind the wheel.
Switch on the ignition by turning the key in the ignition switch to position «I». This will turn on the electric fuel pump.
Helpful advice. It is better to close the hood after the engine starts to work. Before that, it is advisable to once again inspect the engine, make sure that there are no leaks of fuel, oil, coolant, as well as extraneous sounds in its operation.
If the engine does not start, there are three main reasons:
- start system does not work;
- the ignition system does not work;
- the power system is not working.
Helpful advice. If, for any reason, during an unsuccessful start attempt, «flooded» spark plugs, use the mode «purge» cylinders. To do this, press the accelerator pedal all the way and turn on the starter. In this mode, there is no fuel supply and excess gasoline is removed from the cylinders by a stream of fresh air - the spark plugs are dried. After purging, try starting again in the normal way.
