The starter some time works in an automatic mode and is switched off as automatically as soon as the engine will be got.

At insufficient tension of the accumulator automatic start-up of the engine is not made and not disconnected. The engine in this case can be got from the accumulator of other car (address to engine Start from the auxiliary power supply).

If the engine (cold or peregrety) is not got from the first, it is necessary to operate as follows:
 • In order to avoid a zabryzgivaniye of spark plugs to repeat attempt of start-up it is possible after a short-term pause.
 • At start-up of the engine hold a pedal of an accelerator pressed approximately to a half of its course.

Start-up of the cold engine at low temperatures (below - 15°С) and at big heights (more than 1000 m over sea height):
 • In the first attempt to get the engine hold a starter included slightly more long usual (about 10 seconds).
 • A pedal of an accelerator hold pressed approximately to a half of its course.
