What are the techniques for hand-cranking a diesel engine to start?
1 Answers
First, you need to press down the brake pedal to start the engine. Then, turn the key to the ST position to start the engine until the idle speed stabilizes. Turn the airspeed knob all the way to the right for maximum airflow. Rotate the cold/hot mode knob to the left to activate the cooling mode. Press the A/C button to turn on the air conditioning and engage the compressor. Press the recirculation button to activate the interior air recirculation mode. Adjust the airflow intensity by clicking the fan blade icon on the air conditioning panel.
