(this method only works with the Sliding Window style Isetta because you can easily access the gear shift lever).

1: Ignition ON

2: Parking Brake OFF

3: Hand on Gear Lever ready to put it into THIRD Gear

4: Get car rolling

5: Push Gear Lever into Third, this will crank over the engine, once it starts, IMMEDIATELY pull the Gear Lever back to Neutral or you will be chasing your car.
