Roger have a look at Ace Answers (handbook section very useful).
Red button is to allow movement of shift stick without pressing the footbrake. Little black button os to be pressed when removing the ign key, if not pressed and turned the final bit you are removing the key in ACC and will have circuits open and therefore a flat battery at some stage. Battery under floor infront of 2nd row of seats behind the drivers seat.

Hi Tony.
The manual issue is well documented on the archives, but in essence, there is no Haynes type workshop manual, and there probably never will be.
There is an engine manual RM025E that covers the 2CT engine, and if you are planning on diy maintenance it’s a must have. Then there is the American Van Manual that covers the States version, but that’s petrol not diesel. If you have a copy of both, then that’s about as much information as you would need, or can get. There are other manuals, like the Russian one, but if you don’t read Russian, its not a whole lot of use, and the cost of translation is around £2,500 and that‘s before you factor in costs of copyright and printing.
That’s why mark started the BOK, and Dave Mason archives it. Its much better to ask people who have experience rather than read a manual.
