Abstract
A method is provided for operating a spark ignition internal combustion engine having fuel injection at a cold start. The method retards the spark angle to a cold start value at least for the first combustion in at least one cylinder of the internal combustion engine during a cold start phase, the fuel injected into the cylinder being brought to combustion, and the method sets the spark angle to normal, to end the cold start phase.
