It's said it drives the alternator and the "water" pump. So it should be safe to start a cold engine only briefly, I suppose. Just don't expect a Check Control message to warn you that the engine is too hot: as the coolant won't run it may not reflect the engine temperature correctly.

Fell free to call a service with this simple question, just to make sure.
