The fuel cell system has a reformer (1) with thermal starting device, a gas conditioning stage (2) downstream to the reformer and a fuel cell with multiple bipolar plates down stream to the gas conditioning stage. A changeover device (9) is provided upstream to fuel cell (3), which is changed over between a start-up position and in an operating position, where in the start-up position, the product gases of the reformer or the thermal starting device are conveyed over the outer area of the fuel cell during starting process for heating the fuel cell. An independent claim is included for a method for starting and operating a fuel cell system. |
