The starting process has two stages.
STAGE ONE – ICU activation
- Insert the engine shut-off key in the engine shut-off switch placed on the upper part of the control handle for minimum 4 seconds (BUT LONGEST FOR 30 SECONDS!!!), then take the key out. The ignition control unit (ICU) will switch on and also the other accessories (such as a bilge pump) will be activated. The control unit activation is optically signalled by the control LED lighting and activation of the electric bilge pump which you are able to hear.. N o t e: The ICU will stay in this state for 5 minutes from the last time the engine shut-off key was pulled out of the engine shut-off switch. Then it will switch off automatically and in order to start the power board, you will have to repeat this step.
STAGE TWO – engine start
2. Insert the key in the engine shut-off switch on the control handle a second time. In the ignition
control unit (ICU), a three-second (3 s) delay has been programmed so that the rider could get into
a safe position and hold tight the grips of the motorized power board before the engine starts. After
this short delay, the engine starter will switch on and start the engine.
N o t e: The running engine can be switched off by pulling the key out of the engine shut-off switch.
