After performing the final pre-departure checklist, start the engines one
at a time.

− Press the starboard engine “STBD ENGINE STARTER” button (4).
− Check if oil pressure reaches the normal value within 10 seconds.
− Check if cooling water circulation is correct.
− Once the first engine is running and only when its operation has
proved to be regular, start the second engine too.
− Start the port engine in the same way as described for the starboard
one.
− Press the “PORT ENGINE IGNITION” button (6) to enable start-up.
− Press the port engine “PORT ENGINE STARTER” button (5).
Do not press or hold the throttle lever while the engine is running.
The system will supply automatically the fuel quantity necessary to
start the engine.
− If the engine does not start within 30 seconds, release the start button.
Before trying to restart the engine, wait two minutes and let the starter
cool down.
− Let the engine run with no load for about 3 minutes, until the water
temperature gauge raises. Check all devices during the pre-heating
time.
NOTICES
Check that the self-test of the monitoring system is complete, before
starting the engine under load.
