flat and flooding the engine. Turn the key to the
«OFF» position, wait for a few seconds and then
repeat the operation. If the malfunction persists,
refer to the engine manual and chapter «8» in
this manual.
IMPORTANT Always bear in mind that the
safety devices prevent the engine from starting

corrected, the key must first be turned back to
«OFF» before the engine can be restarted.
