Starting the Engine

EVC-ec engines are equipped with an auto-crank fea-
ture. Momentarily turning the key to the start position,
then releasing it back to the ON position I will cause
the engine to continue to crank for up to 5 seconds or
until the engine starts.
If you attempt to execute a "fast crank" (turning the key
from OFF immediately all the way to START), there
will be a 3–5 second delay while EVC "warms up."
1. Move the control handle to the neutral detent
position N.
2. Turn the ignition switch to START II. If the engine
does not start, then try again.
NOTICE! If engine cranking needs to be aborted, the
key can be turned to the OFF position 0.
NOTICE! Never leave the key in the ON position with
the engine not running.
NOTICE! If the engine floods during a warm start,
simply follow the directions provided in the
section entitled If the Engine Floods on
page 35 to restart the engine.
