Overheating protection
If the starter motor is engaged for its maximum
activation time (30 seconds), the starter motor circuit
is automatically cut to protect the starter motor from
overheating. If possible, leave the starter motor to cool
for at least five minutes before making a new start
attempt.
Read the instruments and warm the
engine up
Allow the engines to idle for the first ten seconds.
Check that instruments and warning displays show
normal values.
Check that no messages are displayed and no warning
signs are showing. If a fault is registered, please refer
to section Fault Handling, page 67 for further
information and recommended actions.
Warm the engine up at low speed and low load, so
normal operating temperature is reached before full
power is used.
IMPORTANT:
Never race the engine when it is cold.
Racing the engine when it is cold may damage the
engine components and decrease the engine lifetime.
