Ignition System Faults - Husqvarna Z 246i Operator's Manual

OPERATION
7. Press and release the S/S button to activate
the ignition switch. Check that the indicator is
blinking blue.
Enter the pass code and press the S/S button.
The S/S button will flash one slow green blink
if the code is accepted and will change to a
rapid green blink.
If the S/S button has accepted the code but
does not stay lit with a rapid green blink, see

Ignition System Faults

When the S/S button displays a rapid green
blink, press and release the button once more
to start the engine.
Allow the engine to run at a moderate speed,
approximately mid throttle, for a short time
before use.
NOTE: For the first start after the unit has sat
idle for an extended period of time, or has
been refueled after being run out of gas, the
engine may require an extended start attempt
to reprime the fuel system. Press and hold
down the S/S switch for three seconds and
then release. This will prompt the engine
starter to attempt starting the engine for up
to ten seconds (instead of the normal five
seconds), allowing time for fuel to be pulled
into the engine.
Ignition System Faults
The SmartSwitch Ignition is programmed to warn
when any part of the safety system is not being
followed and will not allow the unit to be started
until all system faults are resolved.
The blade switch fault light will blink if the blade
control switch has not been disengaged (down
position) or is disconnected.
The motion control fault light will blink if the
motion control levers are not in the neutral (outer)
position.
Running
1. Release the park brake by pulling the steering
/ park brake controls inwards to the neutral
position at the same time.
NOTE: The mower is equipped with an
operator presence system. If the operator
tries to leave the seat with the engine running,
without first setting the park brake, the engine
will shut off.
2. Lower the mower deck to the desired cutting
height.
