Bavaria 36 User Manual page 19

ESCAPE does not have an ignition key starting system. Located on the binnacle, above the
Tachometer is a small square black panel with four buttons. The top left button is the On/Off
switch supplying power to the Tach. The top right button is the start button for the engine.
The bottom right button is the stop for the engine. The bottom left button is to acknowledge
an alarm.
Make a habit of visually checking the engine and engine compartment before starting the
machinery:
Check that the Raw water cooling valve is open, at the sail drive.
Check that the Fuel / water coalescer is dry.
Check for fuel or oil leaks.
To start the engine, turn the panel on (top left button) and wait for the beep. This will notify
you when the glow plugs have received power and the engine may be started. Push the top
right button to start the engine. ENSURE THERE IS COOLING WATER COMING OUT
THE EXHAUST (on the port quarter).
Never use starting spray or similar agents to start the engine.
Check whether there are any lines, chains, or other ropes in the water, which could easily get
caught in the propeller.
Caution
Check to ensure the shore power cable has been removed and stowed.
When sailing the transmission control lever must be in the neutral position
