Important
The thermo-start lamp turns off at the
specified time. However, the lamp turning off
is not related to the glow plug generating
heat.
If the ignition key is left in the "GLOW"
position after the lamp is turned off, the plug
will still generate heat. The lamp will stay
illuminated for five seconds.
Switch the ignition key to the "GLOW"
position.
Make sure that the glow plug is generating
heat and the thermo-start lamp is turned on.
Caution
Quickly returning the ignition key from the
"START" position to the "ON" position may
result in damage to the machine.
After the thermo-start lamp turns off,
immediately set the ignition key to the
"START" position.
