6.4 Remote Battery Switch Panel
The battery switches are controlled by switches in the
battery switch panel located in the cabin AC panel. A
red light in each switch will illuminate to indicate that
the battery the switch it controls is now on. When
a battery switch is turned off, the red light may not

Helm Master Ignition

restarted while running.
Starting and stopping procedure

levers in the neutral position and your hand is on
the control levers. Touch the panel with the elec-
