If all gauge readings are normal and no fault
codes are present, the display will return to

8. To start the engine, turn the key switch to START. When the engine starts, release the key; it will return to ON.
Idling the Engine
Idling the engine for long periods wastes fuel and causes carbon formation, oil dilution, formation of lacquer or
gummy deposits on the valves, pistons, and rings, and rapid accumulation of sludge in the engine.
Allow the engine to idle until the engine coolant temperature reaches 140°F (60°C) before beginning operations.
NOTICE!
Never crank the engine for more than 15 seconds, as it could damage the machine or cause
the machine to operate improperly. If the engine fails to start after 15 seconds, stop and allow
the starter motor to cool for at least 2 minutes before attempting another start.
