10. APU: (ON) START

Click and hold the APU knob - it should rotate clockwise to the START indication. You won’t be able to

watch the RPM build up on the EICAS, but if you wait at least 3 to 5 seconds you’ll be okay. By this

point, if you listen carefully you should hear the APU spooling up.

11. Wait until APU reaches 100% on EICAS APU indicator
