5.6.10 Start batteries
Each engine has a dedicated battery to start. Start battery 1 on portside is dedicated
to the portside engine and start battery 2 on the starboard side is dedicated to the
starboard engine. Only in case of an emergency
can this configuration be changed by two battery
selector switches in the “engine start switchbox”.
The portside switch selects the battery dedicated
to the portside engine and should be selected on
battery number one (1). The starboard side
switch selects the dedicated battery for starboard
engine and should be selected on battery
number two (2).
Never switch over the selector switches while
engines are running.
