ENGINE STARTING
(Figure 7.6.3)
Ignition function
Ignition system consists of an ignition unit and two spark igniter plugs in
powerplant, a three--position ”IGNITION” switch OFF -- AUTO -- ON located
on ”ENGINE START” panel at upper panel.
Ignition unit supplies, from 28--Volt source, high voltage current necessary to
spark igniter plugs. When ”IGNITION” switch is positioned to AUTO, ignition
unit supply is ensured as long as ”STARTER” switch located on left side of
”IGNITION” switch is maintained ON : this is normal procedure for ground
starting or flight air start with starter.
ON position for ”IGNITION” switch is used in case of flight air start without
starter. In this configuration, ignition unit is supplied permanently. In any
case, ”IGNITION” CAS message lights on as long as ignition unit is supplied.
Starter function
Starting system consists of ”STARTER” switch located on ”ENGINE START”
panel, starter generator and ignition circuit (Refer to Paragraph ”Ignition
function”).
Starting procedure is manual. Setting ”STARTER” switch to ON connects the
starter generator which drives powerplant. ”STARTER” CAS message lights
on indicating that the starter generator is operating.

ENGINE STARTING MUST BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL AND BY FOLLOWING PROCEDURES AND
PARAMETERS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 4 ”NORMAL PROCEDURES”
