This is the normal running position after
the engine is started. The warning lights
(except brakes) should be inspected
before the engine is started (page 5-42).
NOTE
When the ignition is switched ON, the sound of
the fuel pump motor operating near the fuel
tank can be heard. This does not indicate an
abnormality.
START
The engine is started in this position. It
will crank until you release the start knob;
then it returns to the ON position. The
brake warning light can be checked after
the engine is started (page 5-42).

from the ignition switch, re-attach it by
pushing it on to the ignition switch.
