Press indicator light (Figure 1, Item 2) to see if it glows. If it doesn’t glow, troubleshoot (WP 0087).

The heater can be started with the HI/LO switch in HI or LO position. Heater life will be
extended if operated in LO temperature setting.

Set HI/LO switch (Figure 1, Item 1) to desired position for heat control.
5.
Move START/OFF/RUN switch (Figure 1, Item 4) to START position and hold for approximately 4 seconds,
then move switch directly to RUN position. Heater will run automatically.

The Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) may need to be started; turn generator switch to
ON. This will supply enough voltage for heater startup.
•
The fuel pump switch may need to be in ON position to supply more fuel pressure
to heater for startup.
