NORM: Turns on continuous ignition (A and B) when the engine is running and:
• The ENG 1(2) ANTI ICE pushbutton is ON, or
• The aircraft is in the takeoff phase, or
• Approach idle is selected, or
• In flight, an unscheduled sub idle or surge is detected.
IGN START: If the MASTER switch is ON, and N2 > idle, this position selects continuous ignition (A and B).
During an automatic start:
• After the dry crank sequence, ignition switches to A or B.
• During a manual start, ignition (A and B) commences when the MASTER switch is turned ON.
Note:On ground, the ignition automatically cuts off at the end of the start sequence (N2 > 43 %).

- ON
- OFF

A

ON: LP fuel valve opens (if the ENG FIRE pushbutton is in).
During an automatic start, the HP fuel valve opens if:
