Unexpected Engine Stoppage
If the engine stops unexpectedly and all of the SmartSwitch
indicator lights flash simultaneously, it is an indication of a
nonsafety related shutdown (example, running out of gas). The
system will reset after a few moments and return to a prestart
status. The reason for the shutdown must be identified and
corrected prior to attempting a restart (example, refuel the
unit).
