2 - Put on the brakes
3 - Flip the Engine Alimentation Switch
4 - Flip the Ground Power Supply Cable Alimentation Switch
5 - Flip the Attach Generators Output to Cable switch
6 - Extend the electric cable as much as needed
7 - Throttle up to 80
8 - Turn the Engine Starter key
9 - Kill the Starter when the engine is running
10 - Connect the electric connector to the Bird

--- Refueling the GPU --
1 - Bring the GPU near a diesel tank with Fluid Transfer Capabilities
2 - Put the brakes on
3 - Flip the Refueling Hose Alimentation Switch
4 - Extend the refueling hose and connect it to the diesel tank

!! The GPU only works with Diesel. Any other kind of fuel might damage the GPU.

--- Informations ---
The GPU produces 44.50 Watts that go directly into the main battery of the UH-1D / SaR \ when plugged in.
When unused, the GPU is fed by multiple cells of solar panels.
If the temperature of the Generators exceedes 116°C, an alarm will go off. To decrease the temperature you have to kill the GPU.
