System for improved starting of a powered device including one or more threshold conditions

A system for communicating threshold conditions for use of a powered device to a user, comprising:

• an engine;
• a controller coupled to the engine to control starting of the engine;
• a first indicator associated with a first threshold condition, the first indicator has a first state when the threshold condition is not satisfied and the first indicator has a second state when the threshold condition is satisfied, and the first indicator is coupled to the controller so that the controller is responsive to a change of the state of the first indicator, and wherein the controller is adapted to provide information for display that is indicative of the state of the first indicator;
• a second indicator associated with a second threshold condition, the second indicator has a first state when the second threshold condition is not satisfied and the second indicator has a second state when the second threshold condition is satisfied, and the second indicator is coupled to the controller so that the controller is responsive to a change of the state of the second indicator, and wherein the controller is adapted to provide information for display that is indicative of the state of the second indicator;
• and
• a throttle control including two throttle levers that are each movable between a first position and a second position and wherein the first indicator is associated with a first throttle lever of the two throttle levers and the first indicator is in the first state when the first throttle lever is in the first position and the first indicator is in the second state when the first throttle lever is in the second position, and the second indicator is associated with a second throttle lever of the two throttle levers and the second indicator is in the first state when the second throttle lever is in the first position and the second indicator is in the second state when the second throttle lever is in the second position.
