starter button
Press to begin
A starter button is a button that initiates an engine or machine, particularly in automobiles before ignition keys became standard and in aircraft.
The term applies to any button that begins a mechanical process: He pressed the starter button and the generator hummed to life.
Modern cars with push-button start have revived the concept.
