Depends if you have ground power connected or not.  If you have ground power connected then you don't need to start the APU till just before pushback and disconnection of ground power.  If you don't have groundpower connected then you need to start the APU after turning on the Battery.

Just connect ground power using Ground options menu in MCDU and on overhead. Then follow normal procedures and start APU before start. Switch to APU generators, wait 1 minute, turn on APU bleed, disconnect GPU.

 

If you want air conditioning connect external air or air conditioning cart and follow procedures on FCOM vol.1 pages SP.2.1 and SP.2.2 respectively for procedures of how to use them.
