Using Your E-TEC Outboard
INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
ENGINE MONITORING
CAUTION
IMPORTANT:
Your
outboard
must
be
equipped with the SystemCheck engine mon-
itor. Operating your outboard without the Sys-
temCheck engine monitor will void your
warranty for failures related to the functions
monitored on your engine.
When you turn the key switch ON, the Sys-
temCheck engine monitor horn performs a
self-test by sounding a 1/2-second beep. The
gauge self-tests by turning the warning lights
on, then off in sequence. During engine start-
up, pause with the key switch in the ON posi-
tion to observe the horn and gauge perform
the self-test. If the self-test does not happen
as stated, see your Dealer.
In the S.A.F.E. mode, the engine speed
is limited. Under certain conditions, the
engine’s limited speed may reduce
maneuverability of your boat.
If the S.A.F.E. mode is activated and
you are unable to correct the problem,
seek assistance and/or return to safe
harbor. Serious engine damage, engine
shutoff, and/or reduced maneuverabil-
ity may be imminent.
The SystemCheck engine monitor alerts the
operator with a 10-second beep of the horn
and a warning light on the gauge when certain
engine problems occur. The appropriate
warning light will stay on until the problem
is corrected or the key switch is turned
OFF.
If the engine management module (EMM)
senses that the problem could cause perma-
nent engine damage, it will also limit engine
speed to 1200 RPM. This additional protec-
tion feature is referred to as S.A.F.E.™
(Speed Adjusting Failsafe Electronics). If the
engine was running faster than 1200 RPM
when the S.A.F.E. mode activated, it will
shake noticeably. Under certain operating
conditions the EMM will shut OFF the engine.
