mentarily, then try again.
Each time the key switch is turned from OFF
to ON, the warning system will self-test. Refer
to Engine Monitoring on page 17. If the
warning system fails to self-test during start-
up, see your Dealer.
If your outboard does not react normally to
this starting procedure or if it fails to start, re-
fer to Troubleshooting on page 40.
WARNING
If you are using a remote control that
does not have start-in-gear prevention,
the outboard can be started while it is
in gear. Protect against unexpected
boat movement by always starting your
outboard in NEUTRAL.
After Engine Starts
Check the water pump indicator. A steady
stream of water indicates the water pump is
working. If a steady stream of water from the
water pump indicator is not visible, stop the
engine. Refer to Engine Overheating on
page 19.
DO NOT advance the throttle before start-up.
Advancing the throttle overrides the electron-
ic idle control system. After the engine starts,
the engine management module (EMM) au-
tomatically increases idle speed slightly. Idle
speed will decrease as the engine warms up.
The engine monitor gauge lights or display
will illuminate if the throttle is advanced.
Turn the key switch fully clockwise to the
START position. Crank the engine no longer
than 20 seconds.
ENGINE STOPPING
Move control handle to NEUTRAL.
Turn key switch counterclockwise to the OFF
position. Remove the key when the boat will
be unattended.
IMPORTANT: The starter motor can be dam-
aged if operated continuously for more than
20
seconds.
Upon start-up, release the key.
