even for a brief start-up—without supplying

you back into an object, either in the water or
while trailering, your boat and outboard can
be seriously damaged.
While boating, the outboard’s water intakes
must stay completely submerged and unob-
structed. Observe proper transom height and
tilt angle. While the outboard is running, the
outboard’s water pump indicator must dis-
charge a steady stream of water. Check the
indicator often, especially when operating in
weeds, muddy and debris-laden water, and at
extreme trim angles.
If you hit any object:
•
STOP immediately and examine the out-
board for loosening of attaching hardware.
INSPECT for damage to swivel and stern
brackets, and steering components.
•
•
•
If the collision occurred in the water, proceed
slowly to harbor. Before boating again, have
your Dealer thoroughly inspect all compo-
nents.
EXAMINE the boat for structural damage.
TIGHTEN any loosened hardware.

If the engine overheats, the S.A.F.E. (Speed
Adjusting Failsafe Electronics) mode will im-
mediately limit the engine’s speed to 1200
RPM. If the engine was running faster than
1200 RPM when the S.A.F.E. mode activat-
ed, it will shake noticeably. The protection
system must be RESET before the engine will
operate at speeds over 1200 RPM. Under
certain conditions the EMM will shut off the
engine.
WARNING
Failure to inspect for damage after an
accident or striking an object could
result in sudden, unexpected compo-
nent failure, loss of boat control, and
personal injury. Unrepaired damage
could reduce your boat and outboard’s
ability to resist future impacts.
