OPERATION
HIGH ALTITUDE
UNDER TOW
Your outboard’s EMM will automatically compensate for
Should you require a tow from another boat:
changes in altitude. However, if you boat above 900 m
•
•
•
Shift your engine to NEUTRAL;
Tilt its gearcase out of the water;
Off-load all persons into another boat; and
(3000
ft.), you will experience a slight loss of power due to
reduced air density.
If your engine drops below the recommended RPM operat-
ing range at full throttle, have your Dealer select a lower
pitch propeller.
• Keep speed slower than planing speed.
FUSE
If you return to sea level, have your Dealer install the orig-
inal propeller and verify correct RPM operating range.
COLD AND FREEZING WEATHER
On outboards equipped with an accessory electric
starter, a blown fuse will not allow the engine to start. Re-
place it with a fuse of the same rating. A spare fuse is pro-
vided.
NOTICE
When operating in conditions under
(32°F), Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil, must be
0°C
used.
Repeated fuse failures indicate a potentially serious prob-
lem. Do not replace it with higher rated fuse; see your
Dealer for service.
During operation in freezing weather, keep the gearcase
submerged at all times.
Upon removing your outboard from the water, leave it in a
vertical position until its cooling system is drained. Store
the outboard vertically.
Fuse Replacement
IMPORTANT: Use only fuses of the same rating. Your
Evinrude E-TEC outboard uses 10-amp fuses.
If the outboard’s gearcase is equipped with an integral
speedometer pickup, all water must be cleared from the
hose to prevent gearcase damage. Refer to STORAGE on
page 34.
Remove engine cover. Install spare fuse in place of failed
fuse.
NOTICE
Water remaining in the gearcase, cool-
ing system or other components can freeze, causing
serious engine damage.
SHALLOW WATER
1
Gearcase damage can occur if the gearcase is allowed to
drag on the waterway bottom. Use caution when operating
in shallow water.
IMPORTANT: Impact damage is NOT covered by the out-
board warranty.
