SPARK PLUGS
CAUTION
FUSE
On outboards equipped with an accesso-
ry electric starter, a blown fuse will not allow
the engine to start. Replace it with a fuse of
the same rating. A spare fuse is provided.
Repeated fuse failures indicate a potentially
serious problem. Do not replace it with higher
rated fuse; see your Dealer for service.
The ignition system presents a seri-
ous shock hazard. Use caution to
avoid injury from shock or injury
resulting from your reaction to
shock. Do not handle primary or sec-
ondary ignition components while
the engine is cranking or running.
In an emergency, the engine may be rope-
started and run, this will not harm the engine.
Spark plugs should be serviced by an
Evinrude E-TEC Dealer. Incorrect spark plug
maintenance can lead to engine damage.

Marine Engine Duty Cycles
Remove engine cover. Install spare fuse in
place of failed fuse.
The International Council of Marine Industry
Associations (ICOMIA) Standard No. 36-88
specifies a marine engine duty cycle based on
documented studies. A duty cycle is a profile
of engine running and usage. This duty cycle
is used to determine average spark plug lon-
gevity and maintenance requirements for
Evinrude E-TEC outboards.
