air density.
Tilt its gearcase out of the water;
Move all persons into another boat; and
Keep speed slower than planing speed.
If the engine drops below the recommended
RPM operating range at full throttle, select a
lower pitch propeller.
FUSE
If you return to sea level, install the original
propeller and verify correct RPM operating
range.
The engine harness fuse does not affect nor-
mal operation of the outboard. However, a
working fuse is required for communication
with diagnostic software during test proce-
dures.
FREEZING WEATHER
IMPORTANT: When operating in conditions
under 32°F (0°C), Evinrude/Johnson XD100 On outboards equipped with an accesso-
oil MUST be used.
During operation in freezing weather, keep
the gearcase submerged at all times.
Upon removing your outboard from the water,

ry electric starter, a blown fuse will not allow
the starter to operate. 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; the outboard must be serviced.
Fuse Replacement
WARNING
IMPORTANT: Use only fuses of the same rat-
ing. The outboard uses a 10-amp fuse.
Remove engine cover. Install spare fuse in
place of failed fuse.
Water remaining in the gearcase,
cooling system or other compo-
nents can freeze, causing serious
engine damage.
SHALLOW WATER
Gearcase damage can occur if the gearcase
is allowed to drag on the waterway bottom.
Use caution when operating in shallow water.
