you boat above 3000 ft. (900 m), you will ex-
perience a slight loss of power due to reduced
air density.
If your engine drops below the recommended
RPM operating range at full throttle, have your
Dealer select a lower pitch propeller.
DUAL OUTBOARD OPERATION
If you return to sea level, have your Dealer in-
stall the original propeller and verify correct
RPM operating range.
When in reverse above slow speed, be sure
both outboards are running, even if one is in
NEUTRAL.
If it is necessary to return to harbor with one
outboard not running, tilt the inoperative out-
board high enough to keep its propeller out of
the water.
COLD AND FREEZING WEATHER
NOTICE

under
32°F
(0°C),
Evinrude/Johnson
XD100 oil, must be used.
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 verti-
cally.
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 40.
NOTICE
Water remaining in the gear-
case, cooling system or other compo-
nents can freeze, causing serious engine
damage.
