Steering
• Your boat features a power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering system.
• For information about the power-assist fluid reservoir, refer to the engine operation and maintenance manual.
• Boat steering is not self-centering.
• Refer to the engine manual for more steering system details.
Shift/Throttle Controls
Read all of the information about the shift/throttle controls in the shift/throttle manual, the engine operation manual,
and the Sport Boat Owner’s Manual.
Power Trim & Tilt
• The stern drive on your boat is equipped with power trim and tilt.
• Trim and tilt instructions are provided in the engine operation manual and the shift/throttle manual.
Gauges
Cleaning the Gauges
Gauge Fogging
• Moisture may occasionally find its way into the gauges causing lens fogging.
• Turning On the gauge lights will help dry the lenses.
• Fogging will not harm the gauges.
Radio Transmission Interference
VHF or other radio transmissions may cause brief erratic readings on the tachometer. This will not damage the
tachometer gauge or affect its accuracy when not transmitting.
Fuel Gauge
It is normal for the pointer on your fuel gauge to bounce as fuel sloshes back and forth in the fuel tank.
LOSS OF CONTROL HAZARD!
Improper maintenance of the shift/throttle hardware may cause a sudden loss of control!
WARNING!
!
PRODUCT or PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD!
• Use only mild soap and water to clean the gauge lenses and bezels.
• Use of other cleaners, including common window cleaning solutions, may cause the lenses
to crack.
• Lenses cracked in this manner will NOT be covered by our warranty.
