Using Your Evinrude E-TEC Outboard
REMOTE CONTROLS — EVINRUDE ICON™ Control System
Evinrude ICON is an intelligent, electronic
shift and throttle control system for use with
ICON equipped outboards. ICON control sys-
tems are available for single– up to five–en-
gine installations. The ICON control system
supports dual station and “flying bridge” appli-
cations.
ICON features include:
• Smooth, effortless shifting
• Gear-position indicators
• Neutral throttle advance
• RPM Tune™ precision speed control
• PowerSync™ automatic engine synchronization
• Multiple engine trim control with one switch
IMPORTANT: The ICON control system must
be used with ICON or I-Command gauges or
other instruments using the NMEA 2000 open
communication standard. For more detailed
information about using ICON control
systems, refer to the “ICON User’s Guide”.
Emergency Stop/Key Switch
The ICON system uses a combination
emergency stop switch and key switch. This
“master switch” controls power to the entire
network.
Connect the clip and lanyard to the emergen-
cy stop/key switch. Snap the lanyard to a se-
cure place on the operator’s clothing or life
vest — not where it might tear away instead of
activating the stop switch. Disconnecting the
clip and lanyard will stop the engine and pre-
vent the boat from becoming a runaway if the
driver moves beyond the range of the lanyard.
Pulling the clip and lanyard stops all out-
boards in a multi-outboard installation.
Individual outboards are started or stopped,
with the rocker switches on switch panel.
1. Clip and lanyard
2. Emergency stop/key switch
3. Engine start/stop switch
IMPORTANT: Your emergency stop switch
can be effective only when in good working
condition. At each outing, inspect clip and lan-
yard for cuts, breaks, or wear. Replace worn
or damaged parts.
WARNING
If you choose a non-Evinrude
remote control, it must have a start-
in-gear prevention feature. This fea-
ture can prevent injuries resulting
from unexpected boat movement
when the engine starts.
WARNING
Avoid knocking or pulling the clip
off the stop switch during normal
boating. Avoid bumping the key if
operating without the clip on the
switch. The resulting unexpected
loss of forward motion can throw
occupants forward, causing injury.
Keep the lanyard free from obstruc-
tions and entanglements.
At each outing, test the system’s
operation. With the engine running,
remove the clip from the switch by
pulling the lanyard. If the engine
does not stop running, see your
Dealer.
