5.4 SHUTTING DOWN THE OUTBOARD(S)
Figure: Shutting down one or more
outboards
Ensure your outboard(s) run for 2-5 minutes at idle to cool down prior to shutting off, especially
after hard running. This keeps water moving through the cooling passages while the internals
cool down and helps to prevent localized build-up of salt and other contaminants, which can
lead to performance degradation and damage or failure over time. Bringing your powerhead and
turbochargers back to low temperature slowly is critical to their durability.
To shut down all outboard(s) using a master fob, press and hold the Start button (1) for 2 seconds.
The ignition signal will be turned off, stopping all installed outboards. The green LED on the control
panel will extinguish indicating that MOB protection has been deactivated.
To stop one or more outboards individually, press and hold the corresponding arrow key (2a to 2d)
on the control panel for 2 seconds. The corresponding outboard, or outboard group, will be stopped.
Once shut down, follow the post-use flushing procedure in section 5.10 prior to tilting your outboard(s)
out of water.
WARNING
Shutting down soon after hard running can cause significant
damage to your outboard(s).
