INSTALLATION
Battery Terminals
Connect the positive (+) battery cable
to the positive (+) battery terminal,
then connect the negative (-) battery
cable to the negative (-) battery
terminal.
The negative (-) battery cable should
always be removed from the battery
before connecting or disconnecting
the positive (+) battery cable, so tools
cannot cause a short circuit if they
touch a grounded part while being
used on the positive (+) battery
terminal fitting.
• Be careful to avoid connecting the
battery in reverse polarity, as this
will damage the battery-charging
system in the outboard motor.
• Do not disconnect the battery
cables while the engine is running.
Disconnecting the cables while the
engine is running will damage the
outboard motor’s electrical system.
WARNING: Battery posts,
terminals, and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds.
Wash your hands after handling.
