IMPORTANT: Avoid engine flooding ‑ Do not advance the throttle
while engine is not running. This will inject fuel into the engine and
may cause a hard starting flooded condition.
IMPORTANT: Outboards with battery charging capabilities must
not be operated with battery cables disconnected from the battery.
Damage to the charging system may result.
5. Do not use the throttle‑only feature on the remote control for
initial starting. After starting the engine, you can slowly
advance the throttle‑only lever, or press the throttle‑only
button and advance the control handle, to increase idle speed
until the engine is warmed up. Keep engine speed below 2000
RPM.
NOTE: Starting Flooded Engine ‑ lift the neutral fast idle lever to
full up and continue to crank the engine for starting.
