diately, if wind and water conditions make it safe
to do so.
Check the oil level and add oil if necessary. If
the oil level is correct, consult your authorized
Suzuki Marine Dealer.
OVERHEAT CAUTION SYSTEM
This system is activated when the cylinder wall
temperature is too high due to insufficient water
cooling.
If this system activates, the caution lamp will
light. On the remote control model, the buzzer
in the remote control box will simultaneously
begin a series of beeps. When this system is
activated at 3000 r/min. or higher, engine speed
will automatically be reduced to approximately
3000 r/min.
WARNING
If you attempt to remove or reinstall the motor
cover while the engine is running, you may be
injured.
To check the oil level, stop the engine and
then remove the motor cover.
NOTICE
Your engine may become severely damaged If
you rely on the Oil Pressure Caution System
to indicate the need to add engine oil.
Check the engine oil level periodically and add
oil as necessary.
NOTICE
Operating the engine with the Oil Pressure
Caution System activated can result in severe
engine damage.
If the Oil Pressure Caution System activates,
stop the engine as soon as possible and add
engine oil, if necessary, or otherwise correct
the problem.
If you continue to run, the engine will automati-
cally stop 3 minutes after beginning of the
above CAUTION system activation.
NOTE:
In case that the engine is automatically stopped
due to the CAUTION system, the engine can be
started again.
However the CAUTION system will repeatedly
activate until eliminating the cause.
If the overheat caution system activates when
operating, reduce engine speed immediately
and check to see if water is being discharged
from the pilot water hole. If no water is seen, fol-
low the procedures outlined below.
Water and wind conditions permitting, stop the
motor, tilt it out of the water and remove any
debris like seaweed, plastic bags or sand that
may have blocked the water intakes.
Lower the motor into the water, being sure that
water intakes are immersed, and restart it.
Check (A) that water discharges from the pilot
hole and (B) that the caution lamp is no longer
lit.
Be aware that the caution lamp may light again
if engine temperature rises abnormally. If either
of the above situations arises, your authorized
Suzuki Marine Dealer must
be consulted as
soon as possible.
NOTICE
Operating the engine with the overheat cau-
tion system activated can result in severe
engine damage.
If the overheat caution system activates, stop
the engine as soon as possible, wind and
water conditions permitting, and inspect the
engine according to the above instructions.
Consult your authorized Suzuki marine dealer
if you cannot correct the problem.
