CONNECTION OF BATTERY CABLE
• Connect the battery cable securely to the battery.
• Connect the battery cable and sub battery cable to the posi-
tive + and negative - terminals of the battery.
NOTE:
Connect the sub battery cable securely to the positive + and
negative - terminals of the battery.
If the sub battery cable is not correctly connected to the battery,
the engine cannot start (operate).
NOTE:
Locate the sub-battery cable fuse at visible place for easy main-
tenance to boat operator.
NOTICE
NOTE:
In multiple-motor installation, to maintain the BCM power
source, all of the negative battery terminals should be connected
together.
Failure at the battery connection will cause incorrect
operation of the engine control system.
Be sure to take the following precautions:
• Ensure battery cable connections are clean and
secure.
• Be sure to use hexagon nuts to secure battery
cables to the battery terminals to avoid loss of elec-
trical power.
Do not use wing nuts to secure the battery cables.
• Check the nuts periodically for proper tightness.
Failure to follow these instructions may cause the wire
to overheat and a fire may result.
Use a cable with AWG (American Wire Gauge) number
2 or larger thickness (lower gauge number) to connect
the negative battery terminals.
