11. CLEANING AND FLUSHING
After each use in salt water or dirty
water, thoroughly clean and flush the
outboard motor with fresh water.
Do not apply water or corrosion
inhibitor directly to the electrical
components under the engine
cover, such as the AC generator,
LAF sensor, or the AC generator
belt. If water or corrosion inhibitor
penetrates these components, they
may be damaged. Before applying a
corrosion inhibitor, cover the AC
generator, belt and LAF sensor
with a protective material to
prevent damage.
Shut off the engine before performing
the cleaning and flushing.
