13 Emergency Situations
13.1 Collision
If the outboard strikes some object beneath the water, please follow below
procedures.
1. Stop the outboard immediately and then turn off the main switch.
2. Check the mechanical structure to see if there are damages.
3. Return to the nearest harbor or pier in low power.
4. Call your dealer to check the outboard.
13.2 Sodden Outboard
If the outboard is sodden, stop it immediately and turn off the main switch
then disconnect the battery. Bring the outboard to the dealer. And ensure the
outboard is thoroughly inspected before operating it again.
13.3 Low Battery Level
When the battery voltage is lower than 42V, the throttle power will be limited
gradually along with the voltage drop. When the battery voltage drops below
39V, the outboard will stop automatically to prevent battery over-discharge.
If this happens when the outboard is far away from the shore, and there
is an alternative battery, it’s recommended to wait until the battery voltage
recovered to 42V or above. You can restart the outboard with throttle power
below 1000W.
13.4 Over-temperature Protection
The maximum input power of NAVY 3.0 has been limited to be below 3KW
when the system temperature is a little high. If the system temperature
continues to be warm and surpasses a threshold, the outboard motor will
shut down automatically to avoid over-temperature. Users should stop
operating the outboard and wait until the temperature falls within the normal
operating temperature range.
