weeds, muddy and debris-laden water, and at
extreme trim angles.
If an overheat occurs, the
EMM
will initiate the
following failsafe actions:
IF
S.A.F.E.
mode activates and the stream
from the water pump indicator becomes inter-
mittent or stops, as soon as possible reduce
speed to idle and:
1) Shift to NEUTRAL.
2) SHUT OFF the engine.
3) Tilt the outboard up.
4) Clean the intake screens of any blockage.
5) Clean the water pump indicator of any
blockage.
6) Lower the outboard.
7) Restart the engine and run at idle.
IF
cleaning the screens and indicator
does
NOT
restore the water pump indicator’s
steady discharge, the engine will continue to
operate in
S.A.F.E.
mode. Return to safe har-
bor immediately.
After an overheat service the engine as soon
as possible:
• Inspect the water pump for excessive wear
or damage.
• Inspect the thermostat.
Although
S.A.F.E.
mode can
help prevent engine damage, it does not
guarantee you can run the engine indefi-
nitely without engine damage.
DIAGNOSTIC LEDS
The Engine Management Module (
EMM)
has
four LED indicators located on the top corner
of the circuit board. The LEDs provide quick
reference to the status of several outboard
systems.
The LEDs can be used to identify specific
warning functions of
S.A.F.E.
mode activa-
tion.
IMPORTANT:
LED 1 is closest to the center
of the
EMM
.
Remove the engine cover to view the LEDs.
The LEDs identify system functions in two
modes, Start Mode and Running Mode.
As the outboard is being started, all four LEDs
should light and then go OFF in sequence.
When the outboard is running, all LEDs
should be OFF.
