2. Remove the oil fill cap and add the recommended oil to the midpoint of
the oil level operating range. Adding approximately 1.0 liter
(1.1 U.S. quart) of oil to an empty crankcase will bring the oil level to the
midpoint of the oil level range. Reinstall the oil fill cap.

3. With cooling water properly supplied, idle the engine for five minutes and
check for leaks. Stop the engine and check the oil level on the dipstick.
Add oil if necessary.
Corrosion Control Anodes and Continuity Wire
Your outboard has four corrosion control anodes. An anode helps protect the
outboard against galvanic corrosion by sacrificing its' metal to be slowly
corroded instead of the outboard metals. The continuity wire must be intact to
ensure there is a good bonding circuit. Without this bonding continuity circuit,
accelerated corrosion will occur.
The anodes require periodic inspection, especially in saltwater, which will
accelerate the erosion. To maintain this corrosion protection, always replace an
anode before it is completely eroded. Never paint or apply a protective coating
to an anode; this will reduce the effectiveness of the anode.
The anodes are located as follows:
