Do not attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear loose. Do not route the lanyard where it
could become entangled, preventing it from functioning.

This could cause people and objects in the boat to be thrown forward.
NOTE:

or your arm or leg. Then install the lock plate on the
other end of the lanyard into the engine stop switch.
