Manufacturer’s Declaration
This outboard motor complies with the requirements of Directive 2003/44/EC in relation to the exhaust and
noise emissions. The following installation and maintenance instructions, if applied, guarantee that the
outboard motor will remain in compliance with:
1. Exhaust emissions limits throughout the normal life or the engine (350 hours or 10 years, whichever
occurs first) and under normal conditions of use.
2. Noise emissions limits under normal conditions of use.
High Altitude Warning
Operation at High Altitude
The density of air at high altitude is lower than at sea level. Engine power is reduced as the air mass
and air fuel ratio decrease. Outboard motor output will be reduced. This is a natural trend and cannot
be changed by adjusting the engine. At sufficiently high altitudes increased exhaust emissions can
also result due to the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio. Other high altitude issues can include
hard starting, increased fuel consumption and spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power loss, dealer can provide a high altitude
carburetor main jet. The alternative main jet and installation instructions can be obtained by contacting
Customer Support.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the application of the high altitude carburetor
main jet are listed in the table below.
