Emergency Engine Shutdown Switch
Your boat is equipped with an ignition shutdown safety switch. The switch is located at the helm
under the engine control unit. The ignition shutdown switch incorporates a shut
-
off switch and a
lanyard. Before operating the boat, one end of the lanyard must be connected to the shut
-
off switch
while the other end is connected to the operator. If an emergency arises where the engine must be
shut down, pull the lanyard cord to release it from the shut
-
off switch, which in turn shuts down the
engine(s). This switch is designed to shut the engine(s) off when the operator of the boat leaves the
control station, either accidently by falling into the boat, or by being ejected overboard.
