NOTE:
●
It is not necessary to use the choke when
starting a warm engine.
●
Push in the main switch fully, or the remote
choke system will not operate.
6.
Turn the main switch to “
” (start),
and hold it for a maximum of 5 seconds.
7.
Immediately after the engine starts, re-
lease the main switch and allow it to re-
turn to “
” (on).
CAUTION:
ECM00191
●
Never turn the main switch to “
”
(start) while the engine is running.
●
Do not keep the starter motor turning for
more than 5 seconds. If the starter motor
is turned continuously for more than 5
seconds, the battery will be quickly dis-
charged, thus making it impossible to
start the engine. The starter can also be
damaged. If the engine will not start after
5 seconds of cranking, return the main
switch to “
” (on), wait 10 seconds,
then crank the engine again.

1.
After starting the engine, return the choke
knob to the halfway position. For approx-
imately the first 5 minutes after starting,
warm up the engine by operating at one
fifth throttle or less. After the engine has
warmed up, push the choke knob in fully.
Failure to do so will shorten engine life.
NOTE:
●
If the choke knob is left pulled out after the
engine starts, the engine will stall.
●
In temperatures of -5°C or less, leave the
choke knob pulled out fully for approximate-
ly 30 seconds after starting.
2.
Check for a steady flow of water from the
cooling water pilot hole.
CAUTION:
ECM00511
A continuous flow of water from the cool-
ing water pilot hole shows that the water
pump is pumping water through the cool-
ing passages. If water is not flowing out of
the hole at all times while the engine is
running, overheating and serious damage
could occur. Stop the engine and check
whether the cooling water inlet on the low-
er case or the cooling water pilot hole is
blocked. Consult your Yamaha dealer if
the problem cannot be located and cor-
rected.
