EKS fob
Place and hold the EKS fob over the lock in-
dicator in EKS panel to lock and unlock the
EKS.
TIP:
• Be sure to lock the EKS when leaving the
boat, or when leaving the operator’s seat if
children are nearby. Also, check that the
lock indicator is blinking.
• Repeated operation of the EKS fob lock/
unlock function may result in improper
operation. Be sure to operate the EKS fob
in at least 1-second intervals.
• When locking/unlocking with the EKS fob,
do not place the key close to devices pos-
sessing a magnetic field, as this may pre-
vent the lock/unlock operation.
• The EKS will allow to register up to four
EKS fobs. Have a Yamaha dealer register
any additional EKS fobs.
• When operating or stopping the boat, be
sure to carry the EKS fob with you and
take care not to lose it.
• If any EKS fob is lost, be sure to have a
Yamaha dealer delete the registration of
the lost key number for security reasons.
• While operating the ignition switch or
engine start switch, do not turn the steer-
ing wheel or perform any system opera-
tions at the same time, otherwise
unexpected errors may occur.
