WARNING
Explosive fumes contained in the engine compartment can cause serious injury or death from fire or explosion. Before
starting the engine, operate the bilge blower or vent the engine compartment for at least five minutes.
3. Turn ignition key to "START". Release key when engine starts and allow switch to return to "ON" position. Allow engine to
warm up (6‑10 minutes on first start of the day).
NOTE: If the engine has not run for a long period of time it may require a couple of attempts while the fuel bowl refills.
4. If engine does not start after 3 attempts:
a. Push the
throttle only
button and position the remote control handle/throttle lever to the 1/4 throttle position.
b. Turn ignition key to "START". Release key when engine starts and allow switch to return to "ON" position.
5. If engine does not start after step 4:
a. Move the remote control handle/throttle lever to full throttle position, then return to 1/4 throttle.
b. Turn ignition key to "START". Release key when engine starts and allow switch to return to "ON" position.
6. Inspect the power package for fuel, oil, water and exhaust leaks.
7. Move control handle with a firm, quick motion forward to shift to forward gear, or backward to shift to reverse. After shifting,
advance throttle to desired setting.
NOTICE
Shifting into gear at engine speeds above idle will damage the gearcase. Shifting into gear when the engine is not running
can cause misalign the clutch, preventing proper shifting. Always shift the gearcase into gear when the engine is operating at
idle. If you must shift while the engine is not operating, rotate the propeller shaft in the appropriate direction during shifting.
Stopping the Engine
1. Move the remote control handle to neutral/idle and allow the engine to slow to idle speed. If engine has been operated at
high speed for a long period of time, allow the engine to cool at idle speed for 3 to 5 minutes.
2. Turn ignition key to the "OFF" position.
Starting the Engine After It Has Been Stopped While In Gear
IMPORTANT: Avoid stopping the engine if the sterndrive unit is in gear. If the engine does stop, refer to the following
procedure:
1. Push and pull repeatedly on the remote control handle until handle returns to the neutral/idle position. This may take
several tries if the power package was operating above idle RPM when the engine stopped.
2. After the handle returns to the neutral/idle position, resume normal starting procedures.
Throttle‑Only Operation
1. Refer to
Remote Controls
section for remote control features.
2. Move the control lever to the idle/neutral position.
3. Depress and hold the throttle only button, and move the control lever to the idle/forward or idle/reverse position.
4. Advancing the control lever beyond the idle/forward or idle/reverse position will cause engine speed to increase.
IMPORTANT: Moving the control lever back to the idle/neutral position will disengage the throttle only button and allow the
engine to shift into gear.
5. Throttle only mode is deactivated by moving the control lever to the idle/neutral position. Moving the control lever from the
idle/neutral position to the idle/forward or idle/reverse position without pressing the throttle only button will shift the unit into
the chosen gear.
Trailering the Boat
Your boat can be trailered with the sterndrive unit in the up or down position. Adequate clearance is required between the road
and sterndrive when transporting.
If adequate road clearance is a problem, place the sterndrive unit in full trailer position and support it with an optional trailer kit
which is available from your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer.
Freezing Temperature Operation
IMPORTANT: If the boat is operated during periods of freezing temperature, precautions must be taken to prevent freeze
damage to the power package. Damage caused by freezing is not covered by Mercury MerCruiser Limited Warranty.
