NOTICE

Without sufficient cooling water, the engine, the water pump, and other components will

overheat and suffer damage. Provide a sufficient supply of water to the water inlets during

operation.

!

 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.

NOTE: MerCruiser DTS models are equipped with SmartStart. The SmartStart feature

incorporates push button starting. Rather than holding the start button or key switch to start

the engine and then releasing it when the engine starts, SmartStart completely controls

the starting process. When the start button is pushed, the DTS system signals the engine

PCM to start the engine. If the engine does not start, the starting process times out after a

few seconds or when the engine reaches 400 RPM. Attempting to start the engine with the

engine already running will turn the engine off.

3. Turn ignition key to "RUN" position.
4. Turn the ignition key switch to the "START" position then release, or depress the start/

stop button and release. If the engine is cold, allow the engine to operate at idle for 6–

10 minutes or until the engine temperature reaches 60° C (140° F).

5. If the engine does not start after three attempts:

a.

Push the throttle‑only button and position the remote control handle or throttle

lever to the 1/4 throttle position.

b.

Turn the ignition key to "start." Release key when the engine starts and allow the

switch to return to the "on" position.

6. If the engine does not start after step 5:

a.

Move the remote control handle.throttle lever to the full throttle position, then return

to 1/4 throttle.
