NOTE: The electronic starting system will automatically prime
(choke) the engine and increase idle speed for starting.
9. Check for a steady stream of water flowing out of the water
pump indicator hole.
IMPORTANT: If no water is coming out of the water pump
indicator hole, stop engine and check cooling water intake holes
for obstruction. No obstruction may indicate a water pump failure
or blockage in the cooling system. This condition will cause the
engine to overheat. Have the outboard checked by your dealer.
Operating the engine while overheated will cause engine damage.

Gear Shifting
IMPORTANT: Never shift the outboard into gear unless engine
speed is at idle.
Your outboard has three gear shift positions to provide operation:
forward (F), neutral (N), and reverse (R).
When shifting, always stop at neutral position and allow the engine
speed to return to idle.
Always shift outboard into gear with a quick motion.
