19. Retain the quick‑connect fitting with the water hose end for repeated use by storing it separately in a storage compartment
on the boat for easy access.
IMPORTANT: Do not store the quick‑connect fitting in the flush socket on the engine. Doing so would allow the seawater
pump to suck air during engine operation causing an overheating problem. Damages due to engine overheating are not
covered by Mercury MerCruiser Warranty.
