CONDITIONS THAT MUST BE MET IN ORDER TO OBTAIN WARRANTY

COVERAGE: Warranty coverage is available only to retail customers that

purchase from a Dealer authorized by Mercury Marine to distribute the product

in the country in which the sale occurred, and then only after the Mercury

Marine specified predelivery inspection process is completed and documented.

Warranty coverage becomes available upon proper registration of the product

by the authorized dealer. Corrosion prevention devices specified in the

Operation and Maintenance Manual must be in use on the boat, and routine

maintenance outlined in the Operation and Maintenance Manual must be timely

performed (including, without limitation, the replacement of sacrificial anodes,

use of specified lubricants, and touch‑up of nicks and scratches) in order to

maintain warranty coverage. Mercury Marine reserves the right to make

warranty coverage contingent upon proof of proper maintenance.

WHAT MERCURY WILL DO: Mercury's sole and exclusive obligation under

this warranty is limited to, at our option, repairing a corroded part, replacing

such part or parts with new or Mercury Marine certified remanufactured parts,

or refunding the purchase price of the Mercury product. Mercury reserves the

right to improve or modify products from time to time without assuming an

obligation to modify products previously manufactured.

HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY COVERAGE: The customer must provide

Mercury with a reasonable opportunity to repair, and reasonable access to the

product for warranty service. Warranty claims shall be made by delivering the

product for inspection to a Mercury dealer authorized to service the product. If

purchaser cannot deliver the product to such a dealer, written notice must be

given to Mercury. We will then arrange for the inspection and any covered

repair. Purchaser, in that case, shall pay for all related transportation charges

and/or travel time. If the service provided is not covered by this warranty,

purchaser shall pay for all related labor and material, and any other expenses

associated with that service. Purchaser shall not, unless requested by Mercury,

ship the product or parts of the product directly to Mercury. Proof of registered

ownership must be presented to the dealer at the time warranty service is

requested in order to obtain coverage.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED: This limited warranty does not cover electrical

system corrosion; corrosion resulting from damage, corrosion which causes

used in a commercial application. Commercial use is defined as any work or

employment related use of the product, or any use of the product which

generates income, for any part of the warranty period, even if the product is

only occasionally used for such purposes.

WARRANTY INFORMATION

WARRANTY INFORMATIONWARRANTY INFORMATION

Corrosion damage caused by stray electrical currents (onshore power

connections, nearby boats, submerged metal) is not covered by this corrosion

warranty and should be protected against by the use of a corrosion protection

system, such as the Mercury Precision Parts or Quicksilver MerCathode

system and/or Galvanic Isolator. Corrosion damage caused by improper

application of copper base antifouling paints is also not covered by this limited

warranty. If antifouling protection is required, Tri‑Butyl‑Tin‑Adipate (TBTA) base

antifouling paints are recommended on Outboard and MerCruiser boating

applications. In areas where TBTA base paints are prohibited by law, copper

base paints can be used on the hull and transom. Do not apply paint to the

outboard or MerCruiser product. In addition, care must be taken to avoid an

electrical interconnection between the warranted product and the paint. For

MerCruiser product, an unpainted gap of at least 38 mm (1.5 in.) should be left

around the transom assembly. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual

for additional details.

Emission Control Warranty Statement

Emission Control Warranty StatementEmission Control Warranty Statement

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS: The California Air

Resources Board is pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on

your 2014–2015 model year outboard engine. In California, new outboard

engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State's stringent

anti‑smog standards. Mercury Marine must warrant the emission control

system on your outboard engine for the periods of time listed below, provided

there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your outboard

engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel

injection system, the ignition system, and catalytic converter. Also included may

be hoses, belts, connectors, and other emission‑related assemblies.

coverage based on the hourly period is only permitted for outboard engines and

personal watercraft equipped with hour meters as defined in s 2441(a)(13) or

their equivalent. If any emission‑related part on your engine is defective under

OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES: As the outboard engine owner,

you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in

receipts covering maintenance on your outboard engine, but Mercury Marine

cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the

performance of all scheduled maintenance.

As the outboard engine owner, you should, however, be aware that Mercury

Marine may deny you warranty coverage if your outboard engine or a part has

failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved

modifications.

You are responsible for presenting your outboard to a Mercury dealer

authorized to service the product as soon as a problem exists. The warranty

repairs will be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30

days.

the purchaser for all related transportation charges and travel time. If the

service provided is not covered by this limited warranty, the purchaser shall pay

for all related labor and material and any other expenses associated with that

service, provided that a consumer will not be obligated to pay where the service

has been carried out to remedy a failure of an acceptable quality guarantee

Lanyard Stop Switch

Lanyard Stop SwitchLanyard Stop Switch

The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to turn off the engine when the operator

moves far enough away from the operator's position (as in accidental ejection

from the operator's position) to activate the switch. Tiller handle outboards and

some remote control units are equipped with a lanyard stop switch. A lanyard

stop switch can be installed as an accessory ‑ generally on the dashboard or

side adjacent to the operator's position.

A decal near the lanyard stop switch is a visual reminder for the operator to

attach the lanyard to their personal flotation device (PFD) or wrist.

GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATIONGENERAL INFORMATION

22 eng

The lanyard cord is usually 122–152 cm (4–5 feet) in length when stretched out,

with an element on one end made to be inserted into the switch and a clip on

the other end for attaching to the operator's PFD or wrist. The lanyard is coiled

to make its at‑rest condition as short as possible to minimize the likelihood of

lanyard entanglement with nearby objects. Its stretched‑out length is made to

minimize the likelihood of accidental activation should the operator choose to

move around in an area close to the normal operator's position. If it is desired

to have a shorter lanyard, wrap the lanyard around the operator's wrist or leg,

or tie a knot in the lanyard.

Read the following Safety Information before proceeding.

Important Safety Information: The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to stop

the engine when the operator moves far enough away from the operator's

position to activate the switch. This would occur if the operator accidentally falls

overboard or moves within the boat a sufficient distance from the operator's

position. Falling overboard and accidental ejections are more likely to occur in

certain types of boats such as low sided inflatables, bass boats, high

performance boats, and light, sensitive handling fishing boats operated by a

hand tiller. Falling overboard and accidental ejections are also likely to occur as

a result of poor operating practices such as sitting on the back of the seat or

gunwale at planing speeds, standing at planing speeds, sitting on elevated

fishing boat decks, operating at planing speeds in shallow or obstacle infested

waters, releasing your grip on a steering wheel or tiller handle that is pulling in

one direction, drinking alcohol or consuming drugs, or daring high speed boat

maneuvers.

While activation of the lanyard stop switch will stop the engine immediately, a

boat will continue to coast for some distance depending upon the velocity and

degree of any turn at shut down. However, the boat will not complete a full

circle. While the boat is coasting, it can cause injury to anyone in the boat's

path as seriously as the boat would when under power.

WHILE YOU ARE CRUISING

WHILE YOU ARE CRUISINGWHILE YOU ARE CRUISING

It is very difficult for a person standing or floating in the water to take quick

action to avoid a boat heading in his/her direction, even at slow speed.

21604

Always slow down and exercise extreme caution any time you are boating in an

area where there might be people in the water.

Whenever a boat is moving (coasting) and the outboard gear shift is in neutral

position, there is sufficient force by the water on the propeller to cause the

propeller to rotate. This neutral propeller rotation can cause serious injury.

BE ALERT TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONINGBE ALERT TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a deadly gas that is present in the exhaust fumes of

all internal combustion engines, including the engines that propel boats, and

the generators that power boat accessories. By itself, CO is odorless, colorless,

and tasteless, but if you can smell or taste engine exhaust, you are inhaling

CO.

Early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, which are similar to the

symptoms of seasickness and intoxication, include headache, dizziness,

drowsiness, and nausea.

Engine exhaust gases contain harmful carbon monoxide. Avoid areas of

concentrated engine exhaust gases. When engines are running, keep

swimmers away from the boat, and do not sit, lie, or stand on swim platforms or

boarding ladders. While underway, do not allow passengers to be positioned

immediately behind the boat (platform dragging, teak/body surfing). This

dangerous practice not only places a person in an area of high engine exhaust

concentration, but also subjects them to the possibility of injury from the boat

propeller.

GOOD VENTILATION

Passenger boarding.

• Stop the engine whenever passengers are boarding, unloading, or are

near the back (stern) of the boat. Shifting the drive unit into neutral is not

sufficient.

Use personal flotation devices.

• Federal law requires that there be a U.S. Coast Guard‑approved life

jacket (personal flotation device), correctly sized and readily accessible

for every person onboard, plus a throwable cushion or ring. We strongly

advise that everyone wear a life jacket at all times while in the boat.

Prepare other boat operators.

GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATIONGENERAL INFORMATION

28 eng

• Instruct at least one person onboard in the basics of starting and

operating the engine and boat handling in case the driver becomes

disabled or falls overboard.

Do not overload your boat.

• Most boats are rated and certified for maximum load (weight) capacities

(refer to your boat's capacity plate). Know your boat's operating and

loading limitations. Know if your boat will float if it is full of water. When in

doubt, contact your authorized Mercury Marine dealer or the boat

manufacturer.

Ensure that everyone in the boat is properly seated.

• Do not allow anyone to sit or ride on any part of the boat that was not

intended for such use. This includes the backs of seats, gunwales,

transom, bow, decks, raised fishing seats, and any rotating fishing seat.

Passengers should not sit or ride anywhere that sudden unexpected

acceleration, sudden stopping, unexpected loss of boat control, or sudden

boat movement could cause a person to be thrown overboard or into the

boat. Ensure that all passengers have a proper seat and are in it before

any boat movement.

Never operate a boat while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. It is

the law.

• Alcohol or drugs can impair your judgment and greatly reduce your ability

to react quickly.

Know your boating area and avoid hazardous locations.

Be alert.

• The operator of the boat is responsible by law to maintain a proper

lookout by sight and hearing. The operator must have an unobstructed

view particularly to the front. No passengers, load, or fishing seats should

block the operator's view when the boat is above idle or planing transition

speed. Watch out for others, the water, and your wake.

Never drive your boat directly behind a water skier.

• Your boat traveling at 40 km/h (25 mph) will overtake a fallen skier who is

61 m (200 ft) in front of you in five seconds.

Watch fallen skiers.

• When using your boat for waterskiing or similar activities, always keep a

fallen or down skier on the operator's side of the boat while returning to

attend to the skier. The operator should always have the down skier in

sight and never back up to the skier or anyone in the water.

Report accidents.

GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATIONGENERAL INFORMATION

eng 29

• Boat operators are required by law to file a boating accident report with

their state boating law enforcement agency when their boat is involved in

certain boating accidents. A boating accident must be reported if 1) there

is loss of life or probable loss of life, 2) there is personal injury requiring

medical treatment beyond first aid, 3) there is damage to boats or other

property where the damage value exceeds $500.00, or 4) there is

complete loss of the boat. Seek further assistance from local law

enforcement.

This type of gasoline is required in certain areas of the USA. The two types of

oxygenates used in these fuels are alcohol (ethanol) or ether (MTBE or ETBE).

If ethanol is the oxygenate that is used in the gasoline in your area, refer to

Gasolines Containing Alcohol.

These reformulated gasolines are acceptable for use in your Mercury Marine

engine.

GASOLINES CONTAINING ALCOHOL

GASOLINES CONTAINING ALCOHOLGASOLINES CONTAINING ALCOHOL

If the gasoline in your area contains either methanol (methyl alcohol) or ethanol

(ethyl alcohol), you should be aware of certain adverse effects that can occur.

These adverse effects are more severe with methanol. Increasing the

percentage of alcohol in the fuel can also worsen these adverse effects.

Some of these adverse effects are caused because the alcohol in the gasoline

can absorb moisture from the air, resulting in a separation of the water/alcohol

from the gasoline in the fuel tank.

The fuel system components on your Mercury Marine engine will withstand up

to 10% alcohol content in the gasoline. We do not know what percentage your

boat's fuel system will withstand. Contact your boat manufacturer for specific

recommendations on the boat's fuel system components (fuel tanks, fuel lines,

and fittings). Be aware that gasolines containing alcohol may cause increased:

• Corrosion of metal parts

• Deterioration of rubber or plastic parts

• Fuel permeation through rubber fuel lines

• Starting and operating difficulties

SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE PORTABLE FUEL TANK

SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE PORTABLE FUEL TANKSPECIAL FEATURES OF THE PORTABLE FUEL TANK

• The fuel tank has a two‑way valve which allows air to enter the tank as

the fuel is drawn to the engine, and also opens to vent to the atmosphere

if internal pressure in the tank exceeds 34.4 kPa (5.0 psi). A hissing noise

may be heard as the tank vents to the atmosphere. This is normal.

• The fuel tank includes a fuel demand valve that prevents pressurized fuel

from entering the engine and causing a fuel system overflow or possible

fuel spillage.

• When installing the fuel tank cap, turn the cap to the right until you hear a

click. This signals that the fuel cap is fully seated. A built‑in device

prevents overtightening.

• The fuel tank has a manual vent screw which should be closed for

transportation and open for operation and cap removal.

Since sealed fuel tanks are not vented, they will expand and contract as the

fuel expands and contracts during heating and cooling cycles of the outside air.

This is normal.

Fill the fuel tanks outdoors away from heat, sparks, and open flames.

Remove the portable fuel tanks from the boat to fill them.

Always stop the engine before filling the tanks.

Do not completely fill the fuel tanks. Leave approximately 10% of the tank

volume unfilled. Fuel will expand in volume as its temperature rises and can

leak under pressure if the tank is completely filled.

normal boat operating conditions.

Engine Oil Recommendations

Engine Oil RecommendationsEngine Oil Recommendations

Mercury or Quicksilver NMMA FC‑W certified SAE 10W‑30 4‑Stroke Marine

Engine Oil is recommended for general, all‑temperature use. If NMMA certified

synthetic blend oil is preferred, use Mercury or Quicksilver SAE 25W‑40

Synthetic Blend Marine 4‑Stroke Engine Oil. If the recommended Mercury or

Quicksilver NMMA FC‑W certified outboard oils are not available, a major

FC‑W certified 4‑stroke outboard oil may be used.

1. Position the outboard vertical and remove the top cowl.

2. Remove the oil filler cap. Wipe oil off the dipstick and screw the oil filler

cap back into the oil fill hole completely. Remove the oil filler cap and

check oil level on dipstick. Oil must be between full mark and add mark. If

oil level is low, add oil to bring level no higher than the full mark.

NOTE:

NOTE: NOTE: If oil level is at the add mark, add 100 ml (3 oz) of oil.

NOTE:

NOTE: NOTE: Under certain conditions, the operating temperature of four‑stroke

outboard engines may not get hot enough to evaporate the normal fuel and

moisture that accumulate in the crankcase. These conditions include operating

at idle for long periods, repeated short trips, slow speed or quick stop‑and‑go

operation, and operating in cooler climates. This additional fuel and moisture

that collects in the crankcase eventually ends up in the oil sump and will add

to the total volume of oil that appears on the dipstick reading. This increase in

oil volume is known as oil dilution. Outboard engines can typically handle large

amounts of oil dilution without causing durability problems. However, to ensure

extended life of the outboard engine, Mercury recommends that the oil be

changed regularly following the oil change interval and using the

recommended oil quality. It is further recommended that if your outboard is

operated frequently in the conditions described above, that more frequent oil

change intervals be considered.

3. Install the oil filler cap and tighten securely.
