OPERATION

If it was necessary to remove the
emergency stop switch lanyard
from your wrist to perform the
emergency starting procedure, be
sure the lanyard is attached to your
wrist before operating the
outboard motor.

If the choke control was used to
start the engine, return the control
to the normal operating position as
the engine warms up.

Have your closest authorized
Honda marine dealer check your
system and correct the problem, so
you can use the recoil starter.

Install the engine cover (p.

),

and lock it in place by locking the
engine cover lock lever.

During the warm-up period, check
the oil pressure indicator (p.

),

and cooling system indicator
(p.

).
