Electric Start Model

7)Open the throttle slightly lifting the neu- tral throttle lever upwards partially. You may need to change the throttle opening slightly depending on engine tempera- ture.

After the engine starts, return the throt- tle to the original position.

NOTE:

As a starting point, lift the lever just until you feel resistance, then lift slightly more.

The operation of the neutral throttle lever is possible only when the remote control lever is in “N”.

8)Press in and hold the main switch to operate the remote choke system. (The remote choke switch returns to its home position when you release your hand. Therefore, keep the switch pressed in.)

NOTE:

It is not necessary to use the choke when the engine is warm.

Set the choke knob to the home position, or the remote choke system will not oper- ate.

9)Turn the main switch to “START”, and hold it for a maximum of 5 seconds.

10)Immediately after the engine starts, release the main switch to return it to “ON”.

CAUTION:

Do not turn the main switch to “START” when the engine is running.

Do not keep the starter-motor turning for more than 5 seconds. The battery will rapidly become exhausted and it will be impossible for it to start the engine. If the engine does not start within 5 seconds, return the main switch to “ON”, wait 10 seconds, and then crank the engine again.
