5.Immediately after the engine starts, re- lease the main switch to return it to the “
” (on) position. NOTICE: Never turn
the main switch to “
” (start) while the engine is running. Do not keep the starter motor turning for more than 5 seconds. If the starter mo- tor is turned continuously for more than 5 seconds, the battery will be quickly discharged, thus making it im- possible to start the engine. The start- er can also be damaged. If the engine will not start after 5 seconds of crank- ing, return the main switch to “
” (on), wait 10 seconds, then crank the engine again. [ECM00192]

Cooling water
Check for a steady flow of water from the cooling water pilot hole. A continuous flow of water from the cooling water pilot hole shows that the water pump is pumping water through the cooling water passages.
TIP:
When the engine is started, there may be a slight delay before water flows from the cooling water pilot hole.

NOTICE
If water is not flowing out of the cooling water pilot hole at all times while the engine is running, overheating and serious damage could occur. Stop the engine and check whether the cooling water inlet on the lower case or the cooling water pilot hole is blocked. Consult your Yamaha dealer if the problem cannot be located and corrected.
