JUMP STARTING

➀

Negative (–) jumper cable

➁ Positive (+) jumper cable

If the boat batteries run down, the

engines can be started in an emer-

gency using a 12-volt battery and

jumper cables.

SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH MAY

RESULT IF YOU IGNORE ANY OF

THE FOLLOWING:

● If blower will not operate, venti-

late engine compartment by

opening engine compartment

hatch for several minutes before

attempting jump starting.

● Do not connect the negative (–)

jumper cable to the negative (–)

terminal of the dead battery.

Sparks could ignite battery or

fuel vapors, which could cause

an explosion.

To connect the jumper cables:

1) Connect the positive (+) terminal of

the dead battery to the positive ter-

minal (+)of the booster battery with

the positive jumper cable.

2) Connect one end of the negative (–)

jumper cable to the negative (–) ter-

minal of the booster battery.

3) Connect the other end of the nega-

tive (–) cable to an unpainted bolt on

the cylinder head.

Be sure all connections are secure

and correct before attempting to start

the engine. Any wrong connection

may damage the electrical system.

4) Start the engine, then disconnect

the cables by reversing the above

steps.

Do not turn the starter motor for

more than 5 seconds. If the engine

does not start in 5 seconds, release

the starter switch and try again after

15 seconds. Continuous cranking for

more than 5 seconds will discharge

the battery and the engine will not

start. The starter motor may also be

damaged if it is engaged continuous-

ly for more than five seconds.
