SHORT-TERM STORAGE
(BETWEEN USES)
If you must tilt the outboard to remove it from
the water, lower it and allow the cooling sys-
tem to drain completely as soon as you clear
the launch area. Between uses, store your
outboard in a vertical position.
LONG-TERM STORAGE
(WINTERIZATION)
Winterization prepares your outboard for
long-term off-season storage. During winter-
ization, the engine is “fogged” and extra oil is
used to coat internal engine components.
Winterization requires a specific process of
steps.
Closely follow the applicable winterization
procedure for your outboard:
• Remote control
• Tiller control
• Remote control with foot throttle
If you are unsure which procedure is right for
you, contact your Dealer for assistance.
You can confirm your outboard enters winter-
ization mode when the engine runs at fast idle
and:
•The SystemCheck gauge lights flash (if
equipped).
•The I-Command gauge displays winteriza-
tion message (if equipped).
Preparation – All Outboards
Your outboard can be winterized in the water.
If winterizing in water, make sure the water
intake screens are completely submerged.
1) Stabilize the engine’s fuel supply. Add 2+4
Fuel Conditioner following instructions on
container. Fill fuel tank.
2) If winterizing on a trailer, remove the pro-
peller. Attach a garden hose to flushing
port and turn on the water. Refer to Flush-
ing on page 40.
3) Outboard must be in NEUTRAL, and re-
mote control and shift linkage must be in
NEUTRAL position at all times during win-
terization procedure.
Remote Control Outboards
1) For side mount controls, lift fast idle le-
ver. Start the outboard. Outboard runs at
slow idle speed.
Side Mount Control – Typical
For binnacle or concealed side mount
controls, press fast idle button and ad-
vance throttle handle to HALF throttle posi-
tion. Start the outboard. Outboard runs at
slow idle speed.
Binnacle Control – Typical
WARNING
Outboard must be in NEUTRAL
before performing winterization.
Starting outboard in gear can cause
personal injury.
If winterizing on a trailer, the propel-
ler must be removed before per-
forming procedure. Failure to
remove propeller can cause per-
sonal injury or death.
