REMOTE CONTROL MODEL
Each time the ignition key is turned to the “ON”
position, the caution lamp will light briefly for the
first two seconds and the buzzer in the remote
control box will also sound.
NOTE:
On remote control model:
The caution buzzer sounds when ignition switch
is turned ON. Then it stops sounding when
engine starts and the oil pressure switch turns
OFF by reaching engine oil pressure at 29.4
kPa (0.30 kg/cm
2
, 4 psi).
NOTICE
If the Caution System is not working properly,
you may not be alerted to a condition that
could cause damage to your outboard motor.
If the caution lamp does not come on briefly
once the starter system is operated, the cau-
tion lamp may be broken or a failure may exist
in the system circuit. Consult your authorized
Suzuki marine dealer.

NOTICE
Continuing to operate your outboard motor
with the Oil pressure Caution System acti-
vated can result in severe damage to your out-
board motor.
If the Oil Pressure Caution System activates,
stop the engine as soon as possible and add
oil if necessary. If the oil level is correct, con-
sult your authorized Suzuki marine dealer.
OVER-REVOLUTION CAUTION SYSTEM
This system is activated when engine speed
exceeds the maximum recommended speed for
more than 10 seconds.
If this system activates, engine speed will
automatically be reduced to approximately
3000 r/min. with the caution lamp lit.
This system must be reset by moving the throt-
tle to the idle position for about one second to
restore full engine operation.
OIL PRESSURE CAUTION SYSTEM
This system operates when the engine lubricat-
ing oil pressure drops below the correct pres-
sure.
If this system activates, the caution lamp will
light. On the remote control model, the buzzer
in the remote control box will simultaneously
begin a series of beeps. When this system is
activated at 2000 r/min. or higher, engine speed
will automatically be reduced to approximately
2000 r/min.
If you continue to run, the engine will automati-
cally stop 3 minutes after beginning of the
above CAUTION system activation.
NOTE:
In case that the engine is automatically stopped
due to the CAUTION system, the engine can be
started again.
However the CAUTION system will repeatedly
activate until eliminating the cause.
NOTICE
If the Over-Revolution Caution System acti-
vates at recommended maximum throttle and
you are sure that the propeller pitch is suffi-
cient and there are no factors like “over-trim-
ming” or “ventilation”, there may be a
problem with the Over-Revolution Caution
System.
Consult your authorized Suzuki marine dealer
if the Over-Revolution Caution System acti-
vates for no apparent reason.
