Remote Control Selection
A WARNING
If you choose a non-Evinrude remote
control, it must have a start-in-gear pre-
vention feature. This feature can prevent
injuries resulting from unexpected boat
movement when the engine starts.
Evinrude ICON is an intelligent, electronic
shift and throttle control system for use with
ICON equipped outboards. ICON control sys-
tems are available for single– up to five–en-
gine installations. The ICON control system
supports dual station and "flying bridge" appli-
cations.
ICON features include:
• Smooth, effortless shifting
• Gear-position indicators
• Neutral throttle advance
• RPM Tune precision speed control
PowerSync
• automatic engine synchronization
• Multiple engine trim control with one switch
IMPORTANT: The ICON control system must
be used with ICON or I-Command gauges or
other instruments using the NMEA 2000 open
communication standard. For more detailed
information about
systems, refer to the "ICON User's Guide".
Engine Cut–off Switch/Key Switch
The ICON system uses a combination engine
cut–off switch and key switch. This "master
switch" controls power to the entire network.

A WARNING
Avoid knocking or pulling the clip off the
engine cut–off switch during normal
boating. Avoid bumping the key if oper-
ating without the clip on the switch. The
resulting unexpected loss of forward
motion can throw occupants forward,
causing injury.
Keep the tether cord free from obstruc-
tions and entanglements.
At each outing, test the system's opera-
tion. With the engine running, remove
the clip from the switch by pulling the
tether cord. If the engine does not stop
running, see your Dealer.
Connect the clip and tether cord to the engine
cut–off switch/key switch. Snap the tether
cord to a secure place on the operator's
clothing or life vest — not where it might tear
away instead of activating the engine cut–off
switch. Disconnecting the clip and tether cord
will stop the engine and prevent the boat from
becoming a runaway if the driver moves be-
yond the range of the tether cord. Pulling the
clip and tether cord stops all outboards in a
multi-outboard installation.
Turn the key switch to the RUN position. Indi-
vidual outboards are started or stopped, with
the rocker switches on switch panel.

tion. At each outing, inspect clip and tether
cord for cuts, breaks, or wear. Replace worn
or damaged parts.
