Caution System - Suzuki DF70A Owner's Manual

 WARNING
Setting of the tilt upper limit position will not
prevent the outboard motor from tilting fully
up and contacting the motor well if the
motor's lower unit hits an object at high
speed. Such tilting could damage your motor
and boat and injure the boat occupants.
Keep all occupants away from the motor when
operating at high speed.
MOTOR COVER FASTENING ADJUST-
MENT
If you feel motor cover fastening is loose or too
tight when locking the levers, adjust as follows:
1. Loosen the bolts 1.
2. Adjust the position of brackets 2. To
increase the fastening, move the brackets to
the direction A. To decrease the fastening,
move the brackets to the direction B.
3. Tighten the bolt.

CAUTION SYSTEM

The caution systems are designed to alert you
to certain situations which may cause damage
to your outboard motor.
NOTICE
Your outboard motor may become damaged if
you rely on the Caution System to alert you to
any malfunction that may occur or to give you
an indication of the need for maintenance.
To avoid damage to your outboard motor, reg-
ularly inspect and maintain it.
NOTICE
Continuing to operate your outboard motor
with the Caution System activated can result
in severe damage to your outboard motor.
If the Caution System activates while you are
operating your outboard motor, stop the
motor as soon as possible and correct the
problem or consult your authorized Suzuki
marine dealer for assistance.
INDICATOR CHECK
If equipped with Keyless Start System:
Each time when the Keyless Start System is
turned to ON state by turning the main switch to
the "ON & OFF" position and then turning it
back to the "PUSH START/STOP" position, four
lamps – the REV LIMIT 1, the OIL 2, the
TEMP 3 and the CHECK ENGINE 4 in the
monitor-tachometer will light and the buzzer will
also sound for the first two seconds.
For the next three seconds, the monitor-
tachometer will indicate the total motor operat-
ing hours by means of the lamp flashing and
needle indicating.
After this brief check period, the monitor-
tachometer will return to their stand-by mode
and four lamps will continue to light until when
the Keyless Start System is turned to OFF
State or when the engine is started.
NOTE:
If the caution system is activated, only the cor-
responding lamp will light.
