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.
If the overheat caution system activates when
operating, reduce engine speed immediately
and check if water is being discharged from the
pilot water hole. If no water is seen, follow the
procedures outlined below.
Water and wind conditions permitting, stop the
engine, tilt it out of the water and remove any
debris like seaweed, plastic bags or sand that
may have blocked the water intakes.
Lower the motor into the water, being sure that
water intakes are immersed, and restart it.
Check (A) that water discharges from the pilot
hole and (B) that the red TEMP lamp is no
longer lit.
Be aware that the red TEMP lamp may light
again if engine temperature rises abnormally. If
either of the above situations arises, your
authorized Suzuki Marine Dealer must be con-
sulted as soon as possible.
NOTICE
Operating the engine with the overheat cau-
tion system activated can result in severe
engine damage.
If the overheat caution system activates, stop
the engine as soon as possible, wind and
water conditions permitting, and inspect the
engine according to the above instructions.
Consult your authorized Suzuki marine dealer
if you cannot correct the problem.

equipment such as P.T.T. system, hydraulic trim
tabs, hydraulic jack plate, etc.

ardous.
Do not attempt to inspect or service the bat-
tery without first reading the warnings, cau-
tions, and instructions in the "BATTERY
INSTALLATION" section of this manual.

• A marginal battery may have enough power
to start your engine, yet may still cause this
caution system to activate whenever engine
or boat accessory use places a high current
demand on the battery.
• If this caution system activates continuously,
even after you have stopped using engine or
boat accessories, contact your authorized
Suzuki Marine Dealer.
