CAUTION
Before replacing a fuse, disconnect the bat-
tery cable from the battery negative (-) ter-

CAUTION
Never use a fuse with a rating that exceeds
the specified rating as this could cause seri-
ous damage to the electrical system.
If a blown fuse is detected, try to deter-
mine the cause for this and correct it. If
the cause for the problem is not cor-
rected, the fuse will likely blow again.
If the fuse continues to blow, request an
authorized Tohatsu dealer to inspect the
outboard motor.
1. Stop the engine and disconnect the
battery cable from the battery nega-
tive (-) terminal.
