Battery Recommendations
The battery charging system of Evinrude out-
boards is designed for use with lead acid type bat-
teries only, including "AGM" and "Gel" type
batteries. If other battery types, such as lithium ion
batteries are used with an Evinrude outboard,
installation of additional equipment may be
required as defined by the battery manufacturer.
American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC)
specifications state:
"Lithium Ion Battery systems pose different
risks from those encountered with lead acid
batteries and should only be installed and
maintained in accordance with manufac-
turer's recommendations."
Failure to follow the battery manufacturer rec-
ommendations may cause the battery to fail,
resulting in a fire or explosion, property dam-
age, and serious injury or death.
When installing lithium ion batteries, installers
MUST correctly install the batteries and the
required battery chargers specified by the battery
manufacturer. Upon delivery, be sure to advise
customers that lithium ion batteries and battery
chargers MUST be properly maintained and
review the battery manufacturer's instructions with
the customer.
