Battery

The battery contains sulfuric acid
(electrolyte), which is highly
corrosive and poisonous.
Getting electrolyte in your eyes
or on your skin can cause serious
burns.
Wear protective clothing and eye
protection when working near the
battery.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY
FROM THE BATTERY.
For complete information, refer to the
battery manufacturer's instructions.
Minimum Requirements
12 V – 64 Ah/5 HR (80 Ah/20 HR)
(CCA622)
• Be careful to avoid connecting the
battery in reverse polarity, as this
will damage the battery-charging
system in the outboard motor.
• Do not disconnect the battery
cables while the engine is running.
Disconnecting the cables while the
engine is running will damage the
outboard motor's electrical system.
• Battery cable extension: Extending
the original battery cable will cause
the battery voltage to drop due to the
increased length of the cable and
number of connections. This voltage
drop may cause the buzzer to sound
momentarily when engaging the
starter motor and may prevent the
engine from starting. If the engine
starts and the buzzer sounds
momentarily, there may be barely
sufficient voltage reaching the engine.
WARNING: Battery posts,
terminals, and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds.
Wash your hands after handling.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Emission Control System
Information
Source of Emissions
The combustion process produces
carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen,
and hydrocarbons. Control of
hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen
is very important because, under
certain conditions, they react to form
photochemical smog when subjected
to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does
not react in the same way, but it is
toxic.
Honda utilizes appropriate air/fuel
ratios and other emissions control
systems to reduce the emissions of
carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen,
and hydrocarbons.
