Positioning Outboard For Storage; Battery Storage - Mercury 225 Pro XS User Manual

Positioning Outboard For Storage

Store outboard in an upright (vertical) position to allow water to drain out
of outboard.
If outboard is stored tilted up in freezing temperature, trapped cooling
water or rain water that may have entered the propeller exhaust outlet in
the gearcase could freeze and cause damage to the outboard.

Battery Storage

recharging.
• Remove the battery from the boat and check water level. Recharge if
necessary.
• Store the battery in a cool, dry place.
• Periodically check the water level and recharge the battery during
storage.
