Mercury 225 Manual page 39

The lanyard is a cord usually 122–152 cm (4–5 feet) in length
when stretched out, with an element on one end made to be
inserted into the switch and a snap on the other end for attaching
to the operator. The lanyard is coiled to make its at‑rest condition
as short as possible to minimize the likelihood of lanyard
entanglement with nearby objects. Its stretched‑out length is
made to minimize the likelihood of accidental activation should
the operator choose to move around in an area close to the
normal operator's position. If it is desired to have a shorter
lanyard, wrap the lanyard around the operator's wrist or leg, or
tie a knot in the lanyard.
