Stopping The Engine; Remote Control Adjustments - Mercury 200 User Manual

To disengage, move one or both control handles until they are more than 5° apart, reduce engine speed
below 900 RPM, or increase engine speed beyond 95%.

Stopping The Engine

IMPORTANT: Turning key to the "START" position while the engine is running will result in engine shut
down, while leaving the DTS system active. This will allow the use of the power trim/tilt from the remote
control handle.
Reduce engine speed and shift outboard to neutral position. Turn ignition key to "OFF" position.
