A
WARNING
The remote control used must have start-
in-gear prevention. This feature can pre-
vent injuries resulting from unexpected
boat movement when the outboard starts.
Always install and recommend use of an
emergency stop/key switch. Doing so will
reduce the risk of personal injury or death
should the operator fall away from the con-
trols or out of the boat.

Several re mote contro l options, including bo
mechanical and e lectronic systems, are available
in the Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts and
Accessories catalog.
Mechanical control systems use
cables to physically move the sh
components on the outboard.
These systems use a
(MWS) ha rness to carry st art, stop, and trim sig-
nals (analog) to the outb oard. S pecific harness
selection depends on t he type of Inf ormation Dis-
play system being used. Refer to INFORMATION
DISPLAY SYSTEMS on p. 11.
Electronic control systems, such as Evinrude
ICON, manag e all engine control functions
through a low-voltage, digital data network.
