•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.
