2011 Evinrude 40 50 60 hp E-TEC RL TL PL SL Outboard Boat Motor Owners Manual

   Using Your  Evinrude E-TEC Outboard
ENGINE MONITORING
IMPORTANT:
Your
outboard
may
be   SYSTEM SELF-TEST
equipped with an  optional engine monitoring
system such  as I-Command,  SystemCheck,
or equivalent.
During  engine start-up,  pause  with  the key
switch in the ON position. The monitoring sys-
tem  self-tests   by  sounding   a  half-second
beep. SystemCheck gauges self-test by turn-
ing  the  indicator   lights  on  simultaneously,
then off in sequence.
The engine  monitoring system warns  you of
conditions that could damage  your outboard.
The  monitoring system  consists  of  a dash-
mounted gauge, a  warning horn, sensors on
the engine and oil tank, and related wiring.
The system  is compatible  with the   Evinrude
Modular Wiring System (MWS) or can be con-
nected  to  an  I-Command  system, or  other
NMEA 2000 compliant CANbus instruments.
IMPORTANT: If the self-test does not happen
as stated, see your Dealer.
ENGINE MONITOR WARNINGS
Engine monitor system warnings activate the
horn  for  10   seconds  and  the   appropriate
gauge light for  a minimum of 30 seconds,  or
until alarm  is acknowledged.  If the  failure is
momentary  (for  example, oil  moving  in  the
tank), the  engine monitor gauge  light or dis-
play may remain ON for a full 30 seconds be-
fore   going   out.   If   the   unsafe   operating
condition continues, a light or display remains
ON until the key is turned OFF or the failure is
corrected.
GAUGES
Gauges are available  in several styles,  such
as a digital  I-Command gauge with LCD dis-
plays or a basic SystemCheck gauge.
The warning will reoccur at the next startup if
the problem is not corrected.
If  the EMM  senses  a problem  could  cause
permanent  engine damage,  it  will also  limit
engine speed  to 1200  RPM. This  additional
protection feature  is  referred to  as S.A.F.E.
(Speed Adjusting Failsafe  Electronics). If the
engine  was running  faster  than  1200  RPM
when  the  S.A.F.E.   mode  activated,  it   will
shake  noticeably.   Under  certain  operating
conditions the EMM will shut OFF the engine.

Function
The EMM activates the warning horn and the
gauge displays as follows:
WARNING
LOW OIL means that oil in the tank is at re-
serve level (about 1/4 full).
NO  OIL indicates  an  oil  delivery problem
such as  an empty  oil tank  or damaged oil
system.
WATER TEMP or HOT indicates an engine
or EMM overheat condition.
CHECK ENGINE or FAULT is used  to indi-
cate other fault  conditions identified by  the
EMM.
In  the   S.A.F.E.   mode,  the   engine
speed is limited. Under certain con-
ditions,  the  engine’s  limited  speed
may reduce maneuverability of your
boat.
If the S.A.F.E. mode is activated and
you are unable to correct the prob-
lem,  seek  assistance  and/or  return
to safe harbor. Serious engine dam-
age, engine shutoff, and/or reduced
maneuverability may be imminent.
For I-Command and other gauges, refer to the
gauge user’s guide for gauge  displays, oper-
ation, warnings, and monitoring instructions.
