Product Manual

Although the occurrence is rare, on a calm day, swimmers and passengers in
an open area of a stationary boat that contains, or is near, a running engine
may be exposed to a hazardous level of carbon monoxide.
1. Examples of poor ventilation while the boat is stationary:
a - Running the engine while the boat is moored in a confined space
b - Mooring close to another boat that has its engine operating
2. Examples of poor ventilation while the boat is moving:
a - Operating the boat with the trim angle of the bow too high
b - Operating the boat with no forward hatches open (station wagon effect)
Lanyard Stop Switch
The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to turn off the engine when the operator
moves far enough away from the operator's position (as in accidental ejection
from the operator's position) to activate the switch. Tiller handle outboards and
some remote control units are equipped with a lanyard stop switch. A lanyard
stop switch can be installed as an accessory ‑ generally on the dashboard or
side adjacent to the operator's position.
A decal near the lanyard stop switch is a visual reminder for the operator to
attach the lanyard to their personal flotation device (PFD) or wrist.
