SMARTCRAFT PRODUCT
A Mercury SmartCraft System instrument package can be
purchased for this outboard. A few of the functions the instrument
package will display are engine RPM, coolant temperature, battery
voltage, fuel consumption, and engine operating hours.
The SmartCraft instrument package will also aid in Engine
Guardian diagnostics. The SmartCraft instrument package will
display critical engine alarm data and potential problems.
Power Trim and Tilt
Your outboard has a trim/tilt control called power trim. This enables
the operator to easily adjust the position of the outboard by
pressing the trim switch. Moving the outboard in closer to the boat
transom is called trimming in or down. Moving the outboard further
away from the boat transom is called trimming out or up. The term
trim generally refers to the adjustment of the outboard within the
first 20° range of travel. This is the range used while operating your
boat on plane. The term tilt is generally used when referring to
adjusting the outboard further up out of the water. With the engine
turned off, the outboard can be tilted out of the water. At low idle
speed, the outboard can also be tilted up past the trim range to
permit, for example, shallow water operation.
