DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
Water and wind conditions permitting, stop the motor, tilt it out of the water and remove any debris like seaweed, plastic bags or sand that may have blocked the water intakes.
Lower the motor into the water, being sure that water intakes are immersed, and restart it.
Check (A) that water discharges from the pilot hole and (B) that the red TEMP lamp is no longer lit.
Be aware that the red TEMP lamp may light again if engine temperature rises abnormally. If either of the above situations arises, your authorized Suzuki Marine Dealer must be consulted as soon as possible.
Operating the engine with the Cooling Water Caution System activated can result in severe engine damage.
If the Cooling Water Caution System activates, stop the engine as soon as possible, wind and water conditions permitting, and inspect the engine according to the above instructions. Consult your authorized Suzuki marine dealer if you cannot correct the problem.
If the engine is operated beyond the maximum trim position, the water intake holes may be above the water line. In this situation, the cooling water caution system may activate.
If abnormal conditions exist in any sensor signal being sent to the control unit, the self-diagnostic system warns of the abnormal condition.
