gine speed is reached and both engines
are operating at the same engine speed.
(2) Push the plus side or minus side of the
no-wake mode/cruise assist switch.
Once “Cruise” is displayed in the multi-
function meter, the cruise assist is acti-
vated.
TIP:
Once the cruise assist is activated, the set
engine speed can be increased by pushing
the plus side of the switch or decreased by
pushing the minus side. However, the ad-
justment is limited to a maximum of 8 incre-
ments above or below the initial cruise
assist setting. Each time the switch is
pushed, the engine speed will increase or
decrease approximately 100–200 rpm.
While the cruise assist is activated, the en-
gine speed can also be adjusted by operat-
ing the remote control levers.
To deactivate the cruise assist:
Operate the remote control levers to de-
crease the engine speed to 3000 rpm or less.
Once “Cruise” disappears, the cruise assist is
deactivated.
Operating the boat in reverse with
more thrust (reverse RPM control)
Engine speed in reverse is limited to approx-
imately 4500 rpm. If more thrust is required
when the boat is traveling in reverse, use the
reverse RPM control.
WARNING! Be pre-
pared to reduce throttle as soon as the
boat moves as desired. Otherwise, the
boat may become unstable, which could
result in loss of control and an accident.
To activate the reverse RPM control:
(1) Move the remote control levers back-
ward so that the throttle is opened in re-
verse and both engines are operating at
the same engine speed.
(2) Increase the engine speed to 4500 rpm,
and then push the plus side of the no-
wake mode/cruise assist switch.
TIP:
Once the reverse RPM control is activated,
pushing the plus side of the no-wake
mode/cruise assist switch will increase the
available engine speed by approximately
500 rpm in 3 stages up to a maximum of
6000 rpm, and pushing the minus side will
decrease the available engine speed. Howev-
er, the adjustment is limited to these 3 incre-
ments.
To deactivate the reverse RPM control:
Operate the remote control levers to de-
crease the engine speed to less than
4500 rpm.
