To deactivate the cruise assist:
Operate the remote control lever to decrease
the engine speed to 3000 rpm or less. Once
“Cruise” disappears, the cruise assist is de-

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 lever backward
so that the throttle is opened in reverse
and the engine is 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 de-
crease the available engine speed. However,
