CAUTION:@ Do not run the engine over 4,000 r/min
to check the meter for operation on
land. The engine could overheat or the
catalytic converter could result in seri-
ous damage.
Use the specified resistor-type spark
plug and cap, otherwise the meter may
function erratically.
@

Engine overheat warning
indicator
If the engine starts to overheat, the warn-
ing light and engine overheat warning indi-
cator begin to blink, and the buzzer sounds
intermittently.
If the watercraft continues to be operated
at higher speeds after the warning system
has been activated, the warning light,
engine overheat warning indicator and the
buzzer will change from intermittently to
continuously on. (See “Engine overheat
warning system” on page 2-12 for further
details.)
The warning signals will turn off when the
engine is started after it has cooled down.
NOTE:@ When the warnings overlap each other, their
priority is as follows:
1. Final overheat warning
2. Fuel level warning
3. Oil level warning
4. Initial overheat warning
5. Exhaust temperature warning
6. Check engine warning

Exhaust temperature warning
indicator
If the exhaust system becomes too hot,
the warning light and exhaust temperature

The warning signals will turn off when the
engine is started after it has cooled down.
