If the battery voltage has dropped significant-
ly, “LO” is displayed on the voltmeter. If the
battery voltage has risen significantly, “HI” is
displayed. If “LO” or “HI” is displayed, immedi-
ately return to shore and have a Yamaha
dealer service the watercraft.
To switch to the voltmeter from the hour
meter:
Push the “Volt/Hour” button for at least 1 sec-
ond after the multifunction information center
is activated for more than 10 seconds. The
display switches to the voltmeter from the
hour meter.

TIP:
The accuracy of the fuel level meter varies de-
pending on the operating conditions. Use this
function as a reference only.

remain on, and the buzzer sounds continu-
ously. After the light and indicator start to blinkand the buzzer sounds, the engine speed is
limited.
If the engine overheat warning is activated,
immediately reduce the engine speed, return
to shore, and then make sure that water is be-
ing discharged from the port (left) cooling wa-
ter pilot outlets while the engine is running. If
there is no discharge of water, stop the en-
gine, and then check the jet intake for clog-
ging. (See page 97 for information on the jet
intake.) NOTICE: If you cannot locate and
correct the cause of the overheating, con-
sult a Yamaha dealer. Continuing to oper-
