Dual analog meter unit
The dual analog meter unit displays various
watercraft information.
Dual analog meter unit initial operation
When the dual analog meter unit is activated,
the speedometer and tachometer make one
sweep, all of the display segments and indi-
cator lights come on. After 2 seconds, the
“WARNING” indicator light and the warning
indicators in the information display go off,
and then the unit starts to operate normally.
TIP:
The “UNLOCK” indicator light will go off
when the engine is started.
Dual analog meter unit standby state
If the dual analog meter unit does not receive
any operation input within 25 seconds after
the engine stops, the unit will turn off and en-
ter a standby state. When the engine is start-
ed again, the displays return to their state
before the unit turned off, and then the unit
starts to operate normally.
EJU37444Speedometer
The speedometer shows the watercraft
speed against water.
The small inner numbers on the meter show
the watercraft speed in kilometers per hour
“km/h” and the large outer numbers show the
speed in miles per hour “mph”.
EJU37245Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine speed.
The numbers on the meter show the engine
speed × 1000 rpm (r/min).

EJU35025Information display
The information display shows watercraft op-
erating conditions.
EJU37265Hour meter/voltmeter
The hour meter/voltmeter has both an hour
meter function and a voltmeter function. By
switching the meter, it can be used as either
an hour meter or a voltmeter.
TIP:
The hour meter is selected at the Yamaha
factory.Hour meter
The hour meter shows the total number of
hours that the engine has been running since
the watercraft was new.
TIP:
The elapsed time will be kept even if the bat-
tery terminals have been disconnected.
To switch to the hour meter from the voltme-
ter:
Push the “Hour Volt” button for at least 1 se-
cond. The display switches to the hour meter
from the voltmeter.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter shows the battery voltage.
When the battery voltage is normal, the volt-
meter displays approximately 12 volts.
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, imme-
diately return to shore and have a Yamaha
dealer service the watercraft.

EJU37272Fuel level meter
The fuel level meter shows the amount of fuel
remaining in the fuel tank. The amount of re-
maining fuel is shown using four display seg-
ments, which disappear one at a time as the
fuel level decreases.
TIP:
The accuracy of the fuel level meter varies
depending on the operating conditions. Use
this function as a reference only.
EJU37285Fuel level warning
If the fuel remaining in the fuel tank drops to
about 18 L (4.8 US gal, 4.0 Imp.gal), the low-
est fuel level segment, the fuel indicator, and
the “WARNING” indicator light blink, and the
buzzer sounds intermittently.
If the fuel level warning is activated, refill the
fuel tank as soon as possible. (See page 47
for information on filling the fuel tank.)
After the fuel tank is refilled, the warning sig-
nals will be cleared when the engine is re-
started.
TIP:
Push the “Hour Volt” button to stop the buzz-
er.

maximum engine speed is limited.
If the oil pressure warning is activated, imme-
diately reduce the engine speed, return to
shore, and then check the engine oil level.
(See page 49 for information on checking the
engine oil level.) If the oil level is sufficient,
have a Yamaha dealer check the watercraft.
TIP:
Push the “Hour Volt” button to stop the buzz-
er.
EJU37304Engine overheat warning
If the engine temperature rises significantly,
the engine overheat warning indicator and
the “WARNING” indicator light blink, and the
buzzer sounds intermittently. Then, the en-
gine overheat warning indicator and the
“WARNING” indicator light stop blinking and
remain on, and the buzzer sounds continu-
ously. At the same time, the maximum 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
being discharged from the port (left) cooling
water pilot outlet 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 92 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-
ate at higher speeds could result in severe
engine damage.
