When the meter is activated, all of the fuel
level meter segments and all indicators come
on. After a few seconds, the fuel level meter
displays the remaining amount of fuel and all
indicators go off.

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.
EJU45631Fuel level warning
If the fuel remaining in the fuel tank drops to
about 6.0 L (1.59 US gal, 1.32 Imp.gal), the
lowest fuel level segment blinks.
If the fuel level warning is activated, refill the
fuel tank as soon as possible. (See page 31
for information on filling the fuel tank.)

same time, the 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 33 for information on checking the
engine oil level.) If the oil level is sufficient,
have a Yamaha dealer check the watercraft.
EJU45660Engine overheat warning
If the engine temperature rises significantly,
the “WARNING” indicator light comes on.
While the engine overheat warning is activat-
ed, 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 cooling water pilot
outlet while the engine is running. If there is
no discharge of water, stop the engine, and
then check the jet intake for clogging. (See
page 72 for information on the jet intake.)NOTICE:
If you cannot locate and correct
the cause of the overheating, consult a
Yamaha dealer. Continuing to operate at higher speeds could result in severe en-
gine damage.

Check engine warning
If a sensor malfunction or a short circuit is de-
tected, the “WARNING” indicator light blinks
once for several seconds.
If the check engine warning is activated, im-
mediately reduce the engine speed, return to
shore, and have a Yamaha dealer check the
engine.

Make sure that there is the proper amount of
throttle lever free play when the throttle lever
is in the fully closed (idle) position.
EJU32666Engine shut-off cord (lanyard) check
Make sure that the engine shut-off cord (lan-
yard) is not damaged. If the cord is damaged,
replace it. WARNING! Never try to repair
the engine shut-off cord (lanyard) or tie it
together. The engine shut-off cord (lan-
yard) may not pull free when the operator
falls off, allowing the watercraft to contin-
ue to run and cause an accident.
[EWJ01222] EJU45610
