Operating Information
HELM AND INSTRUMENTATION
Your Cobalt boat helm will monitor and provide
operation of the boat’s functions. The gauges are
illuminated for night operation. When the switches
are activated, the LEDs will illuminate if the switch
is ON.
On occasion, a small fluctuation in a gauge reading
is not unusual. If an instrument reading is outside
the normal or recommended ranges, determine the
cause or see your authorized Cobalt dealer.
Refer to the engine operator’s manual for normal
recommended ranges.
1. TEMP (Engine Water Temperature Gauge) -
Indicates the water/coolant temperature inside the
engine. Refer to the engine operator’s manual for
normal operating temperature. After starting the
engine, check your temperature gauge for
abnormally high readings. If the reading is outside
the manufacturer’s operating range, immediately
turn off the engine. An abnormally high
temperature is the result of cooling water system
blockage. See your authorized Cobalt dealer when
experiencing a high engine temperature reading.
