Controls and Indicators
Ignition Keyswitch
This keyswitch starts and stops the engine. A built-in protection
system prevents the engine from starting in any gear other than
NEUTRAL. Refer to Shifter/Throttle in this section and consult
the engine operator’s manual for more information.
There is an accessory position on the ignition keyswitch and an
associated terminal on the back of the switch provided to control
power to add on accessories. Even though power to this terminal is
protected by a 20-amp fuse, do not connect any accessory that
draws more than 10 amps. Attaching an accessory to this terminal
should only be done by a qualified technician.
Smart Pod – Limited or Team
Gauges
• Volts - Indicates the condition of the engine’s cranking
battery in volts DC. With the ignition switch on and the
engine not running, a reading above 12.5 volts indicates a
fully charged battery. With the engine running at idle, the
gauge should read between 12.5 and 13 volts. With the
engine running at cruising speeds and above, it should show
13 to 14.5 volts. Have your Nautique dealer check the
charging system if the voltmeter reads outside these normal
ranges.
• Temp - Indicates the engine coolant temperature. Refer to
the engine 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 indicates a cooling
system problem. Consult your Nautique dealer when
experiencing a high engine temperature reading.
The keypad and switch control box will be
damaged beyond repair if the boat's battery cables, the
main switch control box power leads or battery charger
leads are reversed. DO NOT reverse these connections.
