If Your Engine Overheats
If your engine overheats, the multi-function
display will show a warning message, the
engine cooling water temperature indicator
and the WARNING lamp will flash, and you
will hear a warning beeper.
To stop the warning beeper, press and hold
any one of the four control buttons (SET,
MODE, ID SET, or ID No.) for about 2
seconds.
If the engine cooling water temperature
reaches a certain level, engine revs are
automatically limited to 3,000 rpm to prevent
damage. If the temperature continues rising,
the engine will automatically shut off and
cannot be restarted until the temperature drops.
•
Return to shore immediately and shut off
the engine. Allow it to cool.
•
Check inside of the hull. If a large amount
of bilge water is found, check connection of
the water hoses in the cooling system.
•
Inspect the jet pump water intake for
clogging.
•
Inspect the impeller for clogging.
•
Flush the cooling system (page 152).
•
After taking the above-mentioned measures
or if there is no obvious problem, start the
engine and slowly ride the PWC (under
3,000 rpm). Monitor the engine cooling
water temperature indicator. If the engine
still overheats, shut off the engine.
Transport your PWC to a Honda PWC
dealer (page 175).
Continuing to ride with an overheated engine
can cause serious engine damage.
