CONTINUED OPERATION OF AN OVERHEATED
ENGINE CAN RESULT IN ENGINE SEIZURE. IF
AN UNUSUALLY HIGH TEMPERATURE READING
OCCURS, SHUT THE ENGINE OFF IMMEDIATELY.
THEN INVESTIGATE AND CORRECT THE
PROBLEM.
Oil Pressure Gauge
The oil pressure gauge monitors the engine lubri-
cation system pressure. The oil pressure indi-
cated when the engine is new is usually the refer-
ence for normal oil pressure for that engine. A
drop in oil pressure is a possible indication of oil
pump problems, a leak or fuel diluted oil.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of fuel in the
fuel tank. This gauge is merely a relative indica-
tion of the available fuel supply and not a cali-
brated instrument.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter displays the voltage for the bat-
tery and the charging system. The normal volt-
age is 11 to 12.5 volts with the engines off, and
13 to 14.5 volts with the engine running.
Hour Meter
The hour meter keeps a record of the operating
time for the engine. The hour meters are located
in the in the tachometers or multi-meters on most
installations.
Tilt/Trim Gauge
The tilt/trim gauge monitors the position of the
outdrive. The upper range of the gauge indicates
the tilt, which is used for trailering and shallow
water operation. The lower range indicates the
trim position. This is the range used to adjust the
hull angle while operating your boat on plane.
Please refer to Chapter 2 and the engine owner's
manual for more information on the operation of
the outdrive power tilt and trim.
Trim Tab Indicator Gauges
Monitors the position of the trim tabs. The trim
tabs should always be returned to the full up po-
sition whenever the boat is moored or before lift-
ing the boat with a lift.
BI Data Gauge
The depth gauge indicates the depth of the wa-
ter below the bottom of the boat, the boat speed,
and water temperature.
Fuel Management (Optional)
Fuel management systems are optional and could
be installed on your boat separately or as part of
the engine monitoring system. The fuel manage-
ment gauge is used to monitor the gallons per
hour and also total gallons used. If you have a
fuel management system installed on your boat,
please refer to the engine or fuel management
manual for information on that system.
Engine Alarm
Inboard engines are equipped with an audible alarm
system mounted in the helm area that monitors
selected critical engine systems. The alarm will
sound if one of these systems begins to fail. Re-
fer to the engine owner’s manual for information
on the alarms installed with your engine.
If an engine alarm sounds, immediately shut off
the engine until the problem is found and cor-
rected.
Volvo Penta EDC Display
The Volvo Penta electronic engine monitoring sys-
tem is standard with Volvo diesel engines and op-
tional on some Volvo gas engines. The system
monitors all of your engine functions on one in-
strument at the touch of a button. Engine speed,
coolant temperature, battery voltage, and boost
pressure (diesel engines) can be monitored in ana-
