Each time the ignition key is turned to the “ON”
position, four lamps – the REV LIMIT

, the
OIL

, the TEMP

and the CHECK ENGINE

in the monitor-tachometer will light briefly
and the buzzer will also sound for the first two
seconds, regardless of the motor conditions.
For the next three seconds, the monitor-
tachometer will indicate the total motor operat-
ing hours by means of the lamp flashing and
needle indicating.
After this brief check period, the monitor-
tachometer will return to their stand-by mode
and will only respond to motor conditions
requiring a caution alert.
NOTE:
For checking the total motor operating hours,
refer to the CHART OF TOTAL OPERATING
HOURS INDICATION on the last page.
NOTICE
If the Caution System is not working
properly, you may not be alerted to a con-
dition that can cause damage to your out-
board motor.
If any of the four lamps does not come on
or the buzzer does not sound when the
ignition key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, the lamps or buzzer may be broken
or a failure may exist in the system cir-
cuit. Consult your authorized Suzuki
marine dealer.
OVER-REVOLUTION CAUTION SYSTEM
This system is activated when engine speed
exceeds maximum recommended speed for
more than 10 seconds.
If this system activates, engine speed will
automatically be reduced to approximately
3000 r/min. with red REV LIMIT lamp lit.
This system must be reset by moving the throt-
tle to the idle position for about one second to
restore full engine operation.
NOTICE
If the Over-Revolution Caution System
activates at recommended maximum
throttle and you are sure that the propel-
ler pitch is sufficient and there are no fac-
tors like “over-trimming” or “ventilation”,
there may be a problem with the Over-
Revolution Caution System.
Consult your authorized Suzuki marine
dealer if the Over-Revolution Caution
System activates for no apparent reason.
