Hour Meter
The hour meter records the number of hours the engine has
operated. It operates when the engine is running. Use these
times for scheduling regular maintenance (Figure 6).

The fuel gauge is located with the hour meter, and the bars
light up when the ignition switch is on (Figure 6).
The indicator light appears when the fuel level is
low—approximately 3.8 L (1 US gallon) remaining in the
fuel tank.
