Operation
Alarm
If a fault occurs; the alarm buzzer will sound and the
warning lamps will light up.
Please refer to chapter "Instruments" for more informa-
tion about the indicator lights on the Alarm display and
the alarm buzzer.
Reduce engine speed to idling.
Press the left arrow button on the Button Panel to
acknowledge the message. The alarm buzzer will
become silent. The lights will go of when the fault
disappear.
Please refer to chapter "In case of emergency" and
you will find detailed information about recomended
action in the "Diagnostic function" section.
NOTE! If the installation not includes the Button Panel the
buzzer will sound until the fault has been taken care of.
The fault will also be stored in the form of a fault code
for as long as the malfunction remains. It is possible
to read the fault code during a subsequent service.
Operating with the drive in the Beach range
The beach range is used for operation at reduced speed
in shallow water or where water depth is uncertain.
IMPORTANT! Max. permitted engine speed (rpm)
when running in the “Beach range” is 1 500 rpm.
Check that drive is never trimmed so that the
cooling water intake is out of the water.
For maximum fuel economy
Operate engine at a steady throttle opening. Trim the
drive out/in slightly. The boat is most easily propelled
and speed will increase in the position that gives the
highest engine speed. The throttle opening can then be
slightly reduced to retain the original speed.
In choppy seas or running against a heavy sea
Trim drive so the bows drop. This will provide more
comfortable running.
