Chaparral SSX-236, Руководство владельца/оператора

Страница: 53 / 120

This chapter describes standard and optional components factory
installed on our pleasure boats. Depending on how your boat is
equipped, it may or may not have all of the equipment described in
this chapter.
Be sure to read all operation, maintenance, and safety information
contained in each component’s manual before operation. The man-
uals are in your owner’s packet.
Important: Adhere to all safety precautions in the manufac-
turer’s literature when operating the components.
DASHBOARD AND INSTRUMENT PANEL
Instruments on the dashboard are important for monitoring the per-
formance of your boat and alerting you to possible problems or
causes of problems. Please refer to the quick reference information
at the end of this section.
SSX Gauge Package Includes:
3” Tachometer Gauge
3” Speedometer Gauge
2” Fuel Gauge
2” Trim Gauge
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the operating speed of the engine in revo-
lutions per minutes (RPM). This gauge is also the master gauge in
the system, which means it provides data to all the other gauges.
This gauge is equipped with a large LCD display to broadcast critical
engine information and convenience items such as depth, engine
alarms and digital readouts of engine performance. Do not exceed
the maximum RPM range stated by the engine manufacturer.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel in your fuel
tank. The reading is most accurate when your boat is operating at idle
speed. Be aware that you should compare gauge readings with hours
of use versus known fuel consumption because the gauge is only an
approximate reading of the amount of fuel in your boat’s tank.
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the speed your boat is crossing the
water in miles per hour. Water pressure from a water pick up at the
boat’s stern is measured and converted into a reading on the
speedometer.
