Figure 2-4. Dash Gauges
Engine Temperature
The temperature gauge is located at the lower center left bottom panel of the dash display.
The temperature gauge indicates the temperature of the water/coolant inside the engine.
The proper operating range for your engine is between 140 – 160º F. All engines are
equipped with an engine control module that will cause the engine to run at reduced
speeds (power reduction mode) if the engine is running above recommended operation
temperatures. If you notice that your speed has reduced during normal running operation
without reducing the throttle, monitor your temperature gauge. If your temperature gauge
indicates excessive temperatures, slow down immediately and turn off engine.
Continuing to operate the boat while the temperature is above normal operating
parameters may cause serious damage to your engine.
Oil Pressure
The oil pressure gauge is located at the lower center of the bottom panel of the dash
display. The oil pressure gauge indicates the oil pressure in the engine while the engine is
running and is measured in pounds per square inch (psi). Oil pressure may vary with
engine speed, outside temperatures, oil viscosity and other environmental factors. If the
oil pressure reading is below the normal range, you should stop your engine and check
your oil immediately.
Average pressure ranges are between 6 psi at 1000 RPM and 80 psi at cruising speeds. If
you are experiencing low oil pressure, stop your engine and check your oil before
operating again.
Do not continue to run engine if pressure is low. If you do the
engine can become so hot that the surrounding components
could catch fire.
Notice:
Damage caused from neglected oil problems can be costly.
Such damage is not covered by your warranty.
