OIL TEMPERATURE CAUTION SYSTEM
This system is activated when the engine oil
temperature is too high due to insufficient oil
cooling or deterioration in quality of engine oil
.
If this system activates, the “High Oil Temp” and
caution alarm icon are displayed on screen,
and the buzzer sounds. In addition, when this
system is activated at 3000 r/min. or higher,
engine speed will automatically be reduced to
approximately 3000 r/min.
If you continue to run, the engine will automati-
cally stop 3 minutes after beginning of the
above CAUTION system activation.
NOTE:
In case that the engine is automatically stopped
due to the CAUTION system, the engine can be
started again.
However the CAUTION system will repeatedly
activate until eliminating the cause.
The “High Oil Temp” indication clears when any
of the button is pressed in the gauge. However,
the caution alarm icon is displayed until elimi-
nating the cause.
If the oil temperature caution system activates
when operating, stop the engine immediately, if
wind and water conditions make it to do so.
Check the engine oil condition.
If the oil condition is fine, consult your autho-
rized Suzuki Marine Dealer.
NOTICE
If this system activates for no apparent rea-
son, there may be a problem with the system.
Consult your authorized Suzuki marine dealer.
OVERHEAT CAUTION SYSTEM
This system is activated when the cylinder wall
temperature is too high due to insufficient water
cooling.
NOTE:
The overheat caution system will not detect
high combustion chamber temperature caused
by, for example, an oil system malfunction, poor
quality fuel, or spark plugs with an incorrect
heat range.
If this system activates, the “Overheat” and cau-
tion alarm icon are displayed on screen, and
the buzzer sounds. In addition, when this sys-
tem is activated at 2000 r/min. or higher, engine
speed will automatically be reduced to approxi-
mately 2000 r/min.
If you continue to run, the engine will automati-
cally stop 3 minutes after beginning of the
above CAUTION system activation.
NOTE:
In case that the engine is automatically stopped
due to the CAUTION system, the engine can be
started again.
However the CAUTION system will repeatedly
activate until eliminating the cause.
The “Overheat” indication clears when any of
the button is pressed in the gauge. However,
the caution alarm icon is displayed until elimi-
nating the cause.
If the overheat caution system activates when
operating, reduce engine speed immediately
and check if water is being discharged from the
pilot water hole. If no water is seen, follow the
procedures outlined below.
