MONITORING SYSTEM
GENERAL
A system monitors the electronic components of the EMS (engine management system) and
other components of the electrical system. When a fault occurs, it sends visual messages
through the information center and/or audible signals through a beeper to inform you of a par-
ticular condition.
A fault code may also be recorded.
When a minor or transient fault occurs, the fault message and beeper will cease automatically
if the condition that caused the fault does not exist anymore.
Releasing the throttle and letting the engine return to idle speed may allow normal operation
to come back.
The electronic system will react differently depending on the fault type. In severe failure, the
engine may not be allowed to be started. In other cases, the engine will operate in limp home
mode (reduced speed).
When a fault occurs, Seek service from an authorized Rotax Jet Propulsion dealer, repair
shop, or person of your own choosing for maintenance, repair, or replacement. Please refer to
the US EPA EMISSION-RELATED WARRANTY contained herein for information about
warranty claims.
PILOT LAMPS AND MESSAGE DISPLAY INFORMATION (TYPICAL)
Indicator lights (pilot lamps), located in the tachometers, inform you of a system anomaly.
An indicator light may be accompanied by a scrolling message in the multifunction display.
See table below for typical malfunction pilot lamps.
Other important items in the maintenance schedule are more difficult and require special tools.
