Engine System Emergencies
Oil Pressure Out of Range
OIL PRESS Warning
Oil pressure below 10 psi or above 100 psi. If low oil pressure is low,
the engine has probably lost a significant amount of its oil and engine
failure may be imminent. Immediately reduce engine power to idle and
select a suitable forced landing field.
If low oil pressure is accompanied by normal oil temperature, it is
possible that the oil pressure sensor, gage, or relief valve is
malfunctioning. In any case, land as soon as practical and determine
cause.

This message will appear prior to engine start and should
