SYSTEMS AND COMPONENTS
Engine Multifunction Gauge or Warning Lights
This gauge indicates the status of specific engine
functions. It is designed to alert the operator to conditions
which can damage the boat’s engine. Refer to the engine
manual for specific information about this gauge.
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the speed your boat is
traveling over the water in miles per hour. Speedometer is
GPS based resulting in a very accurate speed reading. At
times geographical terrain may impact receiving a signal.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine operating speed in
increments of 100 revolutions per minute (RPM). The
tachometer shows engine speed in RPMs under various
engine operating conditions. Some models may have an
engine hour meter built into the tachometer face. The hour
meter is RPM activated. Consult your dealer if you need
more information.
Trim Gauge
The trim gauge indicates the relative position of the drive
unit. Read this gauge carefully, as it does not show
position of unit in degrees. Proper trim should be indicated
by bow attitude and engine RPM. For more information,
see your engine owner’s manual.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter shows battery voltage. If the engine is
running at normal speed (1000 RPMs or higher) and the
alternator is charging, the reading on the meter will range
between 12.0 to 15.5 volts. If the meter reading is high
when the engine is not running and the ignition key or
switch is ON, the battery is fully charged. Significantly
higher or lower readings indicate a battery problem,
alternator malfunction or heavy drain on the battery. Check
the charging system and the battery system for the cause
of these readings. An oscillating reading shows a loose
