Audible Alarms
Most Mercruiser and Volvo engines use audible alarms. They are
designed to use sensors which pick up deviations from the normal
operating parameters. Oil pressure and temperature sensors send a
signal to a buzzer under the dash which sounds a high pitched alarm
indicating a possible problem. In addition to the dash, some engines
use buzzers at the engine itself.
On start up it is not unusual to hear an audible alarm sound when
cranking the engine over. This occurs normally because it takes a second
or two to build up the engine oil pressure. Then the alarm will stop.
A seasoned skipper monitors his instrument panel often while cruising.
PREVENT POSSIBLE ENGINE DAMAGE.
WHEN AN AUDIBLE ALARM SOUNDS
SHUT DOWN ENGINE IMMEDIATELY,
INVESTIGATE & REPAIR THE PROBLEM.
Each gauge is designed with back lighting so it can be seen at night.
On most models you activate the instrument lighting by energizing
the navigation light switch. Eliminate condensation inside the gauges
by activating the gauge lights.
