If equipped with monitor-tachometer:
If this system activates, engine speed will auto-
matically be reduced to approximately 3000
r/min. with red REV LIMIT lamp lit.
This system must be reset by moving the throt-
tle to the idle position for about one second to
restore full engine operation.
OIL PRESSURE CAUTION SYSTEM
This system operates when the engine lubricat-
ing oil pressure drops below the correct level.
If this system activates, stop the engine imme-
diately, if wind and water conditions make it safe
to do so.
NOTICE
If the Over-Revolution Caution System acti-
vates at recommended maximum throttle and
you are sure that the propeller pitch is suffi-
cient and there are no factors like “over-trim-
ming” or “ventilation”, there may be a
problem with the Over-Revolution Caution
System.
Consult your authorized Suzuki marine dealer
if the Over-Revolution Caution System acti-
vates for no apparent reason.
NOTICE
Your engine may become severely damaged If
you rely on the Oil Pressure Caution System
to indicate the need to add engine oil.
Check the engine oil level periodically and add
oil as necessary.
1. When this system is activated at 1000 r/min.
or higher, engine speed will automatically be
reduced to approximately 1000 r/min.
If equipped with multi-function gauge:
The “Low Oil Pressure” and caution alarm
icon are displayed on screen, and the buzzer
sounds.
The “Low Oil Pressure” indication clears when
any of the button is pressed in the gauge. How-
ever, the caution alarm icon is displayed until
eliminating the cause.
If equipped with monitor-tachometer:
The red OIL lamp will light and a buzzer will
begin a series of beep.
NOTICE
Operating the engine with the Oil Pressure
Caution System activated can result in severe
engine damage.
If the Oil Pressure Caution System activates,
stop the engine as soon as possible and add
engine oil, if necessary, or otherwise correct
the problem.
