Warning System
WARNING HORN SIGNALS
When the key switch is turned to the "ON" position, the horn will
turn on for a moment as a test to indicate the horn is working.
There are two types of warning horns to alert the operator of an
active problem within the engine’s operating system.
1.
Continuous six second beep: Indicates a critical engine
condition. Depending on the condition, the Engine Guardian
system may engage and protect the engine by limiting it’s
power. You should return to port immediately and contact
your servicing dealer.
2.
Intermittent short beeps for six seconds: Indicates a
noncritical engine condition. This condition does not require
immediate attention. You may continue using your boat,
however, depending on the nature of the problem, the
engine’s power may be limited by the Engine Guardian
system (see Engine Guardian System following) to protect
the engine. You should contact your servicing dealer at your
earliest convenience.
It is important to note that in either of the above scenarios, the
horn will only sound one time. If you key the engine off and
restart it, the horn will sound again, one time, if the fault is still
present. For visual display of the specific engine functions and
additional engine data, refer to SmartCraft Product information,
following.
A few of the noncritical conditions indicated by the intermittent
short beeps for six seconds can be corrected by the operator.
These operator correctable conditions are as follows:
• Water in the engine mounted fuel filter. Refer to
Maintenance – Water Separating Fuel Filter.
• Cooling system (water pressure or engine temperature)
problem. Stop the engine and check the water intake holes
in the lower unit for obstruction.
•
Low engine oil level. Refer to Fuel and Oil – Checking and
Adding Engine Oil.
