NOTE:
On remote control model:
The caution buzzer sounds when ignition switch
is turned ON. Then it stops sounding when
engine starts and the oil pressure switch turns
OFF by reaching engine oil pressure at 29.4
kPa (0.30 kg/cm
2
, 4 psi).
OVER-REVOLUTION CAUTION SYSTEM
This system is activated when engine speed
exceeds the maximum recommended speed for
more than 10 seconds.
If this system activates, engine speed will
automatically be reduced to approximately
3000 r/min. with the caution 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.
NOTICE
If the Over-Revolution Caution System
activates at recommended maximum
throttle and you are sure that the propel-
ler pitch is sufficient and there are no fac-
tors like "over-trimming" 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 activates for no apparent reason.
OIL PRESSURE CAUTION SYSTEM
This system operates when the engine lubricat-
ing oil pressure drops below the correct pres-
sure.
If this system activates, the caution lamp will
light. On the remote control model, the buzzer
in the remote control box will simultaneously
begin a series of beeps. When this system is
activated at 2000 r/min. or higher, engine speed
will automatically be reduced to approximately
2000 r/min.
If you continue to run, the engine will automati-
cally stop 3 minutes after beginning of the
above CAUTION system activation.
NOTE:
In case that the engine is automatically stopped
due to the CAUTION system, the engine can be
started again.
However the CAUTION system will repeatedly
activate until eliminating the cause.
If this system activates when operating, stop
the engine immediately, if wind and water con-
ditions make it safe to do so.
WARNING
If you attempt to remove or reinstall the
motor cover while the engine is running,
you may be injured.
To check the oil level, stop the engine and
then remove the motor cover.
Check the oil level and add oil if necessary. If
the oil level is correct, consult your authorized
Suzuki Marine Dealer.
NOTICE
Your engine may become severely dam-
aged If you rely on the Oil Pressure Cau-
tion System to indicate the need to add
engine oil.
Check the engine oil level periodically
and add oil as necessary.
NOTICE
Operating the engine with the Oil Pres-
sure Caution System activated can result
in severe engine damage.
If the Oil Pressure Caution System acti-
vates, stop the engine as soon as possi-
ble and add engine oil, if necessary, or
otherwise correct the problem.
