Controls and Indicators
Oil Pressure - Measures the pressure of the engine’s
lubricating oil. Refer to the engine manual for normal
operating pressure. Many serious engine problems are
reflected on oil pressure gauge readings. If the pressure is
lower than the manufacturer’s specification, immediately
turn off the engine. Contact your Nautique dealer to correct
the problem before operating the engine.
Tachometer/Hour Meter - Registers engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM). Use the tachometer to keep
the engine within the proper operating range. Consult the
engine manual for the proper RPM operating range of your
engine. The hour meter LCD display registers accumulated
engine operating time. Time will not be logged unless the
ignition switch is on and the engine is running. Use the hour
meter to keep accurate logs for scheduled maintenance.
Speedometer - Your Nautique is equipped with a precision
speedometer by Faria. This gauge registers forward speed in
miles per hour (optional kilometers per hour). The
speedometer is equipped with an adjustment knob to
calibrate speedometer accuracy. You can also use this gauge
to monitor fuel consumption and propeller performance.
Check Engine Light - This light will turn on when the
ignition is turned (engine not cranking); it will turn on for a
few seconds, then turn off. The check engine light will come
on for all other engine-related problems. This light will be
off when the engine is running. Refer to the engine manual
for additional information.
Service Soon Light (Catanium Engine Only) - This light will
turn on and stay on until either the engine is started or the
ignition is switched off. The service soon light will come on if
there is a problem with the catalyst system. This light will be
off when the engine is running.
