Several alarm conditions may also be displayed in the LCD display when needed:

1Low fuel

Alarm messages will be displayed on the tachometer LCD display. Messages will also include a flashing red light. All messages will be displayed until either the problem is corrected or the operator manually cancels the warning message.

Canceling system alarms

To manually cancel system warning messages, simultaneously press both the “Up” and “Down” buttons on the tachometer.

This will disable the warning message temporarily. If the problem is not corrected in 1 minute (5 minutes for low fuel), the warning will be displayed again. The operator can cancel as often as desired.

Engine Hour meter

Displays the number of hours that the engine has been operated. The display will show “XXXX.XHr”.

There are no adjustments for this function.

The LCD screen displays the data for the remainder of the functions. If there are no alarm conditions, “Instantaneous Fuel Consumption” is displayed on start-up. A short press of the “Mode” button advances the display through the five normally available functions.

There are four functions displayed by the Fuel Management system in normal mode.

Instantaneous Fuel Consumption Displays the actual amount of fuel being consumed per hour under the current operating conditions. Default display will show “G/H XX.X.”

Pressing the “Mode” button for more than one second will allow selecting the units of measure.

Default display will show “G/H XX.X.”

A short press of the “Mode” button advances the display through the options.

“Total Fuel Consumed” is provided to allow monitoring of fuel usage over a longer period of time, like a month or the season. In order to prevent accidental reset, this function must be accessed only using a special “power on mode.”
