Controls and Indicators
•Temp - Indicates the engine coolant temperature. Refer to the engine manual for normal operating temperature. After starting the engine, check your temperature gauge for abnormally high readings. If the reading is outside the manufacturer’s operating range, immediately turn OFF the engine. An abnormally high temperature indicates a cooling system problem. Consult your Nautique dealer when experiencing a high engine temperature reading.
•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.
Speedometer Calibration
The speedometer calibration control knob is located on the under side of the deck beneath the dash pod above the driver’s right knee. Drive the boat at a known speed using a GPS or measured course and adjust the knob until the speedometer is reading correctly. Turning the knob one direction will raise the needle reading while turning it in the other direction will lower the reading.
