Engine overheat warning system

The model has an overheat warning device. If the engine starts to overheat, the warning light, indicator and “W.TEMP” on the meter begin to blink and the buzzer sounds intermittently. If this happens, reduce the engine speed and return to beach at low speed. If there is no water discharge at the cooling water pilot outlet while the engine is running, check the jet intake and impeller for clogging.

WARNING

Before attempting to remove weeds or debris from the intake grate or impeller, shut the engine off and remove the clip from the engine shut-off switch. Severe injury or death could result from coming in contact with the rotating parts of the jet pump.

CAUTION:

This model is equipped with a catalytic converter.

●Return to shore at low speed if the overheat warning indicator and buzzer are on, and the display shows “W.TEMP.” If you ignore these signals, the engine will stop running and can- not be restarted until the exhaust sys- tem cools.

●Have your watercraft inspected and serviced by a Yamaha dealer if the engine stopped due to overheating.
