OVERHEAT AND ENGINE
SPEED IS LIMITED

TAKING CARE OF UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS

(RED)

COOLING SYSTEM INDICATOR

(R type)

(H type)

(all types)

Engine overheating may be the result
of restricted water intake screens, or
there may be a problem with the
cooling system thermostat or water
pump.

If the engine is stopped after running
at full throttle, and then restarted
soon afterward, that could activate
the engine protection system
momentarily.

If overheating activates the engine
protection system, idle the engine in
neutral, and check the cooling system
indicator.

If the engine overheats, the engine
speed will be reduced to 1,800 rpm.
If the condition persists for another
20 seconds, the engine will shut off.

If you are at cruising speed when the
overheat protection system is
activated, the engine speed will
decrease automatically. When normal
engine temperature is restored, the
engine speed will gradually rise to
normal engine speed.

If the engine overheats, the red
indicator will come on and the buzzer
will sound a continuous tone as the
engine speed is reduced to 1,800 rpm.
If the condition persists for another
20 seconds, the engine will shut off.
