Alarm Mode

The “Alarm” screen appears only if
an alarm condition exists. The alarm
condition may be a warning sent from
the engine ECU or a “local” alarm such
as “Low Fuel”. When an alarm condition
occurs, the “Alarm Screen” will appear
and the screens described below will be
displayed.

The descriptions below also explain
how to temporarily override the alarm
screen and audible / visual warnings and
return to “Normal” mode. In all cases,
the alarm will re-occur after a period of
time to ensure that the user remembers
the alarm condition. Once an alarm
condition has been corrected, the alarm
screen, horn, and warning lights will no
longer be displayed.
