Hour Meter
The hour meter records the number of hours the
engine has operated. It operates when the engine

Hours are displayed in Engine-Off screen or in the
Engine Hour Counter menu.
Refer to the Software Guide for more information.

TART
UN
Note:
The LCD indicators appear when each control
meets the "safe to start" mode (e.g., the indicator
turns on when you are in the seat).
Note:
The engine ECU controls the glow plugs during
cold starts. If the coolant temperature is too low, the
glow symbol displays on the monitor and the starter
does not crank when you turn the engine to the S
position. The glow plugs activate in the O
position. Once the glow has been on long enough
for the coolant temperature, the glow symbol on the
monitor disappears and the engine cranks when
turned to the S
position.

you disengage the PTO switch. Engaging and
disengaging the PTO switch changes the engine
throttle between M
