Instrumentation
Horn - Electric
The horn is used to signal, warn or alert other boats or persons on shore. The horn switch is located on the
switch panel. The horn device is located in close proximity to the starboard bow light. Depress the horn switch to
the up or forward position to activate the horn, then release the horn switch to deactivate the horn. Using different
sequences of horn blasts indicates different and sometimes dangerous situations to you or someone around you.
See the Safety Section in this manual for more information. Avoid any horn use without an appropriate purpose.
Additional information regarding audible warning signals should be covered in a safe boating course.
Compass
The compass is located on the dash on top of the console. To ensure that
the compass light is working properly, press the Nav. Lights switch in the
forward position to turn on the red LED light inside the compass. When
finished, turn the Nav. Lights switch back to the middle position.
Please refer to the owner's manual provided by the manufacturer of the
compass for operational procedures and for information related to the care
and maintenance of their product. When in doubt, always defer to the
compass manufacturer's instructions and/or recommendations.
Full Instrumentation / Gauges (Digital)
All gauges are installed on the console but the configuration and specific location of your gauges will vary
depending upon the selection of the various optional engine packages. If your engine package includes analog
gauges (i.e., Faria), the gauges will light up when the navigation lights are on. If your engine package includes
digital gauges provided by the engine manufacturer (i.e., Mercury SmartCraft, Honda, etc.), the gauges will light
up only when the engine is on.
Note: For boats rigged with analog gauges, the gauge configuration may include individual
gauges for the temperature, trim, volts and fuel gauges or a multifunction gauge that includes
multiple functions. For boats rigged with digital gauges, the temperature, trim, volts and fuel
gauges are incorporated into the tachometer gauge.
Tachometer - To ensure the tachometer (tach) is working properly, simply turn the ignition key on and start the
engine. While the engine is idling, the tach should be reading in the proper RPM range recommended for the
engine. Your engine manual will indicate the appropriate RPM range. When you are running at wide-open
throttle, the tach should read near the top end of the recommended RPM range.
If the RPM gauge is reading correctly and the engine throttle settings are correct, the tachometer is operating
properly. If the tachometer is not reading correctly, refer to the manual provided by the manufacturer of the gauge
(included in your owner's package).
Speedometer - To ensure that the speedometer (Speedo) is working properly, get the boat on a planing speed
and check to see if the gauge is reading at the approximate running speed at which the boat is traveling.
Note: The speed-reading on the Speedo may vary a few mph from the actual speed that the boat
is traveling. Either a GPS or a radar gun can check the running speed.
