Gauges

Gauge information is displayed in the Nautique LINC System.
Refer to the separate Nautique LINC Manual to learn how to access
the gauge displays.
• Volts - Indicates the condition of the engine's cranking battery
in volts DC. With the ignition switch on and the engine not
running, a reading above 12.5 volts indicates a fully charged
battery. With the engine running at idle, the gauge should
read between 12.5 and 13 volts. With the engine running at
cruising speeds and above, it should show 13 to 14.5 volts.
Have your Nautique dealer check the charging system if the
voltmeter reads outside these normal ranges.
• Temp - Indicates the engine coolant temperature. Refer to
the engine manual for normal operating temperature. After
starting the engine, check your temperature gauge for
abnormally high readings. If the reading is outside the
manufacturer's operating range, immediately turn off the
engine. An abnormally high temperature indicates a cooling
system problem. Consult your Nautique dealer when
experiencing a high engine temperature reading.
• Fuel - Indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.
The accuracy of the fuel guage may vary as the attitude of
the boat changes; the reading is only an approximation. As a
general guideline, always use the "one-third" rule. Use one
third of the fuel to reach your destination, one third to
return and one third as reserve fuel.
• Oil Pressure - Measures the pressure of the engine's
lubricating oil. Refer to the engine manual for normal
operating pressure. Many serious engine problems are
reflected on oil pressure gauge readings. If the pressure is
lower than the manufacturer's specification, immediately
turn off the engine. Contact your Nautique dealer to correct
the problem before operating the engine.
