Honda HD-4 Gauge Setup
Fuel Gauge Management
The default fuel screen for Honda HD-4 gauge is
preprogrammed to use a Fuel Data Manager, which provides
key features (Fuel Used: Trip, Seasonal, Since last fill (virtual
tank) and Fuel Range) for the detail-oriented boater.
If a Fuel Data Manager is not installed, the default gauge will
display an empty fuel level and no data for Fuel Used.
However, a screen can be created showing fuel level (using
fluid level sensor) at actual tank and fuel consumption rate.
Follow the PROCEDURE beginning on page 2 to create a
page that displays Fuel Rate and Fuel Level.
If you are not comfortable resetting the gauge following the
information below, contact an authorized Honda Marine
dealer for assistance. Visit
near you, or call us at 770-497-6400, option 6.
