Operating Hour Notification System - TOHATSU BFT 200D Owner's Manual

Operating Hour Notification
System
This outboard motor engine counts
the number of operating hours since
the last periodic maintenance. When
the next periodic maintenance is due,
the engine notifies the NMEA2000
network, and a maintenance
indication is displayed on an
NMEA2000-compatible device.
After periodic maintenance is
performed, reset the hour counter by:
DBW type:
1. Turn ON the power switch or
engine switch. (The buzzer will
sound twice.)
• Wait at least 1 second.
2. With the control lever of the
outboard motor, shift to the "F"
(forward) or "R" (reverse) gear.
3. Turn OFF the power switch or
engine switch.
4. Turn ON the power switch or
engine switch. (The buzzer will
sound twice.)
5. Insert and remove the emergency
stop switch clip five times within
20 seconds.
• When reset, the buzzer will sound
once.
Mechanical wire type:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Set the gearshift at F or R.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
The buzzer will sound once.
4. Insert and remove the emergency
stop switch clip five times within
20 seconds.
The buzzer will sound once when
the hour counter is reset.
CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Periodic maintenance is required
when either the operating hours or the
time since last maintenance reaches
the prescribed limit. Therefore,
periodic maintenance may be
required based on the number of
months since the last maintenance
before the alert based on engine
operating hours displays (see
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE on
page 85).
Reset the hour counter whenever
maintenance is performed, whether
based on the time interval or the
number of operating hours.
