Diagnostic System; Oil Change Reminder System; System Activation; Cancellation - Suzuki DF70A Owner's Manual

DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM

If abnormal conditions exist in any sensor sig-
nal being sent to the control unit, the self-diag-
nostic system warns of the abnormal condition.
If this system activates, the red CHECK
ENGINE lamp will flash and a buzzer will
sound.
Also incorporated is a fail-safe provision that
allows the operation at a restricted speed even
under such a failure condition.
NOTE:
• The CHECK ENGINE lamp will light briefly
when the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position.
• The failed system can be identified by the
mode of the red CHECK ENGINE lamp flash-
ing and buzzer sounding.
This diagnostic code is designed to appear
while the ignition key is turned on.
• The buzzer sound with diagnostic system
activating will be canceled by pushing the
ignition key in.
NOTICE
If the diagnostic system activates while
you are operating your outboard motor,
there is an abnormal condition in one of
the sensor signals of the control system.
Consult your authorized Suzuki marine
dealer for repair of the control system.
