Oil Pressure Readout-Display Panel
The oil pressure display indicates the pressure of the
oil inside the engine lubrication system. A drop in oil
pressure may be an indication of a low oil situation or a
leak. Operation of the engines with low oil pressure could
lead to engine damage. Should a low oil pressure situation
develop shut down the engine immediately and investigate
the problem. Refer to the Volvo engine operation manual
for more information or contact your closest Regal yacht
dealer.
Temperature Readout-Display Panel
The temperature display monitors the cooling system of
the engine. A sudden increase in the temperature could be a
sign that the engine cooling system is malfunctioning. Shut
down the engine immediately and investigate the problem.
Consult your engine manual for allowable limits.
Speed Readout-Display Panel
The speed display indicates kilometers per hour. Remember
that there is a slight amount of error in speed readings.

The voltage display indicates the battery condition as well
as the alternator performance. Normal voltage is between

High Water Alarm
Using a bilge float sensor this

the dash alarm. This may indicate
that a large amount of water has
entered the hull or there is a leak in
the engine water circulation system
and the bilge pump cannot evacuate water overboard fast
enough or has failed to operate. Periodically, activate the
bilge pump manually to check operation.
