Engine Break-In; Speedometer/Tachometer - Arctic Cat Crossfire 700 EFI (EB) 2006 Operator's Manual

ENGINE BREAK-IN

The Arctic Cat engine (when new or
rebuilt) requires a short break-in
period before the engine is subjected
to heavy load conditions. Arctic Cat
requires that the first tankful of fuel
be premixed at a 100:1 ratio.
During the break in period, a maxi-
m u m o f 1 / 2 t h r o t t l e i s r e c o m -
mended; however, brief full throttle
accelerations and variations in driv-
ing speeds contribute to good engine
break in. After one (1) tankful of
gas/oil mixture has been used, the
snowmobile may be taken to an
authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile
dealer for a checkup. This checkup
is at the discretion and the expense
of the snowmobile owner.
! CAUTION
DO NOT exceed the one (1) tank-
ful limitation of a 100:1 gas/oil
break in mixture. Continuous
use of a gas/oil mixture, unless
co ns i st en tly o pe ra ti ng th is
snowmobile in extremely cold
c o n d i t i o n s ( - 2 6 ° C / - 1 5 ° F o r
colder), could cause spark plug
fouling and excessive carbon
buildup. A 100:1 gas/oil mixture
must be used in conjunction
with the oil injection system to
ensure adequate engine lubrica-
tion in extremely cold condi-
tions.

SPEEDOMETER/TACHOMETER

Some models are equipped with a
combination speedometer/tachome-
ter. Also incorporated into the
speedometer/tachometer are a digi-
tal readout screen and indicator
lights (battery, low oil, high beam,
check engine, and high tempera-
ture).

NOTE: The functions of the dig-
ital readout and indicator lights
will vary from model to model.
Top Button
By pushing the top button once
(lower right-hand side of the speed-
ometer/tachometer), the RPM and
MPH will be displayed (one on the
readout screen and one with the nee-
dle). By pushing the button once
again, the functions will be reversed.
By pushing the top button (with
speed being displayed) for more
than two seconds, the display will
show between standard mph or met-
ric kph. Release the button when
desired display appears.
By pushing and holding the top but-
ton, maximum RPM will be dis-
played on the readout screen. The
maximum RPM readout will reset
when the engine is shut off.
Bottom Button
By pushing the bottom button once,
the readout screen will display hour-
meter or trip-meter/odometer; by
pushing the button once again, the
two functions will be reversed. The
hour-meter readout will not reset.
Low Oil Warning Light
The Low Oil Warning Light is
designed to alert the snowmobile
operator when the oil in the oil-
injection reservoir gets below a pre-
scribed level; however, it is highly
recommended that a visual verifica-
tion of the oil level in the reservoir
be done prior to operating the snow-
mobile.
