Arctic Cat ZR 900 Series 2006 Operator's Manual page 13

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.
Once the Low Oil Warning Light
illuminates during operation of the
snowmobile, the operator must peri-
odically monitor the level of oil in
the reservoir and must fill the reser-
voir the next time gasoline is added
to the gas tank. The "alert level" of
t h e L o w O i l Wa r n i n g L i g h t i s
approximately equal to 1 tankful of
gasoline under normal operating
conditions.
High Beam
On the Firecat/Sabercat/ ZR 900
models, the headlight HIGH/LOW
beam switch is incorporated into the
brake lever. Pushing the lever for-
ward will activate the switch. When
on HIGH beam, the high beam indi-
cator light will be illuminated.
Diagnostic Codes/Check
Engine/High Temperature
Warning Light (Carbureted
Models)
On the Firecat 500 if exhaust pipe
temperature is excessively high, the
check engine light will flash a warn-
ing (alert). Immediately shut off the
engine and determine the nature of
the problem (see Exhaust Controlled
Timing (ECT) System in this man-
ual).
The High Temperature Warning
Light is designed to alert the snow-
mobile operator when the tempera-
ture of the engine coolant exceeds a
safe operating temperature.
12
If the coolant temperature is at or
above 80° C (176° F), the high tem-
perature warning light will flash a
warning (alert). If the coolant tem-
perature is at or above 93° C (200°
F), the high temperature warning
light will cease flashing and will
remain constantly illuminated.

NOTE: At this point, the opera-
tor should take precautionary
measures such as changing to
loose snow terrain and/or check-
ing coolant level.
! CAUTION
If unable to either determine or
remedy the problem, take the
snowmobile to an authorized
Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer
for service.
Additional codes are flashed by the
check engine light and high temper-
ature warning light. Refer to the fol-
lowing chart for diagnostic code
sequences.
