2.2 HOURMETER
The Hourmeter tracks hours of operation for scheduled maintenance
(Figure 5):
There will be a "CHG OIL" message every 100 hours. The message
will flash one hour before and one hour after each 100 hour
interval, providing a two hour window to perform service.
This message will actually begin flashing at 99 hours and disable
itself at 101 hours again, providing a two hour window to perform
the service.
Every 200 hours the "SVC" icon on the lower left hand corner of
the display will flash. The message will flash one hour before and
one hour after each 200 hour interval providing a two hour window
to perform service.
When the hour meter is in the Flash Alert mode, the maintenance
message will always alternate with elapsed time in hours and
tenths. The hours will flash four times, then alternate with the
maintenance message four times until the meter resets itself.
• 100 hours - CHG OIL — Oil Change Interval (Every 100 hrs)
The hour glass graphic will flash on and off when the engine
is running. This signifies that the meter is tracking hours of
operation.
