MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light)
The equipment has a MIL to indicate malfunction
of the EFI system.
When the ECU of the engine detects the EFI
system trouble, MIL illuminates.
If the MIL illuminates, consult an authorized
Kawasaki engine dealer or equally qualified service
facility.
Reduced Power Mode
(Engine speed reduced to low idle)
When the ECU detects conditions of the engine
