02 (setting fuel tank sensor)
The fuel tank sensor type that is connected
to this meter can be selected.
1. Turn the engine off and the engine start
switch to ON.
2. [MODE] (4 seconds): To activate the
custom mode.
3. [MODE] (1 second): To switch between

03 (setting correction value)
The displayed fuel flow value can be calibrated within –7 to +7 percent. The difference in
the fuel consumption display and the actual
fuel consumption is calibrated.
Checking the calibration value:
1. Operate the outboard motor on a full tank
of fuel.
2. After operating the outboard motor, fill
the fuel tank. Compare the amount of fuel
filled into the fuel tank with the fuel consumed shown on the fuel consumption
display and set the calibration value to
the difference if necessary.
Changing the calibration value:
1. Turn the engine off and the engine start
switch to ON.
2. [MODE] (4 seconds): To activate the
custom mode.
3. [MODE] (1 second) (2 times): To switch
between the setting function numbers
and to switch to the change settings display.
4. [MODE]: To switch between the calibration values.
5. [SET] (1 second): To change the fuel
tank sensor type and return to the normal
display.

Setting conditions
Meters may not function properly under the
following conditions:
1. When the meter is installed close to noise
sources such as generator, radio, or antenna wire. Make sure to keep a distance
of at least 30 cm (11.8 in) between the
meter and the noise source.
2. When the ambient temperature is high.
Please use the meter at temperature of
80 °C (176 °F) or lower.
3. When an incompatible aftermarket de-
vice is connected. Connect a device that
meets the setting requirements (such as
NMEA0183 compatible GPS).
Initial settings
Before operating the meter, be sure to
change the default settings as described below. For the setting procedures, see the corresponding setting procedure for each
meter.
