Operator`s manual
NOTE: An alarm buzzer is supplied with every Admiral Panel.  The installer is responsible for 
electrically connecting 
the 
buzzer 
to 
the four-pin connection 
on 
the engine's electrical har-
ness.  The 
installer is also responsible for installing the buzzer in a 
dry 
location so that it will 
be 
audible 
to 
the operator should it sound while the engine is running. The buzzer will sound 
when 
the 
ignition key is turned ON and should silence when the engine has started and when 
the engine's oil pressure rises above 15 psi. 
*5. Water Temperature Gauge:  This gauge is graduated in degrees Fahrenheit and is 
illuminated while the 
Key 
Switch is turned ON.  The engine's normal operating temperature is 170 - 190° F 
(77 
- 88°C). 
*6. Oil Pressure Gauge:  This gauge is graduated in pounds per square inch (PSI) and is illuminated while 
the Key 
Switch is turned ON.  The engine's normal operating oil pressure ranges between 
30 
- 60 
PSI. 
*NOTE: When the engine is manually shut down, and the engine's Key Switch is turned OFF, 
the water temperature gauge will continue 
to 
register the last temperature reading indicated 
by 
the gauge before electrical power was turned OFF. The temperature gauge will once again 
register the engine's true temperature once 
electrical power is restored 
to 
the gauge. The oil 
pressure gauge will 
fall 
to 
zero when the engine is manually shut down.
