2017 OWNERS MANUAL / 82
SPEEDOMETER
The speedometer indicates the forward
speed of the boat in miles per hour (unless
the boat is equipped with a speedometer
that measures kilometers per hour, which is
available in the optional European package.)
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates the engine speed
in crankshaft revolutions per minute (RPM).
See the Engine section of this Owner’s
Manual for important information regarding
proper operating RPM levels,
particularly during a boat break-in period.
3IN1 GAUGE: FUEL GAUGE
Upper Half of Gauge
Fuel gauge readings are approximate. This
gauge is activated with the ignition switch.
The rocking motion of the boat during normal
operation will cause the fuel gauge to fluctu-
ate. For a more accurate reading, make sure
that the boat is level and there is little or no
motion present.
A “low fuel” notice will come up on the video screen as a warning to
return to shore and refuel. MasterCraft recommends that operators
do not run the boat below a quarter of a tank, except as necessary
to return to shore, and not until the boat has been operated enough
times to develop an understanding of how the fuel gauge readings
relate to the visual inspection of fuel remaining in the tank. Extend-
ing fuel usage beyond the known capability of the boat may cause
the boat to run out of fuel and may leave you stranded o-shore.
Although it may be possible to see fuel in the bottom of the fuel
tank, you still may not be able to operate the boat. The fuel pick-up
system was designed to avoid introducing the small amount of
water and debris that unavoidably accumulate in the bottom of the
tank. Rather than relying on visual inspection, you should pay atten-
tion to the fuel gauge.
X AND XT SERIES
ENGINE GAUGES
This section discusses the performance controls. Information is provided via traditional gauges; however,
it (as well as some convenience and support data described elsewhere in this Owner’s Manual) is provided
through a video screen located on the lower right (starboard) side of the instrument panel. Descriptions of
the functionality of the video screen immediately follows.
MasterCraft strongly encourages you to review ALL instrumentation with your authorized MasterCraft
dealer prior to operating the boat for the first time, and at any time during ownership you are uncertain as to
proper and applicable functionality.
