ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM 3-25
OVERHEAT CAUTION SYSTEM
CONDITION 1 (Maximum temperature)
Immediate activation of system when :
• Cylinder temperature reaches 121°C.
• Exhaust manifold temperature reaches 114°C.
CONDITION 2 (Temp. rise vs Time)
Immediate activation of system when :
• The average temperature difference during three consecutive 10 seconds measurement periods of the
cylinder temperature sensor at engine speeds of 500 r/min. or higher exceeds the limits as shown below.
• The average temperature difference during three consecutive 10 seconds measurement periods of the
exhaust manifold temperature sensor at engine speeds of 500 r/min. or higher exceeds the limits as shown
below.
Temperature range Temperature difference

RESET :
Close throttle to reduce engine speed below approx. 3000 r/min.
When cylinder temperature drops below the limits as shown below, the system resets. However, the system
may be activated again unless the cause for overheat (such as insufficient water) is removed.
