I recently experienced an alarm code from my 2020 Suzuki DF200atx2 outboard motor. It is connected to a Suzuki smg4 multi function display (MFD). At the time it happened I didn't see any caution message appear on the MFD but could have missed it if it appears and then goes away...Anyway, I went back and looked at the MFD after my trip and saw no codes appear in the code screen. see photo. I then saw a reference to Suzuki Mobil and realised that was an ap, I downloaded the ap from apple store and went into the log data and processed the log data and received the three IRQ screens which the ap/camera on my iphone read and delivered a warning code readout showing hours since oil change: 40 Hr. I assume that means it needs an oil change???
So my questions are
1. the service interval for oil change says 80 hrs, yet this shows operation since oil change 40hrs? any idea why it alarmed at 40hrs and not 80hrs?
2. if it did come on early, is this a setting and was it incorrectly set for 40 hrs?
3. maybe that's one of the "initial" settings described in the manual that the dealer originally sets when installing?
4. do I need to clear this code somehow so when I go back out it won't alarm again?
5. How do I reset so that when the next oil change interval goes by it comes on again? or does it automatically reset somehow when I change the oil?
