    You sure it's six beeps. I think 4 beeps every 2 minutes is the oil level low alarm and I believe it also can be water in the system. I know on my Opti the float in the oil reservoir tank was not floating properly so the system thought it was always low oil oil. Replaced the oil reservoir and no problem since. Mechanic said was a pretty common problem with the Opti's.
