CAUTION!

 

Empty all the content of the 
extinguisher onto the fire.

 

CAUTION!

 

Switch off the current by the main 
switch before disconnecting the battery 
cables. Do not mix up the + (plus)

 

and  - (minus) cables.

 

DANGER!

 

A rotating propeller is a life-threatening 
device to anyone in the water. Use the 
emergency switch or stop the engine 
when a swimmer or a water skier gets 
on board.

 

 

Dry powder extinguisher

 

The boat is equipped with a dry powder 
extinguisher rated 

13A 70 BC

. The total effect of 

the boat’s extinguishers must be at least 8A 
68B. The extinguisher must be checked annually 
at an authorized service site. Please get 
acquainted with the instructions of the 
extinguisher before your first trip, and also make 
sure the crew knows where the extinguisher is 
and how it works. 

 

 

Battery and electrical system

 

The battery must be fully charged at all times to 
function properly. Make sure it does not get 
damaged e.g. in cold weather. Check the 
voltage of the battery with a voltmeter (available 
e.g. at service stations) and if necessary, charge 
it with a battery charger equipped with an 
automatic circuit breaker, according to the 
instructions for the charger. Keep the battery 
poles clean - clean them as needed, and protect 
them with anti-corrosion grease.

 

 

 

 

Main current switch

 

The main current switch must be turned on 
before starting the engine. 

 

 

Navigation lights 

 

The boat is equipped with three (3) navigation 
lights: two side lights, green and red, and a light 
mast showing light all around. These lights must 
be used when travelling in the dark. The lights 
are switched on from the switch panel.

 

 

Bilge pump 

 

The boat is equipped with an automatic bilge 
pump.

 

The bilge pump is activated when the rising 
level of bilge water reaches the float switch. 

Under such circumstances, a red light for bilge 
water is lit in the switch panel of the steering 
console. 

 

Check that the pump is in working condition 
manually by lifting the float switch a few times 
during the boating season.

 

 

Reboarding ladder

 

The ladder is either foldable or telescopic.

 

 

Switches 

 

The switches for the controls are on the steering 
panel.

 

CAUTION!

 

Never turn off the current by the 
main switch while the engine is 
running. The engine and the 
generator might be damaged. The 
other circuit breakers are situated in 
the instrument panel, and are 
protected with automatic fuses.
