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