extinguisher. Fire extinguishers are
normally classified according to fire
type. Be familiar with the type of fire
extinguishers you have on board.
Your boat has been equipped with
an Automatic Fire Extinguisher
. In
the event of a fire in your engine
compartment,
this
unit
will
automatically discharge. Please read
