Information about Operating Instructions
These Operating Instructions provide important information on dealing with engines. Prerequisite for safe
operation is the compliance with all safety and handling instructions.
Furthermore, the local accident prevention regulations valid for the engine's area of application and the
general safety regulations must be observed.
Timely and proper maintenance and care of the engines according to the set maintenance intervals ensure
and maintain the operational safety and the reliable application of these engines.
Use only genuine MAN spare parts and accessories or those approved by MAN.
Only MAN approved genuine spare parts have been tested by us and thus suitable for use in our engines.
A particular concern of MAN is to improve environmental protection. This begins with the development and
design of our engines. We make sure that no environmentally hazardous materials are used and, for ex
ample, that the emissions fulfil the highest requirements.
Economical operation helps to conserve our resources and our environment.
