Accidental starting
Accidental starting can cause se-
rious injury and even death!
Disconnect the battery before wor-
king on the engine. Ensure no one
is alongside the engine or working
on before starting it. A rotating
propeller can cause serious injury
or death. Ensure all the protection
mechanisms are in place before
starting the engine.
Chemical products
The different fluids used to run the
engine are a health hazard. Ca-
refully read the instructions on the
packaging of these products and
always check that the ventilation in
the hold space is adequate.
Follow environmental regulations
concerning the disposal of oil, fuel,
coolant, filters and batteries. Do
not put your hands over pipes when
looking for possible leaks.
Water ingress
The engine should be protected
against from water ingress by any
means. Water ingress leads to
complete engine failure. This is not
cover under any warranty terms.
Water can enter the engine after
filling the exhaust system.
Correct installation of the engine on
your boat is of the greatest impor-
tance for safe navigation and pro-
tection of the environment. The first
protection against water ingress is
a correct installation of the engine.
A correct use of the engine is also
important to protect the engine
against water ingress. The ope-
rator/owner is responsible for the
correct operation of the engine and
for the implementation of all neces-
sary means to protect the engine
against water intrusion.
After a vessel capsizing, or if the
engine has been filled with water,
do not start the engine, except in
extreme emergencies, and contact
an authorized Nanni dealer.
