PRECAUTIONS OF USE, OPERATING ADVICE
General point
- In this vessel, do not install an engine with a greater power and weight than that
recommended, this will create a danger for its stability.
- Fuel which is stored elsewhere than in the fuel-tanks (portable tanks, jerrycans, etc...) must
be kept in a ventilated space.
- Make sure that the engine compartment is clean and dry.
- Avoid contact between inflammable substances and the hot parts of the engine.
- On certain models there is a fitted extinguisher system which enables a fire in the engine
compartment to be put out. Make sure you know where the activating mechanism is and
how it works (Refer to chapter 2).
Filling
Fill the fuel tank using the filler. In order to protect the deck from possible fuel splash, wet the
area around the filler with sea water before you remove the filler cap. In case of splashing rinse
the deck thoroughly (deck filler closed).
The level of fuel is transmitted to the indicator on the wheelhouse thanks to the dipstick interior.
