Fuel Tank
These settings are for illustrative purposes only;
they are not recommended settings for an actual
system! Proper settings are boat specific. Check
with your dealer for correct settings.
If your boat is equipped with a fuel level sensor, it will
be possible to monitor fuel related data; however, you
must first calibrate the fuel tank settings. There are two
possible calibration methods: Multipoint Calibr. (more
precise), Full Tank Calibr. (approximate).
For twin installations: There is one sender con-
nected to port engine or one sender connected to
each engine. Fuel tank calibrations need to be per-
formed for each fuel level sender. Check both dis-
plays for fuel tank calibrations.
If the Fuel Tank menu selection does not appear in
the Settings menu, you will need to take your boat
to an authorized Volvo Penta dealer. The dealer
must perform fuel tank capacity and fuel tank
empty calibrations.
In the Settings menu, turn the SELECTION WHEEL to
select Fuel Tank. Press the SELECTION WHEEL to
enter Fuel Tank settings.
Fuel Multipoint Calibration
51458
When the more precise Multipoint Calibr. is selected,
the fuel level sender is calibrated in five equally divided
steps; 20% full (pos 1), 40% full (pos 2), 60% full
(pos 3), 80% full (pos 4) and 100% full (pos 5).
To perform a successful multipoint calibration, we
recommend that the fuel tank be empty. If it is not
possible to calibrate on an empty tank, it must be
LESS than 20% full. If the calibration skips POS 1
and goes directly to another position, the fuel tank
contains too much fuel and the calibration will not
be possible.
1. Turn the SELECTION WHEEL to highlight Mul-
tipoint Calibr. and press to enter.
2. Fill fuel tank with displayed volume (POS 1) and
confirm by pushing the SELECTION WHEEL.
3. Add fuel (do not reset the pump) up to displayed
volume for each POS (and confirm in between)
until the tank is filled.
