Warranty
Your new Volvo Penta marine engine is covered by a
limited warranty, subject to the conditions compiled in
the Warranty Information. Note that AB Volvo Penta’s
liability is limited to the specification in the Warranty
Information (included CD) and Emission Control
System Warranty Statement.
Read the information carefully, as soon as possible
after delivery. It includes important information about
service and maintenance; the owner is responsible for
being familiar with, checking and implementing these.
Otherwise AB Volvo Penta may deny its warranty
obligations in part or in full.
NOTICE!
Make sure that a Commissioning has been
carried out on your Volvo Penta engine. This should be
done together with your Volvo Penta dealer when
finalizing the purchase. Without a proper
Commissioning registration the warranty will not be
valid.
Contact your Volvo Penta dealer if you have not
received the Warranty Information or Service
Book.
Your New Boat
Carefully read through the instructions and other
information that is delivered with the new boat. Learn
to handle the engine, controls and other equipment in
a safe and proper manner. If this is your first boat or if
the boat type is unfamiliar to you, we recommend that
you practice maneuvering the boat before casting off
on the maiden voyage. Make yourself familiar with the
boat’s seakeeping and maneuvering qualities at
different speeds, sea states and load conditions.
Bear in mind that a person in charge of a boat under
way bears the legal responsibility of knowing and
following the regulations for passage and safety afloat.
Learn which regulations apply to you and your waters
by contacting the relevant authorities or maritime
safety organization. We recommend that you complete
a boat driver’s course.
Running in the engine
The engine must be run in during the first 10 hours of
operation. Do this by using the engine in normal
operation, where full load is only applied for short
periods of time. Never run the engine at constant
speed for any longer periods of time.
Since oil consumption is higher during the running in
period, be sure to control the oil level more frequently
than normally recommended. See
Maintenance
for
more information.
