Introduction
Certified engines
It is essential that owners and operators of emission
certified engines used in areas where exhaust emis-
sions are regulated by law are aware of the following
points:
A certification involves the engine type being
checked and approved by applicable authorities. En-
gine manufacturers guarantee that all engines of the
same type correspond with the certified engine.
This puts special demands on the maintenance
and service of your engine:
l Maintenance and service intervals recommended
by Volvo Penta must be followed.
l
Only Volvo Penta original spare parts may be
used.
l
Service of injector pumps, pump settings and in-
jectors must always be performed at an
authorised Volvo Penta workshop.
l The engine must not be modified in any way with
the exception of accessories and service kits ap-
proved by Volvo Penta for use on the engine.
l
Installation modifications must not be made to the
engine exhaust pipe or inlet channels.
l
Any sealed sections must not be broken by any-
one other than authorised personnel.
Otherwise, the general directions concerning running,
care and maintenance given in the operator’s manual
apply.
IMPORTANT! Neglected or deficient mainte-
nance/service and the use of non-original spare
parts will entail Volvo Penta renouncing any re-
sponsibility for the engine corresponding to the
certified version. Volvo Penta will not compen-
sate for damage and/or costs arising from the
above.
