The 342 Performance may be
equipped with an automatic
fire extinguisher system
located aft of the engine on
the transom. In the event
of a fire, the heat sensitive
automatic head will release
the extinguishant as a vapor,
totally flooding the area in
fire-killing concentrations.
The system indicator light is
wired to the battery and is
constantly on to safeguard
your boat.
The indicator light, located on the dash, indicates to
the helmsman when the unit has discharged. Under
normal circumstances, the charge indicator light is
lit. If the unit discharges, the light will go out.

Boats not equipped with the automatic fire
extinguisher option are equipped with a fire
extinguisher discharge port (see figure 7.2.2).
In the event of a fire, a fire extinguisher can be
inserted through the port and discharged into the
engine compartment without having to open the
engine box. Do not open the engine compartment
immediately! This feeds oxygen to the fire and
flashback could occur.

In rainy and/or cold weather, fresh air must circulate
through boat to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.

Exhaust fumes from engines contain deadly carbon
monoxide gas (CO). Boats with canvas or with poor
ventilation are most likely to collect fumes.
