destruction of property.
!
DANGER
Check for leaks in tubing, connections and
hoses. Correct the cause of any leaks and
ventilate the area to insure that no fumes
remain, prior to energizing any electrical
equipment and/or starting the engines.
• NEVER use homemade containers to fill your
fuel tanks.
• Fuel carried on-board outside of a fixed
fuel system should be stored in an
approved container or in a portable tank such
as provided for outboard engines and be
stowed safely outside of the engine or living
compartment(s).
• Shut down the engine, motors and fans prior
to taking on fuel. Any ignition sources should
be extinguished before filling the fuel tanks.
• Close all ports, windows, doors and hatches.
• Fueling should never be done at night except
in well-lighted areas.
• Always keep the fuel nozzle in contact with
the fuel fill plate or the edge of the fuel tank
opening throughout the filling process.
• Allow areas where gasoline vapors could
collect to be ventilated before starting the
engine.
• Wipe any spillage completely and dispose of
rags or waste on shore.
• Secure the fill cap tightly.
• Portable tanks should only be filled while on
the ground, never on-board the boat.
Ethanol is an oxygenated hydrocarbon compound
that has a high octane rating and therefore is useful
in increasing the octane level of unleaded gasoline.
The fuel-system components of your Mercury
engine(s) have been tested to perform with the
maximum level of ethanol-blended gasoline (10%
ethanol) currently allowed by the EPA in the United
States.
Special precautions should be considered with the use
of fuel containing ethanol in your system. Fuels with
ethanol can attack some fuel-system components,
such as tanks and lines, if they are not made from
acceptable ethanol-compatible materials. This can
lead to operational problems or safety issues such
as clogged filters, leaks or engine damage.
Your boat was manufactured, and shipped from the
factory, with ethanol-compatible materials. Before
introducing gasoline with ethanol into your fuel tank,
ask your dealer if any components have been added
or replaced that are not recommended by Boston
Whaler, Mercury or may not be ethanol-compatible.
Filling the Tank
It is best to maintain a full tank of fuel when the
engine is not in use. This will reduce air flow in and
out of the tank due to changes in temperature as
well as limiting exposure of the ethanol in the fuel
to humidity and condensation.
Phase Separation
The use of improper gasoline or additives can
damage your fuel system and is considered
misuse of the system. Damaged caused by
improper gasoline or additives WILL NOT be
covered under warranty.
NOTICE
Ethanol-Blended Fuel
The use of fuels containing ethanol higher than
10 percent (E-10) can damage your engine and/
or fuel system and will void the warranty.
!
CAUTION
E85 FUELS COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE YOUR
ENGINES AND MUST NEVER BE USED.
