4 Product description
WARNING
• Never block access to safety equipment, fire extinguishers, fuel valves or
main power switches.
• Never block any ventilation openings made in the boat because their
purpose is to clear the air of fuel fumes.
• Never use a wrong type of fuel in the heater or cooker as this may
damage them.
• Never use an open flame when detecting leaks.
4.2.9.2 Maintaining the fuel system
Follow the engine manufacturer’s maintenance schedule.
• Annually, check the condition of the hoses and make sure that there are no visible cracks,
abrasion, or deterioration.
• Replace worn parts with genuine, marine-grade parts only.
• Bi-monthly, inspect the fuel system for presence of water in the fuel tank.
Presence of water in fuel can be checked by inspecting the contents of the fuel filter.
If any water is found, it must be removed and the whole fuel tank dried before the tank can be
refilled with fuel.
• Examine the fuel tank and lines for corrosion and leaks.
4.2.10 Fresh water system
The fresh water system consists of a fresh water tank, pump and filter.
Your boat may also be equipped with a water supply point in the galley and a deck shower and a water
supply point for the wet bar.
The tank is located under front deck. The pump and hydraulic accumulator are next to the tank. The
fresh water tank is filled via the inlet pipe on the foredeck.
The fresh water system is turned on by switching on the fresh water pump. The pump switch is located
on the fuse panel.
The system maintains a working pressure automatically with the assistance of a hydraulic accumulator,
which is why the pump does not need to be shut after use.
Switch the system off when leaving your boat. Do not forget to check filter in the pump regularly.
The dealer is responsible for disinfecting the fresh water tank before sale.
NOTICE
The fresh water system must be thoroughly emptied for winter storage. It is not
recommended to use any anti-freeze products in the fresh water system.
