n VENTILATION OF THE ENGINE BAY
The engine bay fans start up automatically as soon as the engine starts.
n FUEL TANKS
The boat is fi tted with a 237 litres tank as a standard equipment.
She may be fi tted with an optional second tank of 237 litres, instead of a fresh
water tank, of the starboard aft cabin.
The fuel gauge can be read on the panel of the chart table.
The access to the valve is on the tank, under aft port berth.
Thanks to a pull button, located in the port aft cabin, you can select the fuel
tank to be used (optional).
n
FILLING
To prevent any handling mistake, never fi ll the water and fuel tanks at the
same time.
During fi lling, avoid handling contaminants near the fi llers.
Open and close the fi ller caps with the right key.
n MAINTENANCE OF THE TANKS
Regularly check the O rings of the fi llers for good condition (to prevent water
from entering the tanks).
Do not turn off the fuel taps after each use (except in case the boat is unatten-
ded for long).
Keep the fuel tanks as full as possible (to avoid condensation).
Every year check the fuel system for condition (hose, valves, etc.).
Ask a professional to carry out the works on the damaged parts of the fuel
system.
Please note : the capacity of the tanks (that is indicated in the page ‘SPECI-
FICATIONS’) may be not completely useable according to the trim and load of
the boat.
Always keep 20% fuel as a reserve.
n FUEL FILTERS
In order to prevent any water infi ltration, the fuel runs through two fi lters : the
fi rst one is on the pipe that links the tank to the engine (designed as a water
decanter and pre-fi lter), the second one is an integral part of the engine (de-
signed to fi lter fuel fi nely).
