Storage Descriptions
IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend that this service be performed by a Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility.
Damage caused by freezing is not covered by the Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Limited Warranty.
NOTICE
Water trapped in the seawater section of the cooling system can cause corrosion or freeze damage. Drain the seawater section
of the cooling system immediately after operation or before any length of storage in freezing temperatures. If the boat is in the
water, keep the seacock closed until restarting the engine to prevent water from flowing back into the cooling system. If the boat
is not fitted with a seacock, leave the water inlet hose disconnected and plugged.
NOTE: As a precaution, attach a tag to the key switch or steering wheel of the boat to remind the operator to open the seacock
or unplug and reconnect the water inlet hose before starting the engine.
The power package must be protected from freeze damage, corrosion damage, or both types of damage during storage. Storage
is any length of time the product is not operated. Based on the length of storage certain precautions and procedures must be
observed to protect the power package.
Freeze damage can happen when water trapped in the seawater cooling system freezes. For example, after operating the boat,
exposure to freezing temperatures for even a brief period of time could result in freeze damage.
Corrosion damage is the result of saltwater, polluted water, or water with a high mineral content trapped in the seawater cooling
system. Saltwater should not stay in an engine's cooling system for even a brief storage time; drain and flush the seawater cooling
system after each outing.
Freezing‑weather (freezing temperature) operation refers to operating the boat whenever freezing temperatures are possible.
Likewise, freezing‑weather storage refers to whenever the boat is not being operated and freezing temperatures are possible. In
such cases, the seawater section of the cooling system must be completely drained immediately after operation.
Seasonal storage refers to when the boat is not being operated for one month or more. The duration varies according to the
geographic location. Seasonal storage precautions and procedures include all the steps for freezing‑weather storage and some
additional steps that must be taken when storage will last longer than the short time of freezing‑weather storage.

1. Read all precautions and perform all procedures found in
Draining the Seawater System
and drain the seawater section of
the cooling system.
2. As a precautionary measure, attach a tag to the key switch or steering wheel of the boat reminding the operator to open the
seacock or unplug and reconnect the water inlet hose before starting the engine..
3. For additional assurance against freezing and corrosion fill the seawater cooling system with a mixture of propylene glycol
antifreeze and tap water. See
Seasonal and Extended Storage Instructions
in this section.
