SYSTEM OPERATIONS-32
If you do not observe or smell any evi-
dence of a
fi re and you have waited the
recommended ten (10) minutes, open
your engine compartment and examine
the Halon 1301 container actuator to de-
termine if it has been discharged. Refer to
the Manual, which illustrates the charged
and discharged positions of the actuator. If
the system has been discharged or ap-
pears charged, but the indicator light does
not illuminate, see your Silverton dealer
for further inspection and repair, if neces-
sary.
In the event of an engine/generator com-
partment
fi re, the following steps should
be taken to avoid the likelihood of person-
al injury or death and to minimize property
damage:
-Remain calm and avoid panic.
-Immediately turn off all electrical power,
including the engine ignition and the
engine compartment ventilation blowers.
NOTE: Do NOT turn off power to your
VHF Radio.
-DO NOT open the engine/generator
Compartment for at least ten (10) minutes
to allow the Halon vapor to extinguish the
fi re.
-Remove your portable fi re extinguisher
from its mounting bracket and prepare it
for use, if necessary.
-Instruct all passengers to put on their
Personal Flotation Devices (PFD’s) and
move away from the source of the
fi re.
-Contact the United States Coast Guard
on your VHF radio and advise of your situ-
ation and location. Maintain radio contact
until the crises has ended and assistance
has arrived.
-If the fi re is successfully extinguished,
examine the engine compartment com-
ponents for damage. DO NOT start your
engines if any damage is noted. Request
towing assistance to a safe harbor and
contact your silverton Dealer for a thor-
ough inspection and repairs.
-When replacing parts of the fi re fi ghting
installation only matching components
shall be used, bearing the same designa-
tion or being equivalent in their technical
and
fi re resistant capabilities.
