SYSTEM OPERATIONS-67
If the engine alarm buzzer DOES NOT
turn OFF, turn OFF the engine immedi-
ately if the oil pressure gauge displays
no, or very low, oil pressure. See your
Silverton dealer for inspection and
repair, if necessary. No, or very low,
oil pressure may cause serious dam-
age to the internal mechanism of your
engine(s).
If the automatic fi re extinguisher indi-
cator light DOES NOT remain illumi-
nated, turn OFF the engine(s) immedi-
ately and follow the proper procedure
to check for
fi re aboard your yacht as
detailed in the Automatic Fire Extin-
guisher System Section of this Owner’s
Manual. A
fi re aboard your yacht may
result in serious personal injury or
death.
If one of the batteries is “dead” or not
suf fi ciently charged to start your engine,
depress the “Parallel Start Switch” simul-
taneously while turning the ignition switch
to START. The parallel start switch draws
power from both batteries during the start-
ing procedure and it is located on the helm
switch panel. Refer to the Electrical pages
of this section of your Owner’s Manual
for a location of the Switch. Release both
switches immediately after the engine
starts.
DO NOT continue to depress the “Par-
allel Start Switch” after the engine has
started. Damage to the alternator(s)
may result.
After you have started both engines and
determined they are running properly, the
“warm-up” procedure should be followed
before departing the dock/mooring. The
proper “warm-up” procedure is as follows:
Check the oil pressure gauges to be
certain each engine has suf fi cient oil pres-
sure. Diesel engines should have between
35 and 70 psi. If the oil pressure is lower
than the normal operating range, turn OFF
the respective engine and contact your
Silverton dealer for further inspection and
repair, if necessary.
Start and allow engines to run at speci-
fi ed RPM until they reach proper operating
temperature. Warm-up RPMs are listed
in the engine operator’s manual. Normal
operating temperature for gasoline and
diesel engines are 165° F – 175° F de-
pending on manufacturer’s speci
fi cations.
In gasoline engine applications,
if the engine temperature rises
above the normal operating range
(a maximum of 200° F) and audible
warning alarm and indicator light
will come on indicating the engine
is over heating.
Turn OFF the respective engine
immediately. In a diesel engine ap-
plication, if the engine temperature
rises signi
fi cantly above the normal
