Certified engines
The following information concerns engines certified for Euro-
pean use on Lake Constance and in Switzerland.
All Volvo Penta engines and products have been developed on
the basis that they should have as little an impact on the envi-
ronment as possible. However, national and regional environ-
mental legislation is different for all the markets where Volvo
Penta sells its products. Sometimes legislation determines that
we have to build special engines, or that the engine must be
approved in advance and certified by the authorities.
The fact that the engine is certified means that Volvo Penta, as
the engine manufacturer, ensures that all the engines it manu-
factures meet the sample engine approved for certification.
Certification does not just cover requirements with respect to
factory-new engines: Certified engines already in operation
must also be able to meet environmental requirements. Certain
requirements with respect to servicing and spare parts must be
met in order that Volvo Penta as engine manufacturer will be
able to assume responsibility for engines in operation.
Volvo Penta does not advise you against carrying out service
yourself. In fact, Volvo Penta views it as an advantage because
you have the opportunity to find out quickly whether any com-
ponents are not working or are working abnormally. However,
special expertise, service manuals, special tools and other suit-
able equipment are required in order to be able to perform
some service checks. Only an authorized Volvo Penta service
dealer must carry out these service checks. Always contact
your Volvo Penta dealer if you are unsure of anything to do with
your engine’s function or maintenance.
Those of you who own or maintain a certified Volvo Penta en-
gine must be aware of the following:
•
Service intervals and maintenance by Volvo Penta
must be adhered to.
•
Only Volvo Penta genuine parts intended for certified
engine may be used.
•
An authorized Volvo Penta service dealer must always
service the ignition system (ignition timing) and the
fuel injection system.
•
The engine must not be rebuilt or in any way modified,
with the exception of the accessories and serviceable
units developed for the engine by Volvo Penta.
•
Changes to the installation of exhaust pipes and in-
take air ducts to the engine compartment (ventilation
ducts) must not be implemented, as this may affect
exhaust emissions.
•
Unauthorized personnel must not break any seals
present.
NOTE! Use only Volvo Penta genuine parts when you
need spare parts. Using non-genuine parts
means that AB Volvo Penta can no longer as-
sume responsibility for an engine meeting the
certified design. Volvo Penta will not assume
any responsibility for any kind of damage or
costs due to non-genuine Volvo Penta service
parts being used for the product in question.
Bodensee Shiffahrts Ordnung (BSO) number
Your engine may have an assigned Bodensee Shiffahrts Ord-
nung (BSO) number. A BSO number is assigned to an engine
model when it is certified for European use on Lake Constance
and in Switzerland. There are two BSO certification decals
placed on the engine, one on the starboard high-rise bracket
and the other on the front of the port cylinder head to verify en-
gine certification. These decals must be maintained so engine
certification can be verified in the future.
When an emissions check is required, the plug located on ei-
ther high-rise elbow can be removed for installation of a test
probe.
