Introduction
This operator’s manual has been compiled to help you get the most from your Volvo Penta engine. It contains
information you need in order to operate and maintain your engine safely and correctly. Please read the operator’s
manual carefully and learn how to operate the engine, controls, and any other equipment safely.
Always have the operator’s manual available. Keep it in a safe place and do not forget to give it to the new owner
if you sell your boat.
Care of the Environment
We would all like to live in a clean and healthy environ-
ment—somewhere where we can breathe clean air,
see healthy trees, have clean water in our lakes and
oceans, and are able to enjoy the sunshine without
being worried about our health. Unfortunately, this
cannot be taken for granted nowadays; we must work
together to achieve this vision.
As a manufacturer of marine engines, Volvo Penta
has a special responsibility, where care of the environ-
ment is a core value in our product development. To-
day, Volvo Penta has a broad range of engines on
which progress has been made in reducing exhaust
emissions, fuel consumption, engine noise, and other
detrimental side-effects. We hope you will take care in
preserving these qualities.
Always follow any advice given in the manual—con-
cerning fuel grades, operation, and maintenance pro-
cedures—and you will avoid unnecessarily harming
the environment. Get in touch with your Volvo Penta
dealer if you notice any changes such as increased
fuel consumption exhaust smoke.
Adapt speed and distance to avoid wash and noise
disturbing or injuring animal life, moored boats, jetties,
etc. Leave islands and harbours in the same condition
as you want to find them.
Remember to always leave hazardous waste such as
waste oil, coolant, paint and wash residue, flat batter-
ies, and other toxic disposables at a suitable disposal
site or destruction plant.
Our joint efforts will make an invaluable contribu-
tion to our environment.
Fuel and Oils
Only use the fuel and oils recommended in the chap-
ter entitled
Technical Data on page 113. Other grades
of fuel and oil can cause operating problems, in-
creased fuel consumption and—in the long-term—a
shorter engine service life.
Always change oil, oil filters, and fuel filters at the rec-
ommended intervals.
Breaking-in
The engine must be broken-in for its first 10 operating
hours as follows:
•
Operate the engine normally.
•
Do not operate it at full load except for short peri-
ods.
•
Never run the engine at a constant engine speed
for long periods during the breaking-in period.
•
Check the oil level more often than is normally
recommended; the engine can be expected to
use more engine oil during the breaking-in
period than would otherwise be normal.
For a more detailed explanation of the break-in period,
please refer to the appropriate section in the chapter
entitled
Maintenance on page 61.
A First Service Inspection should be carried out after
20–50 running hours. For additional information
please refer to the document entitled
Warranty Infor-
mation North America PN 7796733.
