In Case of Emergency
Despite regular maintenance according to the maintenance schedule and perfect operation, faults may occur
which must be attended to before the boat can travel further. This chapter contains tips for rectifying some of the
possible faults.
There are safety functions which are activated when certain faults occur, to protect the engine. The following can
occur:
• Engine can not be started.
• Gear in neutral and engine speed is limited to 1500 rpm, no steering.
• The engine stops.
If fault occurs, acknowlege any alarm and take the recommended measures. Please refer to this chapter and
.
If one or two engine(s) stops working, or operates at
reduced engine speed, it is recommended to avoid
operating at wide open throttle or high speeds for lon-
ger periods. The engine load for the engine(s) that is
(are) still working will be much higher than it normally
should be when all engines are working and this could
cause excessive wear to the engine(s) and propulsion
unit(s).
Triple installation
A boat with a triple installation is not likely to experi-
ence a serious fault on all engines and propulsion units
simultaneously. If a serious fault occurs which pre-
vents one or two engine(s) and propulsion unit(s) from
working normally it will still be possible to operate the
boat to your destination using the control levers and
the steering wheel.
If the engines and propulsion units on each side (1 &
3) are working it is also possible to operate the boat
with the joystick.
Running Aground
If the boat has been run aground or into an object in a
way that may have damaged any of the propulsion
units or propellers, the boat must be run (if possible) at
reduced speed or towed to the nearest harbor. Take
the boat out of the water and let an authorized Volvo
Penta workshop inspect the propulsion units and pro-
pellers. Undetected damage could lead to serious pro-
pulsion unit damage.
