Special Boating Conditions
The following section covers scenarios that are con-
sidered special boating situations. When using the
boat in the following situations, there are some special
procedures to take into consideration in order to keep
the engine, transmission, drive, and propeller in top
working condition.
Operating in Freezing Temperatures
The engine is cooled using raw (sea) water. Even
freshwater (closed cooling) engines use raw water for
cooling purposes. When the air and water tempera-
tures drop low enough, any water trapped in your
engine will freeze. Freezing water and ice expand. This
expansion could cause parts of the engine containing
water to crack. Always be sure to drain any trapped
water from your engine if temperatures are expected
to drop low enough to cause freezing.
NOTICE!
When temperatures drop below freezing,
failure to completely drain the cooling system will result
in serious damage to the engine and exhaust mani-
folds.
NOTICE!
Freeze damage to the engine package is not
covered by your Volvo Penta limited warranty.
Upon completion of engine operation, drain the engine
as described in
Draining the Engine
.
Shallow Water Operation
WARNING!
The sudden stop from striking an underwater object or
running aground can cause injury to the boat’s occu-
pants, who could be thrown about the boat during the
stop. Whenever the boat is underway the boat’s oper-
ator should take precautions to avoid these situations
and should encourage all occupants to be seated or
otherwise prepared for a sudden stop.

When boating in unfamiliar waters, obtain appropriate
navigation charts to avoid hard groundings. Proceed
with caution in these areas.
