Example 4: Neglect  

Whisper generators have an option for an auto start/stop 
mode or interval mode.  
WhisperPower cannot be held responsible for damage 
caused by the unattended running generator. 
 
Guarantee means that faulty parts are repaired or 
replaced free of charge. If necessary the whole generator 
unit will be exchanged. Labour necessary to complete 
repairs on board a vessel executed by an authorized 
service engineer is covered, but is limited to a reasonable 
number of hours and reasonable rates in relation to the 
actual repair work that has to be done.  
Travel expenses and travel hours are not covered. Also 
not covered is the labour required to take a generator out 
of a boat or for reinstallation. There is no cover for labour 
needed to get access to the generator, for example to 
remove equipment or bulkheads etc.  
 
Goods to be delivered under guarantee will be invoiced. 
Only after the faulty goods are returned will the invoice be 
credited. Payment in advance may be required or 
guaranteed by credit card. If after the faulty goods are 
returned, it is indicated that the failure was not covered by 
guarantee a credit will not be issued. For example if a 
Printed Circuit Board is returned with clear damage 
caused by seawater, guarantee will be refused.  
Freight costs to deliver spares by normal mail or carriers is 
covered under guarantee. Special services like express 
mail, overnight delivery etc. are not covered. Taxes and  
duties are not covered. For shipments to remote off shore 
areas any additional costs incurred over normal carriage 
will be invoiced to the customer.  
The cost for returning faulty goods is not covered under 
guarantee.  
 

1.4 Liability 

WhisperPower does not accept responsibility for damage, 
injuries or casualties which are the result of operation of 
the generating set in specific conditions which brings 
dangers which could not be foreseen, or could be avoided 
by additional measures. WhisperPower does not accept 
liability for damage due to use of the generator, possible 
errors in the manuals and the results thereof.  
 

Automatic start/stop  

WhisperPower cannot be held responsible for damage 

caused by the unattended running generator using the 

auto-start/stop mode or interval mode. 

 

 

1.5 Identification 

 

 

1.5.1 General 

 

Before using this generating set it is very important to 
identify the set correctly. To communicate for service or 
ordering parts it is also essential to correctly identify the 
generating set. Also for the daily operation of the genera-
ting set it is necessary that the operator knows the correct 
specifications.  
 

1.5.2 Identification 

plate 

 

All required identification data are on the identification 
plate.  

 

Fig. 1: Identification plate. 

  

1  The identity of the generating set is given by the 

SERIAL NUMBER.  

When this number is available the manufacturer can 
trace the specifications of the generating set. On the 
nameplate are also some basic features of the set:
