Introduction
This Operator's Manual has been compiled to help you get the most from your Volvo Penta engine. It contains all
the 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 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 envi-
ronment. 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 wit-
hout being worried about our health. Unfortunately,
this cannot be taken for granted nowadays but is
something we must work together to achieve.
The engine can be expected to use more engine oil
during the running-in period than would otherwise be
normal. Check the oil level more often than is
normally recommended.
The prescribed warranty inspection “First Service
Inspection“ must be carried out during this first period
of operation. For more information: See the Warranty
and Service Book.
As a manufacturer of marine engines, Volvo Penta
has a special responsibility, why care of the environ-
ment is a core value in our product development.
Today, Volvo Penta has a broad range of engines
where progress has been made in reducing exhaust
emissions, fuel consumption, engine noise, etc.
Fuel and oils
Only use the fuel and oils recommended in the chap-
ter Technical Data. Other grades of fuel and oil can
cause operating problems, increased fuel consump-
tion and, in the long-term, a shorter engine service
life.
We hope you will take care in preserving these qua-
lities. Always follow any advice given in the Operator's
Manual concerning fuel grades, operation and mainte-
nance and you will avoid causing unecessary interfe-
rence to the environment. Get in touch with your
Volvo Penta dealer if you notice any changes such as
increased fuel consumption exhaust smoke.
Always change oil, oil filters and fuel filters at the
recommendedintervals.
Adapt speed and distance to avoid wash and noise
disturbing or injuring animal life, moored boats, jetti-
es, 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 batteries, etc.,
for disposal at a destruction plant.
Service and replacement parts
Volvo Penta marine engines are designed for high
operational reliability and long service life. They are
constructed to withstand the marine environment while
also affecting it as little as possible. Through regular
service and the use of Volvo Penta original spare
parts, these qualities will be retained.
Our joint efforts will make a valuable contribution to
ourenvironment.
The Volvo Penta worldwide network of authorized
dealers are at your service. They are specialists in
Volvo Penta products and have accessories and the
original replacement parts, test equipment and special
tools necessary for high quality service and repair
work.
Running-in
The engine must be run in for its first 10 operating
hours as follows:
Operate the engine normally. Do not operate it at full
load except for short periods. Never run the engine at
a constant engine speed for long periods during the
running-inperiod.
Always follow the maintenance intervals contained in
the Operator's Manual. Remember to state the engine/
transmission identification number when ordering
service and replacement parts.
