SPECIAL WARNINGS
Coolant high temperature
In case the temperature on the instrument is excessive or an alarm is
off, reduce speed and return to the harbor and check the sea water
intake and cooling circuits status. The following should also be
checked:
• water and alternator belts tensioning.
• thermostatic valve operation.
• cleaning of heat exchangers.
Low lubricant pressure
In case the pressure reading on the instrument is considered not
sufficient or if a "Low oil pressure" led turns on, stop the engine and
check the oil level. Refill if necessary (see section CHECKS and
MAINTENANCE).
Should signaling persist, return at low speed and contact an authorized
Customer Care Center.
Water in the fuel pre-filter
It's a good habit to drain the water inside filters before the relevant led
turns on.
Avoid using the engine when the tank contains only the reserve fuel;
such condition fosters the formation of condensation and the suction
of sludge or air, causing the engine to stop.
Air filter clogging and inefficient exhaust circuit
Regularly inspect the cleaning of air suction inlets and exhaust piping.
Maintenance intervals contained in this manual only take into
account the performances of the engine parts and not of those parts
manufactured at the Yard or any other external intervention.
WARNING!
When the engine is hot, inside the cooling circuits a
pressure is generated which can cause the sudden exit of
the hot liquid, generating burn hazards. Open the coolant
pan refill cap only if necessary and exclusively when the
engine is cold.
WARNING!
Use the utmost care when refueling and avoid liquid or
solid polluting agents to enter the tank. It is reminded that
smoking or ignition of flames is prohibited during refueling.
WARNING!
Visually check that the exhaust circuit is not obstructed or
damaged in order to avoid formation of hazardous fumes
inside the hull.
