Preface

Dear Customer,
these Operating Instructions are intended to familiarize you with your new MAN Diesel
engine and how it operates.
The Publication “Fuels, Lubricants and Coolants for MAN Diesel Engines” supplements
these Operating Instructions.
Note:
Both publications apply to the engine and must always be kept to hand in its vi-
cinity in the engine room.
Please read this Manual and the “Instructions for the installation of MAN Diesel Engines”
before you put the new engine into operation.
Comply in full with instructions relating to operation, prevention of accidents and envi-
ronmental protection.
MAN Diesel engines are developed and manufactured in line with the latest state of the
art. However, trouble-free operation and high performance can only be achieved if the
specified maintenance intervals are observed and only approved fuels, lubricants and
coolants are used.
It is imperative and in your own interest to entrust your MAN Local Service Centre with
the removal of any disturbances and with the performance of checking, setting, and
repair work.
Yours faithfully,
MAN Nutzfahrzeuge Aktiengesellschaft
Werk Nürnberg
