Maintenance Schedules
Maintenance Intervals
Maintenance intervals and the tasks to be performed, as shown in this current schedule, or as found in a
previously printed schedules, are generally based on an average boating application and environment.
However, individual operating habits and personal maintenance preferences can have an impact on the
suggested intervals. In consideration of these factors, MerCruiser has adjusted some maintenance intervals and
corresponding tasks to be performed. In some cases, this may allow for more individual tasks to be performed
in a single visit to the serving dealer, rather than multiple visits. Therefore, it is very important that the boat owner
and servicing dealer discuss the current Maintenance Schedule and develop appropriate maintenance intervals
to coincide with the individual operating habits, environment, and maintenance requirements.
