If installed, the gas vapor detector
determines if there is a level of
gasoline vapors that is unsafe in the
engine room of the boat. If installed,
turn on the unit and wait about one
minute for it to do its safety test. If
all is well it will display a green light.
You must run the test before you start
the engines. In the event you don’t
get a green light, you must investigate
the bilge of the boat for gas fumes or
signs of a fuel leak before starting the engines. If uncertain, consult
a marine service professional
If installed, the automatic fire
extinguishing system utilizes an
instrument display unit (gauge) that
provides the operator with a system
status of charged or uncharged
condition by an audible alarm.
With the ignition switch turned on
the indicator light shows system
is charged and operating properly.
With the ignition on and no light
indicates the system has discharged. If the system should discharge the
ignition system will be instantaneously interrupted. Should this occur
shut down the engine, ventilation blower, and any electrical system
components. Investigate the source of the shutdown immediately and
take appropriate action. Also, in the cockpit is located a manual release
for the fi re extinguishing system. Find the release and read the related
sections in this manual along with the vendor’s information concerning
the operation of the manual release. In case of emergency inform
other crew members on the operation of the fi re extinguishing system.
