Environmental responsibility
Scania develops and produces engines that are as
environmentally-friendly as possible. Scania has
made major investments in the reduction of
harmful exhaust emissions in order to fulfil the
environmental requirements in force in almost
every market.
At the same time, we have been able to maintain
a high level of performance and operating econ-
omy for Scania marine engines. To maintain
these throughout the entire service life of the en-
gine, it is important for the user to follow the in-
structions on running, maintenance and fuel and
lubricating oil as outlined in the Operator's man-
ual.
Other green initiatives taken include ensuring
that, following maintenance and repair, waste
that is harmful to the environment (for example
oil, fuel, coolant, filters and batteries) is disposed
of accordance with the applicable environmental
requirements.
Safety
The following pages contain a summary of the
safety precautions to be complied with when op-
erating and maintaining Scania engines. The
equivalent text can also be found under the rele-
vant maintenance item.
To prevent damage to the engine and to ensure
that it runs optimally, follow the instructions in
the warnings and advisories.
If the instructions are not followed, the warranty
can cease to apply.
