Storage

Short Term Storage

If the

boat is not going to be used for a shorter period,

the engines must be run up to normal operating tem-

perature at least once every 14 days. This prevents

corrosion in the engines.

WARNING!

If the

engines must be run up to normal operating tem-

perature with the boat kept up on land, make sure to

provide the seawater system with water during the

operation. If the seawater pump is run dry the impeller

could be damaged. Always check the impeller after dry

runs.

Please refer to chapter Impeller, Check and

Change page 100.

If the boat is kept up on land the sacrificial anodes on

the propulsion unit and on the transom must be

cleaned to remove any oxidation before launching the

boat. Please refer to Corrosion protection, checking

and changing page 111.

To avoid fault codes in the ACP function, select inac-

tive mode (see EVC Menu) before lifting the boat out

of the water. In this mode the ACP no longer monitors

the corrosion condition.
