After Engine Shutdown

• Check the engine and engine bay for leakages.
• Close the fuel tap.
• Close the sea cock where fitted.
• Take an hour meter reading and carry out
preventive maintenance according to the
maintenance schedule.
• Boats with stern drives: Trim the stern drive down to
maximum to protect the trim ram piston's untreated
surfaces from fouling.
If there is a risk of the boat striking bottom with the
stern drive, the drive must instead be trimmed up to
the maximum lift position.
• Turn off the main switch before any long stoppage.
NOTICE! Depending on the model and setup, there
could be more than one switch.
NOTICE! Do not turn off the main switch within 30
seconds after turning off the ignition. This in order to
save engine data to the engine control unit.
