TANK FILLING

Comply with the general precautions indicated in chapter 7 for tank filling.
To protect the deck from possible fuel splashes, wet up the area around the deck filler
with sea water before taking the plug off. In case of splashes, rinse the deck liberally
(after fitting the filler plug back in place).
During fuel tank filling, the engine must be stopped and smoking must be prohibited.
RECOMMENDATION / MAINTENANCE:
- Check regularly the filler plug O-ring for conditions to prevent water ingress,
- Don't shut the fuel valve after every utilization, except before an extended
unattended period,
- Ensure that the tank is full up to maximum, to avoid condensation,
- Clean the tank every five years to remove sludge deposits.
