FUEL TANKS
l
The boat is fitted with two tanks.
Each of them is filled separately.
Check the fuel gauge on each tank from the touch screen in front of
the chart table.
FILLING
l
To prevent any handling mistake, never fill the water and fuel tanks at
the same time.
During filling, avoid handling contaminants near the fillers.
Open and close the filler caps with the right key.
Use both fillers to fill the tanks with fuel.
DaNGER
Stop the engines and put out your cigarettes when you are filling the fuel
tanks.
MAINTENANCE OF THE TANKS
l
Regularly check the O rings of the fillers for good condition (to prevent
water from entering the tanks).
Do not turn off the fuel taps after each use (except in case the boat is
unattended for long).
Keep the fuel tanks as full as possible (to avoid condensation). Every
year check the fuel system for condition (hose, valves, etc.).
Ask a professional to carry out the works on the damaged parts of the
fuel system.
Please note: the capacity of the tanks (that is indicated in the page
'SPECIFICATIONS') may be not completely usable according to the trim
and load of the boat.
Always keep 20% fuel as a reserve.
FUEL FILTERS
l
In order to prevent any water infiltration, the fuel runs through two
filters: the first one is on the pipe that links the tank to the engine
(designed as a water decanter and pre-filter), the second one is an
integral part of the engine (designed to filter fuel finely). To know when
you have to intervene and how frequently you have to change them,
please refer to the engine instruction guide.
Drain it by undoing the knurled screw (but do not remove it) on the
base of the decantation bowl.
Allow to flow into a box till the fuel looks clean. Do it several times a
year.
Change the pre-filter at least once a year (access to it when you re-
move the bowl).
