Operation

Correct operating technique is very important for both fuel economy, environmental protection and engine life.
Always let the engine warm up to normal operating temperature before operating at full power. Avoid sudden
throttle openings and operation at high engine speed.

Reading the Instruments

Check all instruments directly after starting, and then
regularly during operation.
NOTICE! On engines in continuous operation, it is
recommended that the lubrication oil level is checked
at least every 24 hours. Refer to Oil level, checking and
topping up.

Alarms

If the EMS receives abnormal signals from the engine,
the control unit generates fault codes and alarms, in
the form of lamps and audible warnings. This is done
by means of CAN signals to the instrument.
More information about fault codes and fault tracing
can be found in the chapter Fault
handling, page 41.
