Cruising speed
Avoid operation at full throttle, for best fuel economy.
We recommend a cruising speed which is at least
10% below the maximum engine speed at full speed
(full throttle). The maximum engine speed will vary
due to propeller choice, load and sea conditions
Synchronizing engine speed
When driving with twin engines, both the operating
economy and comfort will be increased when the en-
gines are operating at the same engine speed (rpm).
When the synchronization function is activated, the
engine speed (rpm) of the starboard engine is auto-
matically adjusted to that of the port engine. The syn-
chronization function is activated automatically if the
following conditions are met.
1. The engine speed levers for both engines are in
(approximately) the same position.
2. The engine speed on both engines must exceed
800 rpm.
NOTE! The synchronizer is disengaged as soon as
the conditions are no longer met.
Changing the helm station
The fi rst time you change control panel after starting
the EVC system, a bulb check is done automatically.
All LEDs and bulbs light up for 2 seconds.
1. Check that the control levers are in neutral on
both the control panel you leave and on the new
control panel.
2. Check that the EVC system is not locked.
3. Press the activation button (1) for at least one
second. When the button is released, the indica-
tion lights up to confi rm that the control position is
activated.
4. Press the activation button (1) for a further sec-
ond to lock the EVC system. The padlock sign
lights up in confi rmation. Unlock the system by
pressing the activation button for one second.
This can only be done from an activated control
panel.
