Short Term Storage
If the boat is not going to be used for a shorter period,
the engines must be run up to normal operating tem-
perature at least once every 14 days. This prevents
corrosion in the engines.
WARNING!
If the engines must be run up to normal operating tem-
perature with the boat kept up on land, make sure to
provide the seawater system with water during the
operation. If the seawater pump is run dry the impeller
could be damaged. Always check the impeller after dry
runs.
Please refer to chapter Impeller, Check and
Change page 92.
If the boat is kept up on land the sacrificial anodes on
the propulsion unit and on the transom must be
cleaned to remove any oxidation before launching the
boat. Please refer to Corrosion protection, checking
and changing page 103.
To avoid fault codes in the ACP function, select inac-
tive mode (see EVC Menu) before lifting the boat out
of the water. In this mode the ACP no longer monitors
the corrosion condition.
