  • Page 24: X) Gas System

    FIRST 31.7 X) GAS SYSTEM Gas Stove The boat is delivered without any fire extinguisher. It is your own responsibility to comply with the laws and regulations of your own country (Number, capacity, type and place of fire extinguishers). We advise you at least to install an extinguisher less than 5 metres away from each berth, less than 2 meters away from the extinguisher aperture in the engine compartment, less than 2 meters away from any naked flame device and less than 1 meter avay from the helm pedestal.
  • Page 25 FIRST 31.7 Spirit Stove Some boats are fitted with a spirit stove. Do not smoke when handling the fuel. Keep the fuel in a can for this purpose, a good distance away from the stove, the engine and any other sources of heat.
  • Page 26: Xi) Emergency System Of The Steering System

    FIRST 31.7 XI) STEERING SYSTEM, EMERGENCY SYSTEM Boats who are fitted with a steering wheel carry an emergency tiller ; keep clear emergency tiller access. Check once a year at least that the steering cables are tight properly. Lift the aft seat, open the cap, drive the emergency tiller into the print on the rudderstock head..

  • Page 29: Xiii) Handling

    FIRST 31.7 XIII) HANDLING Contact your BENETEAU dealer for the maintenance and repairs of your boat. He will advise properly, will supply you with the spare parts you need or the materials that are suited to your boat. Have your boat examined and maintained once a year during the winter storage.
  • Page 30: Xiv) Maintenance

    FIRST 31.7 XIV) MAINTENANCE Because you have chosen to invest your money in a recreational item that spends its life in a harsh environment, it is very important to ensure that your boat is well and regularly maintained. Furthermore, a fair number of accidents are due to negligence and the lack of maintenance. These two reasons (the protection of your property and safety) must make you become aware of the importance of a regular and thorough maintenance of your boat.
  • Page 31 FIRST 31.7 The Outside Teak Woodworks : Scrub the woodworks using water. The teak woodworks do not need any particular protection. If you just rub them down with fine sandpaper, it will renovate the look of the teak. Plexiglass: Rinse with fresh water. Clean them using a sponge and a cleaning product for windows.
  • Page 32 FIRST 31.7 5) SAILS Whenever it is possible, rinse the sails with fresh water and let them dry. The sails cannot stand the sun and water ; therefore, unrig them whenever you can or at least protect them, using appropriate covers.
  • Page 33: Xv) Environment

    FIRST 31.7 XV) ENVIRONMENT Do not pour to the sea the oil you have just drained, use appropriate waste tanks. When you fill up the engine tank, take all the precautions in order to avoid the hydrocarbon overflowing. In the harbour, do not use the heads on board if they are not equipped with holding tanks.
