Engine

The owner's packet contains detailed engine operation and maintenance manuals.
Read these manuals before operating or performing maintenance to the engine.

Bilge Blower

Your boat may feature a bilge
blower system. The bilge blower
removes fumes from the engine
compartment and draws fresh air
into the compartment through the
deck vents.
To ensure fresh air circulation,
operate the bilge blower for at
least four minutes before start-
ing the engine, during starting,
and while operating the boat
below cruising speed.
EXPLOSION HAZARD!
• Operation of the blower system is not a guarantee that explosive fumes have
been removed. If you smell any fuel, DO NOT start the engine. If the engine are
already running, immediately shut off the engine and all electrical accessories
and investigate immediately.
• DO NOT obstruct or modify the ventilation system.
