Volvo Penta ignition keys are marked with a code for
use when ordering extra keys. Record the code so that
replacement keys can be ordered. Keep the code in a
safe place where unauthorized persons do not have
access to it.
Power Trim

Your Volvo Penta sterndrive is equipped with a power
trim/tilt system as standard equipment. Power trim is
operated using the buttons on the power trim switch or
on the control lever(s). The power trim/tilt allows you
to change the angle of the drive unit from the helm.
Changing the angle of the drive unit in relation to the
boat bottom is called trimming. Trimming provides the
following benefits:
● Improves acceleration to planing.
● Keeps the boat on plane at reduced throttle set-
tings.
● Improves fuel economy.
● Provides smoother and/or drier ride in choppy
water conditions.
● Increases maximum speed.
If you do not wish to use this feature, you may leave
the drive unit trimmed to the position that works best
for you.
NOTICE! Avoid over-trimming the drive system as this
can have a severely adverse effect on the steering of
the boat.
NOTICE! When planing, avoid running with the drive
fully trimmed for long periods. Apart from excessive
fuel consumption, this can cause cavity damage to the
propeller(s).
NOTICE! The trim release button A is used whenever
switching to Beach Range or Tilt Range. Press this
button whenever you will be tilting the drive above Trim
Range. For additional information, please refer to Trim
Ranges.
