Certified engines
If you own or operate an emission certified engine it is
important to be aware of the following:
Certification means that an engine type has been
checked and approved by the relevant authority. The
engine manufacturer guarantees that all engines made
of the same type are equivalent to the certified engine.
This makes special demands on the care and main-
tenance you give your engine, as follows:
•
Maintenance and service intervals recommended
by Volvo Penta must be complied with.
•
Only Volvo Penta original spares may be used.
•
Service on injection pumps, pump settings and
injectors must always be done by an authorised
Volvo Penta workshop.
•
The engine must not be converted or modified,
except for the accessories and service kits which
Volvo Penta has approved for the engine.
•
Installation changes to the exhaust pipe and engine
air inlet ducts must not be done.
•
No seals may be broken by unauthorised personnel.
The general advice in the Operator's manual about
operation, care and maintenance apply.
Late or inadequate maintenance/service or the use of
spare parts not approved by Volvo Penta will invalidate
AB Volvo Penta’s responsibility for the engine specifi-
cation being in accordance with the certificated variant.
Volvo Penta accepts no responsibility or liability for any
damage or costs arising due to the above.
