Instruments and Controls
This chapter describes the instruments, panels and controls Volvo Penta sells for your engine.
If you would like to complement your instrumentation, or if your boat is equipped with instruments not described
here, we ask that you contact your Volvo Penta dealer.
NOTICE! Your boat is not necessarily equipped with all of the instruments, panels and controls described in this
chapter.
Ignition Lock
There is always a helm station with an e-Key panel on
a boat. The ignition must be switched on here in order
to use other helm stations.
Read the starting instructions in Starting, page 91 to
make sure you use the correct start procedure.
e-Key Panel
The Volvo Penta e-Key consists of a panel and a key
fob.
To unlock the EVC system, hold the key fob in front of
the
symbol on the panel. A sound confirms the
system is unlocked.
When the electrical system is locked, a red light will
flash under the symbol. The lamp goes out to indicate
the system is unlocked.
NOTICE! Wait 15 seconds after turning ignition off
before turning off battery power, to let the engine
control unit shut down correctly. Not following this
procedure can result in fault codes in the displays.
Key Management
Two key fobs are provided at the time of delivery. It is
possible to add extra keys; the system allows up to four
keys. With a key already registered to the system other
keys can be added or removed, see Key
Management, page 146.
Safety Lanyard
A safety lanyard (optional extra) can be connected to
the panel. Should the safety lanyard be removed, the
engines will stop, the system alerts and a warning
message will be displayed in the Information Panel.
