3.11 ALARM DISPLAY
When the ignition key is first turned ON or turned to the START position, you may hear an
audible alarm signal and see a “Stop Sign” appear on the EVC Display, indicating that the
diagnostic function has registered malfunction.
PRESS the ENTER knob once on the EVC Display to acknowledge the alarm. When the fault
has been acknowledged, the audible warning will become silent and the source of the problem
indicated on the display.
Please refer to Volvo Engine Manual chapters “In Case of Emergency” and “Fault Register” and
you will find detailed information about recommended action.
3.12 OPERATION
Engine trouble can arise if the engine is operated for a long time under
overloaded conditions at max RPM. Recommended “Max Cruising Speed” is at least 10% below
full throttle of 3400-3600 RPM.
OIL PRESSURE – Normally between 3 and 5 bars, except lower when idling
COOLANT TEMPERATURE – Normally between 167 and 203 degrees F.
CHARGING – System 13.5 – 14 Volts during Operation.
Depending on hull structure and engine installation, engine and hull resonance may be greater at
some speeds than others. This is normal and you will learn to pick the sweet spots. If you hear
any abnormal sounds, stop the engine and inspect.
If any warning lights or buzzers activate, stop the engine immediately.
Determine the cause and repair the problem before continuing to operate.
While running, pay attention to the engine gauges on the LCD display. A significant change in
temperature, oil pressure, or voltage should be investigated immediately, before the engine is
damaged.
