 GENERAL INFORMATION
GUARANTEE
In order to ensure that your engine gives the best possible performance
and to take advantage of the IVECO MOTORS guarantee, you must
follow the indications provided in this publication with great care; failure
to do so may result in invalidation of the guarantee.
SPARE PARTS
Always use Original IVECO MOTORS Spare parts. This is essential to
keep the engine in original running order.
The use of non-original spare parts will not only invalidate the guarantee,
but will mean that IVECO MOTORS will not be considered liable in any
way during the whole working life of the engine.
LIABILITY
The Manufacturer will only be considered liable subject to performance
of the control and maintenance operations indicated and described in
this manual; to this effect, proof that these operations have been
performed must be provided. Any special maintenance operations that
may be necessary must be carried out by qualified technicians from
authorised Workshops in the IVECO MOTORS Network, using the
instruments and equipment provided for the purpose.
SAFETY
The following information is intended to encourage caution when using
the engine, so as to avoid damage to persons or property as a result of
improper or incorrect behaviour.
 The engines must only be used for the purposes indicated by the
Manufacturer.
 Any tampering, modification and use of non-original spare parts
may compromise proper operation of the engine and safe
navigation;
never, under any circumstances make
modifications to the
wiring and to the units equipping the engine,
or connect them to other power systems.
 Pay particular attention to moving parts of the engine, to high
temperature components and to circuits containing pressurised
fluids; its electrical equipment houses electrical currents and
voltage.
 The exhaust fumes produced by the engine are bad for your health.
 The engine must only be moved using suitable lifting tackle, making
use of the U-bolts provided on the engine for that purpose.
 The engine must not be started up and used until the vessel in
which it installed has satisfied all necessary safety requirements, or
until the vessel has been guaranteed to comply with local laws and
regulations.
 The operations required to guarantee the best possible use and
preservation of the engine must only be carried out by persons of
proven experience, equipment with tools considered suitable by
IVECO MOTORS.
For the purpose of safety, further recommendations are given in the
chapter CONTROLS AND MAINTENANCE.
