Identifying Numbers
Immediately after you have taken delivery of your boat,
make a note of the serial number and model designation
of the engine and drive as well as the shield or reverse
gear. Include the serial number and model designation of
the boat and any extra equipment. This information is
necessary when you contact your Volvo Penta or boat
sales representative for service and spare parts. Take a
copy of the information and keep it in a safe place so it is
available should the boat be stolen.

Certificated engines
Important information for engines certificated for
Lake Constance and Switzerland
All Volvo Penta engines and products are developed to
minimize environmental impact.
National and regional legislation is not identical in all the
markets where Volvo Penta sells its products. Occasionally legislation requires that we build special engine
variants, or that an engine must be approved in advance,
that is, certificated by the local authorities.
An engine with certification means that we, as the
manufacturer, guarantee that all engines manufactured
are of the same type as the certificated and approved
example. Certification is not only a requirement covering
engines from the factory, but also that engines in use
must meet the environmental demands set for that
engine. In order for Volvo Penta as the manufacturer to
take responsibility for engines in use, certain requirements pertaining to service and spare parts must be met.
We do not wish to discourage owners from carrying out
service work themselves, rather the opposite since an
owner can quickly notice if an engine is not operating
normally. However, a number of service operations
demand access to special expertise, workshop manuals,
special tools and other equipment designed for the
engines. These service operations may only be carried
out by an authorized Volvo Penta Service workshop.
Always contact your Volvo Penta dealer if you are not
sure about anything concerning your engine’s function or
maintenance.
As an owner or operator of a certificated Volvo Penta
engine it is important that you are aware of the following:
l The Service Intervals and maintenance operations
recommended by Volvo Penta must be followed.
l Only Volvo Penta Original Spare parts intended for
the certificated engine may be used.
l Service work on the ignition system, ignition settings
and fuel injection system (gasoline/petrol) or injection
pumps, pump settings and injectors (diesel) must
always be carried out by an authorized Volvo Penta
workshop.
l The engine may not be altered or modified in any
way, with the exception of accessories and service
kits developed by Volvo Penta for that engine.
l No modifications to the exhaust pipes and air supply
ducts for the engine room (ventilation ducts) may be
undertaken as this may effect exhaust emissions.
l Any seals on the engine may not be broken other
than by authorized persons.
