Running in
The engine must be “run in” during its first 10
hours, as follows:
Use the engine in normal operation. Full load should
only be applied for short periods. Never run the engine
for a long period of time at constant speed during this
period.
Higher oil consumption is normal during the first 100-200
hours of operation. For this reason, check the oil level
more frequently than normally recommended.
When an opening clutch is installed, this should be
checked more carefully during the first days. Adjust-

 Introduction

Instrument, EMS 2
NOTE! All instruments are accessories.

CIU - Control Interface Unit

The CIU is the “translator” between the EMS 2 control
unit and the customer’s own control panel. The CIU
has two serial communication links, a fast one and a
slow one.
The fast one is a so-called CAN link. All data related
to instruments, indication lamps, connectors and po-
tentiometers is controlled by this link.
The slow link manages diagnostic information for
flashing codes etc.

DU - Display Unit
The DU is an instrument panel which shows engine
working values graphically on an LCD screen. It con-
sists of an computerised unit for permanent installa-
tion in a control panel.
The DU is connected between the engine control unit
and the CIU or DCU.

Easy Link instrument

(only together with a CIU)
The following “Easy Link” instruments are available:
– Engine speed / hours counter (fault codes are also
displayed on the tachometer display when the di-
agnostic button is pressed)
– Coolant temperature
– Oil pressure
– Oil temperature
– Battery voltage
– Alarm panel
– Turbo pressure

Introduction

DCU (Display Control Unit)

The DCU (Diesel Control System) control panel is available as an optional accessory for the EMS (Engine Man-
agement System) electronic control system. The DCU is a digital instrument panel which communicates with the
engine control unit. DCU has several functions, such as: engine control, monitoring, diagnostics and parameter
setting.
The menus in the DCU system can be used to check, and in some cases to set a number of different functions in
the EMS system.

plays show normal values after you have started the engine.

WARNING! Never use start spray or similar products as a starting aid. Explosion risk!

Before starting
• Check that the oil level is between the MAX and
MIN marks. Please refer to the “Maintenance, lu-
brication system” chapter:
• Open the fuel taps.
• Check that no leakage of oil, fuel or coolant
occurs.
• Check the air filter pressure drop indicator. Please
refer to the “Maintenance, Engine, general” chap-
ter:
• Check the coolant level and that the radiator is not
blocked externally. Please refer to the “Mainte-
nance, cooling system” chapter:

WARNING! Do not open the filler cap (1) when

the engine is hot. Steam or hot fluid could spray
out.

NOTE! Only open filler cap (1). Do not open filler cap
(2).
• Turn the main switch(es) on.

IMPORTANT! Never disconnect the current with

the main switch(es) when the engine is running.
This can damage the alternator.

• Move the engine speed control to idle, and release

the opening clutch/gearbox if installed.

 Starting the engine

Starting in extreme cold

Certain preparations must be made to facilitate engine
starting, and in some cases to make starting possible
at all.
Use a winter grade fuel (of a well-known make) which
has been approved for the relevant temperature. This
reduces the risk of wax deposits in the fuel system.
At extremely low temperatures, the use of a fuel heat-
er is recommended.
For fully acceptable lubrication, a synthetic engine oil
of recommended viscosity for the relevant tempera-
ture should be used. Please refer to the “Maintenance,
lubrication system” chapter: Synthetic lubricants are
able to manage a wider temperature range than miner-
al-based lubricants.
Pre-heat the coolant with a separately installed elec-
tric engine heater. In extreme cases, a diesel-burning
engine heater may be needed. Ask your Volvo Penta
dealer for advice.

IMPORTANT! Make sure that the cooling sys-

tem is filled with a glycol mixture. Please refer to
the “Maintenance, cooling system” chapter:

The batteries should be in good condition. Cold weath-

er reduces battery capacity. Increased battery capaci-
ty may be necessary.

21
Starting the engine

Never use start spray

WARNING! Never use start spray or similar prod-
ucts as a starting aid. They may cause an explo-
sion in the inlet manifold. Personalinjury could
also be caused.

Starting with auxiliary batteries

WARNING! Batteries (especially auxiliary batter-
ies) contain hydrogen which is highly explosive
in contact with air. A spark, which can be formed
if the auxiliary batteries are wrongly connected,
is enough to make a battery explode and cause
damage.

1. Check that the auxiliary batteries are connected

(series or parallel) so that the rated voltage corre-
sponds to the engine system voltage.
2. First connect the red (+) jumper cable to the auxil-
iary battery, then to the flat battery. Then connect
the black (–) jumper cable to the auxiliary battery,
and lastly to a place which is some distance
away from the flat batteries, e.g. at the main
switch on the negative cable or the negative cable
terminal on the starter motor.
3. Start the engine.

WARNING! Do not move the connections when

you attempt to start the engine (risk of arcing),
and do not stand and lean over one of the batter-
ies.

4. Remove the jumper cables in the reverse order

from installation.

WARNING! The ordinary cables to the standard

batteries must not be loosened on any condition.

22
Operation
Correct operation technique is very important for both fuel economy and engine life. Always let the engine warm
up to normal operating temperature before operating at full power. Avoid sudden throttle openings and operation at
high engine speeds.

Checking instruments Operation at low load

Check all instruments directly after starting, and then Avoid long-term operation at idle or at low load, since
regularly during operation. this can lead to increased oil consumption and even-
tually to oil leakage from the exhaust manifold, since
IMPORTANT! On engines which operate continu- oil will seep past the turbocharger seals and accompa-
ously, the lubrication oil level must be checked, ny the induction air into the inlet manifold at low turbo
at least every 24 hours. Please refer to the boost pressure.
“Maintenance, lubrication system” chapter:
One consequence of this is that carbon builds up on
valves, piston crowns, exhaust ports and the exhaust
turbine.

ment. to normal maintenance, there will be no risk of
malfunctions caused by operation at low load.
More information about fault codes and fault tracing is
found in the “Diagnostic function” chapter. • Reduce operation at low load to a minimum. If the
engine is regularly test run without load once a
week, operation duration should be limited to 5
minutes.
• Run the engine at full load for about 4 hours once
a year. Carbon deposits in the engine and exhaust
pipe can then be burned off.

23
Stopping the engine
During longer breaks in operation, the engine must be warmed up at least once every fortnight. This prevents cor-
rosion att acks in the engine. If you expect the engine to be unused for two months or more, it must be laid up:
Please refer to the chapter entitled “Laying up”.

IMPORTANT! If there is a risk of frost, the coolant in the cooling system must have sufficient frost protec-
tion. Please refer to the “Maintenance, cooling system” chapter: A poorly charged battery can freeze and
burst.

Before stopping
Let the engine run for a few minutes without loading
before stopping it. This permits the temperature inside
the engine to even up, “after-boiling” is avoided, at the
same time as the turbocharger cools somewhat. This
contributes to long service life without malfunctions.

Stop
• Disengage the clutch (if possible).
• Press the “STOP” button / turn the key to “S”.

After stopping
• Check the engine and engine bay for leakage.
• Turn off the main switches before any long stop-
page.
• Carry out maintenance in accordance with the
schedule.

WARNING! Working with, or going close to a run-

ning engine is a safety risk. Watch out for rotat-
ing components and hot surfaces.

Extra stop
The extra stop (AUX STOP) is on the left of the en-
gine, above the control module. Please refer to “Main-
tenance, Component location”.

WARNING! Working with, or going close to a run-

ning engine is a safety risk. Watch out for rotat-
ing components and hot surfaces.

General inspection
Make it a habit to give the engine and engine bay a vi-
sual check before the engine is started and after
operation, when the engine has been stopped.
This will help you to discover quickly if anything ab-
normal has happened, or is about to happen.
Look especially carefully at oil, fuel and coolant leak-
age, loose screws, worn or poorly tensioned drive
belts, loose connections, damaged hoses and electri-
cal cables. This inspection only takes a few minutes
and can prevent serious malfunctions and expensive
repairs.

WARNING! Deposits of fuel, oils and grease on

the engine or in the engine bay are a fire hazard
and must be removed as soon as they are dis-
covered.

IMPORTANT! If you discover a leakage of oil,

fuel or coolant, investigate the cause and fix the
fault before you start the engine.

IMPORTANT! Remember the following when

washing with a high pressure washer: Never aim
the water jet at radiators, intercoolers, seals, rub-
ber hoses or electrical components.

Charge air pipe, leakage check

Inspect the condition of the charge air hoses, hose
unions and clamp condition for cracks and other dam-
age. Change as necessary.

IMPORTANT! Torque the clamps to 9 ±2 Nm

(6.5 ±1.4 lbf-ft).

Oil level, checking and filling

The oil level must be inside the marked area on the
dipstick and must be checked daily before
the first start.
Top up with oil via the filler opening on the left side of
the engine.
Check that the correct level has been achieved. Wait
for a few minutes to allow the oil to run down into the
sump.

IMPORTANT! Do not fill up above the maximum

oillevel. Only use a recommended grade of oil.
(please refer to previous page).

NOTE! The oil level sensor only measures the oil lev-
el at the time when the ignition is turned on. In other
words, not continually during operation.

7. Shut the engine off, check the oil level and top up
the engine oil as necessary.
8. Check sealing round the oil filters.

32
 Maintenance

Cooling system
The cooling system ensures that the engine works at the right temperature. It is a closed system and must there-
fore always be filled with a mixture of at least 40% concentrated coolant and 60% water, to offer protection from
interior corrosion, cavitation and frost bursting.
We recommend that you use “Volvo Penta Coolant, Ready Mixed”, or “Volvo Penta Coolant” (concentrated)
mixed with pure water acc. to the specification, please refer to “Coolant. Mixing”. This grade of coolant is the only
one that is developed for and approved by Volvo Penta.
The coolant should contain a good grade of ethylene glycol and a suitable chemical formula for full engine protec-
tion. The use of only an anti-corrosion preparation is not permissible for use in Volvo Penta engines. Never use
water by itself as the coolant.

IMPORTANT! Coolant fluid should be used all year round. This also applies in areas where there never is
any risk of frost, to give the engine full corrosion protection.
Future warranty claims related to engine and accessories may be refused if an unsuitable coolant has been
used, or if the recommendation for coolant mixture has not been observed.

NOTE! The corrosion protection additives become less effective as time passes, which means that the coolant
must be changed. Please refer to the “Maintenance Schedule”. The cooling system should be flushed when the
coolant is changed, please refer to “Cooling system. Flushing”.

“Volvo Penta Coolant” is concentrated coolant that

should be mixed with water. It has been prepared to
work best with Volvo Penta engines and offers excel-
lent protection against frost and cavitation damage,
plus frost bursting.

“Volvo Penta Coolant, Ready Mixed” is ready-

mixed coolant, 40% “Volvo Penta Coolant” and 60%
water. This mixture protects the engine from corrosion
damage, cavitation damage and frost bursting down to
-28°C (-18.4°F).

33
Maintenance

Coolant. Mixing
WARNING! All glycol is hazardous and pollutes
the environment. Do not swallow it!
Glycol is flammable.

IMPORTANT! Ethylene glycol must not be

mixed with other types of glycol.

Mix:
40% “Volvo Penta Coolant” (conc. coolant)
60% water
This mixture prevents against internal corrosion, cavi-
tation and frost bursting down to about -28°C (-18.4°F).
(at 60% glycol concentration, the freezing point is low-
ered to -54°C (-65.2°F)). Never mix more than 60% con-
centrate (Volvo Penta Coolant) in the coolant. This will
give reduced frost protection and poorer cooling effect,
with a consequent risk of overheating.
IMPORTANT! The coolant must be mixed with
pure water, use distilled – de-ionized water. The
water must comply with the requirements speci-
fied by Volvo Penta, please refer to “Water qual-
ity”.

IMPORTANT! It is extremely important that the

correct concentration of coolant is put in the sys-
tem. Mix in a separate clean vessel before filling
the cooling system. Make sure that the liquids
mix.

NOTE! Only use the coolant recommended by Volvo
Penta.
3. Mix the correct amount of coolant in advance, to
ensure that the cooling system is completely
filled.
4. Fill up with coolant, so that the level ends up be-
tween the MIN and MAX markings. Do not start
the engine until the system is vented and com-
pletely filled.
Filling should be done with the engine stationary.
Fill up slowly, to allow the air to flow out.
5. Start the engine when the cooling system has
been completely filled and vented. Open any vent-
ing taps some while after starting, to allow shut-in
air to escape.
If a heating unit is connected to the engine cooling
system, the heat control valve should be opened
and the installation vented during filling.
6. Stop the engine after about an hour and check the
coolant level. Top up as necessary.

35
Maintenance

Coolant. Draining
The engine must be stopped before draining, and the
filler cap unscrewed.

WARNING! Do not open the filler cap (1) when

the engine is warm, except in emergencies.
Steam or hot fluid could spray out.

NOTE! Do not open filler cap (2).

On engines which are to be laid up or put in storage,
the engine cooling system should not be drained.
The coolant contains corrosion-inhibiting additives.
1. Remove the filler cap (1).
2. Open all drain points. Drain the coolant from the
radiator and engine block, using the drain hose.
The drain nipples are situated under the radiator
on the right side of the engine block.
3. Check that all coolant drains out. Deposits may
be found inside the drain plug/tap, and need to be
cleared away. There is otherwise a risk that cool-
ant could remain and cause frost damage. Check
whether the installation has any further taps or
plugs at the lowest points of the cooling water
pipes.
4. Shut any taps and check that the spring-loaded
covers on the nipples close completely. Install
the rubber plugs.

not damaged. Re-install the components.

IMPORTANT! Do not use a high pressure power

washer.

37
Maintenance

Cooling system, cleaning

Cooling performance is reduced by deposits in the radi-
ator and cooling galleries. The cooling system should
be cleaned out when the coolant is changed.

IMPORTANT! Cleaning must not be done if there

is any risk of the cooling system freezing, since
the cleaning solution does not have any frost
prevention ability.

1. Empty the cooling system. Please refer to “Cool-

ing system, draining”.
2. Put a hose into the filling hole in the expansion
tank and flush with pure water, which complies
with Volvo Penta specifications, please refer to
the “Water Quality” chapter, until the water which
runs out is completely clear.
3. If there should still be some contamination left af-
ter flushing for a long time, cleaning can be done
with coolant. Otherwise, continue as in item 8 be-
low.
4. Fill the cooling system with 15-20% mixture of
concentrated coolant. Only use Volvo Penta rec-
ommended concentrated coolant, mixed with pure
water.
5. Drain the coolant after 1-2 days of operation.
NOTE! To prevent suspended material from settling
back in the system, emptying should be done rapidly,
within the space of 10 minutes, when the engine has
not been standing still for a long time. Remove the fill-
er cap and possibly the lower radiator hose to in-
crease the speed of emptying.
6. Flush the system at once, very carefully, with
pure hot water to stop dirt from settling on the in-
ner surfaces again. Flush until the water that runs
out is completely clean. Make sure that any
heater controls are set to full heating during emp-
tying.
7. If contamination should still be left after a long pe-
riod of flushing, you can do a clean-out with Volvo
Penta radiator cleaner, followed by finishing-off
with Volvo Penta neutralizer. Carefully follow the
instructions on the package. Otherwise, continue
as in item 8 below.
8. When the cooling system is completely free from
contamination, close the drain taps and plugs.
9. Fill up with Volvo Penta recommended coolant,
following the instructions in the chapters entitled
“Coolant, mixing” and “Coolant, filling”.

IMPORTANT! It is extremely important that the

correct concentration and volume of coolant is
put in the system. Mix in a separate clean ves-
sel before filling the cooling system. Make sure
that the liquids mix.

 Maintenance

Fuel system

Only use the grades of fuel recommended in the fuel specification below. Always observe the greatest cleanliness
during re-fueling and work on the fuel system.
All work on the injection system of the engine must be done by an authorized workshop.

WARNING! Fire hazard. Work on the fuel system must be done with the engine cold. Fuel spills on hot sur-
faces or electrical components can cause fires. Store fuel-soaked rags in a fire-proof manner.

Fuel specification
The fuel must at least comply with national and
internationalstandards for commercially supplied fuels,
such as:
EN590 (with nationally adapted environmental and
coldrequirements)
ASTM D 975 No 1 - D and 2 - D.
JIS KK 2204
Sulfur content: Complying with legal requirements in
each country.content exceeds 0.5 percent by weight,
the oil change intervals must be changed. Please re-
fer to the “Lubrication system” heading.
Extremely low sulfur content fuel (urban diesel in Swe-
den and city diesel in Finland) can cause a loss of up
to 5% of power and an increase in fuel consumption of
about 2–3 %.

Maintenance

Fuel filter, changing

NOTE! Do not fill the new fuel filter with fuel before
assembly. There is a risk that contamination could get
into the system and cause malfunctions or damage.

WARNING! The fuel filter must be changed when

the engine is cold, to avoid the risk of fire due to
spilled fuel on hot surfaces.

1. Clean round the fuel filter.

2. Remove the filter with a suitable filter remover.
Collect any spilled fuel in a collection vessel.
3. Clean the filter mating surface on the filter
bracket.
4. Lubricate the seal with diesel fuel and install the
new fuel filter. Tighten the fuel filter in accordance
with the instructions on the fuel filter.
5. If necessary, vent the fuel system, please refer to

about 10 minutes.
5. Do a leakage and function check.

41
Maintenance

Electrical system
The engine is equipped with a 2-pole electrical system and an alternator. System voltage is 24V.

WARNING! Before any work is done on the electrical system, the engine must be stopped and the current
cut by switching off the main switch(es). All connections to equipment such as battery chargers or other aux-
iliary equipment must be broken.

Main switch
The main switches must never be disconnected be-
fore the engine has been stopped. If the circuit be-
tween the alternator and the battery is disconnected
when the engine is running, the alternator and elec-
tronics can be damaged. The charging circuits must
never be re-connected with the engine running, for the
same reason.

IMPORTANT! Never disconnect the current with

the main switch(es) when the engine is running.

Circuit breaker
The engine is equipped with a 10 A circuit breaker
which cuts the current if overloaded.
The circuit breaker is located on the left-hand side of
the engine, on the left of the control unit.
Note. The engine stops if the fuse trips.
If the circuit breaker trips frequently, an authorized
Volvo Penta workshop should be contacted to investi-
gate the cause of the overload.

Electrical connections
Check that electrical connections are dry, free from
oxide and that they are securely tightened. Spray
these connections as necessary with water-repellent
spray (Volvo Penta universal oil).

42
 Maintenance

Battery. Maintenance
WARNING! Fire and explosion hazard. Batteries
must never be exposed to open flames or
sparks.

WARNING! Never confuse the positive and

negative poles on the batteries. Risk of arcing
and explosion.

WARNING! Battery electrolyte is highly corro-

sive. Always protect your eyes, skin and clothes
when handling batteries. Always use protective
goggles and gloves. If acid comes into contact
with your skin, wash at once with soap and a lot
of water. If you get battery acid in your eyes,
flush at once with a lot of water, and get medical
assistance at once.

Connection and disconnection

When you connect batteries, first connect the + cable
(red) to the + pole on the battery. Then connect the –
cable (black) to the – pole on the battery
When you disconnect batteries, connect the – cable
(black) first, then the + cable (red).

Cleaning
Keep the batteries dry and clean. Contamination and
oxide on the batteries and battery poles can cause
stray currents, voltage drop and discharge, especially
in wet weather. Remove oxidation from the battery
poles and terminals, using a brass brush. Tighten the
terminals securely and grease them with terminal
grease or Vaseline.

Filling
The electrolyte level should be 5 - 10mm (0.2-0.4")
above the cell plates in the battery. Fill up with dis-
tilled water if necessary: After filling, the battery
should be charged for at least 30 minutes by running
the engine at fast idle.
NOTE! Some maintenance-free batteries have special
instructions, which must be observed.

43
Maintenance

Batteries, charging
WARNING! Explosion risk! Hydrogen is given off
when batteries are charged. This forms an explo-
sive mixture with air. A short circuit, open flame or
spark could cause a violent explosion. Ventilate
well.

WARNING! Battery electrolyte is highly corrosive.

Protect your eyes, skin and clothes. Always use
protective goggles and gloves. If acid comes into
contact with your skin, wash at once with soap and
a lot of water. If you get battery acid in your eyes,
flush at once with a lot of cold water, and get medi-
cal assistance at once.

Charge batteries if they have become discharged. If the

engine is not used for a longer period of time, the batter-
ies should be fully charged, then possibly trickle
charged (please refer to the battery manufacturer’s rec-
ommendations). Batteries are damaged by being left dis-
charged, and can also freeze and burst easier in cold
weather.

IMPORTANT! Observe the instruction manual for

the battery charger carefully. To avoid the risk of
electrochemical corrosion when an external charger
is connected, the battery cables should be re-
moved from the batteries before the charger is con-
nected.

During charging, unscrew the cell plugs but leave them

in the plug holes. Ventilate well, especially if the batter-
ies are charged in an enclosed space.

WARNING! Always cut the charge current before

the battery charger clamps are undone. Never con-
fuse the positive (+) and negative (-) poles on the
batteries. This can cause serious arcing and can
cause an explosion.

For so-called quick charging , there are special rules.

Quick charging can shorten battery life, and should
therefore be avoided.

Laying up
The engine and other equipment must be laid up to prevent damage if they are not used for two months or more. It
is important that this is done in the correct manner, and nothing is forgotten. For this reason, we have compiled a
check list of the most important points.
Before the engine is taken out of service for a long period of time, an authorized Volvo Penta workshop should
check it over.
Have any faults and deficiencies attended to, so that the equipment is in order, ready for the next start.

WARNING! Before you start to do any maintenance work, read the “Maintenance” chapter carefully. This
contains instructions for doing work in a safe and correct manner.

WARNING! Some conservation oils are flammable. Some are also dangerous to breathe. Ensure good venti
lation. Use a protective mask for spraying.

IMPORTANT! Remember the following when washing with a high pressure washer: Never aim the water jet
at seals, rubber hoses or electrical components.

Conservation
• For up to 8 months’ stoppage:
Change the oil and oil filter on the engine, then
warm it up afterwards.
More than 8 months’ stoppage:
Conserve the lubrication and fuel systems with
conservation oil. Please refer to the instruction
on the next page.
• Check that the coolant offers sufficient frost pro-
tection. Top up as necessary. Alternatively, you
can drain the coolant (also drain the coolant filter).
• Drain any water and contamination from the fuel
filters and fuel tank. Fill the fuel tank completely,
to avoid condensation.
• Disconnect the battery cables, clean and charge
the batteries. Trickle charge the batteries while
the equipment is laid up. A poorly charged bat-
tery can freeze and burst.
• Clean the outside of the engine. Do not use a high
pressure washer for engine cleaning. Touch up
paint damage with Volvo Penta original paint.
• Spray the components of the electrical system
with water-repellent spray.
• Check and rust-proof any control cables.
• Put a note on the engine with the date, type of
conservation and the conservation oil used.
• Cover over the air filter, exhaust pipe and engine
