Your boat may be equipped
with an automatic fire
extinguisher system located
in the engine compartment.
In the event of a fire, the
heat sensitive automatic
head will release the
extinguishant as a vapor,
totally flooding the area in
fire-killing concentrations.
IF ACTUATION OCCURS,
I M M E D I AT E LY S H U T
DOWN ALL ENGINES,
POWERED VENTILATION,
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AND EXTINGUISH ALL
SMOKING MATERIALS. DO NOT IMMEDIATELY
OPEN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT!!
THIS FEEDS OXYGEN TO THE FIRE AND
FLASHBACK COULD OCCUR.
Allow the exinguishant to “soak” the compartment
for at least fifteen (15) minutes and for hot metals
or fuels to cool before cautiously inspecting for
cause of fire. Have portable extinguishers at
hand and ready. Do not breathe fumes or vapors
caused by the fire.

The manual fire extinguishing system allows
the operator to manually activate the automatic
extinguisher in the engine compartment. Early
detection and use of the manual override system
will reduce fire damage by eliminating the time
necessary for heat in the engine compartment to
rise to a temperature necessary to activate the
automatic fire extinguisher.
To Operate:
1. Pull pin securing the handle.
2. Pull red FIRE handle quickly and briskly.
