Lube oils
Volvo Penta supplies a wide range of lubricants
developed especially for Volvo Penta engines. VDS
(Volvo Drain Specification) is a Volvo standard that
specifies Volvo’s oil grade requirements. We
recommend the use of the specified oil to ensure
engine function and a long service life.
Transmission oil
In a marine environment it is vitally important that the
correct gear lubricant is used for the product
concerned.
In Volvo Penta's extensive testing we pick out those
oils that meet our requirements for functionality and
that within the oil change intervals ensure the product’s
service life.
While oils from various suppliers meets both SAE class
(viscosity) and API class (quality), their additives often
differ. Additives can be up to 35% of the total volume,
and are crucial to how oil can handle a given water
content while still maintaining the necessary
lubricating properties. The additives also affect the
friction in, for example, the IPS unit clutch assembly.
The correct oil is crucial for the proper functioning of
the transmission.
IMPORTANT:
It is extremely important not to use other oil than
specified for the IPS unit.
Coolant
The main function of a coolant is to absorb heat from
the engine. The coolant also protects against freezing,
lime deposits and corrosion. Volvo Penta Coolant VCS
(yellow) and Volvo Penta Coolant (green) are two
completely different types of coolants, which contain
different types of inhibitors. Different types of coolants
(colors) must not be mixed.

IMPORTANT:
When cleaning with a high pressure washer, make sure to never aim the water jet at seals, rubber hoses or
electrical components.
Before storage
• The fuel system must be protected during storage
to prevent internal oxidation and corrosion.
• Start and run the engine with FAME-free fuel. Run
the engine for at least 10 minutes to allow the fuel
to reach all parts of the injection system. The fuel
may be fed from a separate tank if preferred.
• If B0 fuel is not available, fuel additives with anti-
corrosion and anti-oxidation properties may be
mixed in the fuel to protect the fuel system during
storage.
• Engines that use diesel fuel with a FAME content
greater than 10%, (even if additives are used) must
not be placed in long-term storage.
NOTICE! Attach a note on the engine/filters with the date FAME = Biodiesel
and type of oil that has been used so it is easier to B0 = Diesel with 0% FAME
remember what has been carried out when it is time to B10 = Diesel with 10% FAME
launch.
• Drain water from the pre-filter to reduce the risk of
bacterial growth.
• Drain and clean the fuel tank.
• Fill the fuel tank with fuel to avoid condensation
during storage. Use the recommended B0 fuel.
• Check that the coolant offers adequate protection
against freezing. Check the level and top up as
necessary.
After storage
• Replace filters before starting the engine. Keep
extra filters available as FAME may cause
microbial growth that blocks the fuel filter.
Before storage
Make sure the engine cooling system is filled with
glycol.
Make sure the engine lubrication system is filled with
oil.
Pump the coolant through the seawater cooling
system. (Marine engines only)
Seal all open connections.
Remove the battery cables from the battery.
Empty the AdBlue®/DEF tank if it is filled and clean
it.
Attach a tag into the engine with information about
the date, the product's part number, type of oil used
and sign it.
During storage
The engine must be cranked 2.5 turns every 8th
month.
If the engine can be started, run it until warm.
Check that humidity is below 40%.
Check that the temperature in the storage area is
between +5°C and +30°C.
Important!
• When cleaning, always use mild detergents/
solvents.
• When cleaning the engine and engine
compartment, the alternator, idler pulley, belt
tensioner, power steering unit and all electrical
components must be covered with plastic or similar
so that detergent/solvents do not get into the parts
• Where fitted, the AC compressor must also be
protected with plastic or similar.
• When cleaning air coolers, they should be vacuum
cleaned first before flushing with warm water from
the inside out.
• Do not use a power washer on the air cooler.
• Clean the outside with a sponge/brush.
• Then flush with lukewarm water.
• When pressure washing and steam cleaning, water
pressure may not exceed 80-100 bar at the nozzle.
Maintain a distance of 100-150 mm; use a fan spray
nozzle.
• It is not permitted to came jets of water from the
pressure washer directly onto the alternator. The
electrical regulator, rectifiers, power steering units,
bellows and mechanical parts (bearings) may be
damaged and lead to serious consequential
damage.
IMPORTANT:
Coolant of a suitable chemical composition must be
used all year round to protect the engine against
internal corrosion, cavitation and freeze bursting.
This even applies when there is no risk for freeze
damage, to make sure the engine always has a
complete corrosion protection.
• Drain the sea water from the heat exchanger and the
charge air cooler and remove the impeller pump
cover.
• Check that all the water drains out, any remaining
water could freeze and cause freeze bursting.
Pump out the bilge water and dry off the space in the
engine compartment. Ensure good ventilation during
winter storage to prevent the formation of mold/
corrosion.

Checklist
Suggestions for the checklist in addition to the regular
service points:
Battery, Maintenance
WARNING!
Risk of fire and explosion. Never allow an open flame
or electric sparks near the batteries.
WARNING!
Battery electrolyte is a corrosive acid and should be
handled with care. If you spill or splash electrolyte on
any part of the body, immediately flush the exposed
area with liberal amounts of water and seek medical
attention as soon as possible.
WARNING!
Ventilate the engine compartment before working on
batteries or battery connections.
IMPORTANT:
Batteries can be damaged if they are left discharged,
and can also freeze and burst easier in cold weather. If
the engine is not going to be used for a longer period of
time, the batteries should be fully charged, trickle
charged if possible.
Care
It is important always to follow the battery
manufacturer's recommendations and instructions
when replacing and charging batteries. Instructions for
maintenance and charging may vary depending on
battery type.
Modern batteries are usually maintenance free, but
there are some recommended measures to avoid
accidents and increase battery service life:
• Keep the batteries clean and dry. Contamination
and oxide on the batteries and battery terminals can
cause stray currents, voltage drop and discharge,
especially in damp weather.
• Remove oxidation from the battery poles and
terminals using a brass brush.
• Tighten the terminals securely and grease them with
terminal grease or petroleum jelly. Loose battery
connections can cause damage to the engine
electrical system.
• Charge the batteries regularly. Batteries kept at full
charge enjoy maximum service life. The easiest way
to check whether a battery needs charging is to use
a volt meter.
Battery replacement
IMPORTANT:
Make sure that the new battery fulfills the specifications
in Technical Data. Read the information supplied with
the battery before you begin the installation.
IMPORTANT:
Do not disconnect the batteries with the engine
running.
Sensitive electrical components can be immediately
damaged.
WARNING!
Never confuse the positive and negative poles on the
batteries. Risk of arcing and explosion.
Disconnection (A)
• Remove the negative (-) cable (black).
• Remove the positive (+) cable (red).
Remove the battery.
Connection (B)
