4 General requirements
4.1 Information required
The owner's manual shall provide information necessary for the safe use of the craft and its equipment
and systems. It shall draw particular attention to set up, maintenance, regular operation, prevention of
risks and risk management with due consideration for the environment.
The owner's manual may contain a check-list of actions to be undertaken before craft use.
4.2 Format
The owner’s manual shall be produced in a language acceptable to or required in the country of
intended use. It can be multilingual. If only provided in an electronic means, the manufacturers shall
have a procedure in place that allows printing of the owner’s manual by the owner.
A generic owner's manual, i.e. one that may be used for more than one model or type of craft, may be
used, provided it is modified, if necessary, to meet the requirements of this document for each craft
type. This may be done with supplements.
The manual shall contain an index or table of contents referenced with page numbers, if it is more than
four pages long.
Information may be presented as words, graphical symbols or pictograms.
Illustrations shall be in accordance with 4.4.
Where graphical symbols are used, ISO 8999:2001 and ISO 11192:2005 shall be used. If graphical
symbols are used, they may be explained by words.

Where practicable, related texts and illustrations should be arranged so that they may be studied
together.
4.3 Units and definitions
SI units shall be used in the owner's manual in accordance with ISO 80000-1:2009; other units may be
added between brackets.
4.4 Illustrations
Drawings, schematics, photographs and diagrams may be used. Drawings need not be to scale.
5 Content of owner's manual
5.1 General
Subclauses 5.2 to 5.12 specify information that shall be included in the owner's manual as appropriate
for the type of craft. If any information is already provided in an acceptable or required language by
way of a specific manual(s) for an appliance(s), engine(s), equipment or system provided with the craft,
it is only necessary to refer to this (these) manual(s) in the owner’s manual.
5.2 Introduction to the manual
Each manual shall have an introductory paragraph informing the owner of his/her responsibility
concerning the intended use of the craft.
If safety labels are used, their meaning shall be explained in the owner's manual, according to the
following.
Danger — indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury. This signal word is to be limited to the most extreme situations.
Warning — indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
Caution — indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in minor or
moderate injury.
Notice — indicates information considered important, but not hazard-related, for example, relating to
property damage.
Annex A provides a general introduction to the owner’s manual. It may be modified accordingly to suit
the particular craft.
Annex B provides a list of international standards requiring information and safety labels to be inserted
in the owner’s manual.
5.3 General information and craft data
The following information shall be in the owner's manual. List only the relevant items.
a) Name of craft manufacturer, company or person responsible for placing the craft on the market.
b) Name of the model or type.

SIST EN ISO 10240:2020
ISO 10240:2019(E)
c) Craft design category/categories, as marked on the builder's plate, and statements explaining the
design category(ies) as follows.
1) A craft given design category A is considered to be designed to operate in winds of less than
Beaufort force 10 and the associated significant wave heights.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on extended voyages, for example across
oceans, but can also occur inshore when unsheltered from the wind and waves for several hundred
nautical miles. Depending on atmospheric conditions, winds can gust to about 32 m/s.
2) A craft given design category B is considered to be designed to operate in winds of Beaufort
force 8 or less and the associated significant waves heights of up to 4 m.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on offshore voyages of sufficient length but
can also occur on coasts where shelter might not always be immediately available. These conditions can
also be experienced on inland seas of sufficient size for the wave height to be generated. Depending on
atmospheric conditions, winds can gust to about 27 m/s.
3) A craft given design category C is considered to be designed to operate in typical steady winds
of Beaufort force 6 or less and the associated significant waves heights of up to 2 m.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on exposed inland waters, in estuaries, and
in coastal waters in moderate weather conditions. Depending on atmospheric conditions, winds can
gust to about 18 m/s.
4) A craft given design category D is considered to be designed to operate in typical steady winds
of Beaufort force 4 or less and the associated significant waves heights of up to 0,3 m and
occasional waves of 0,5 m height.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on sheltered inland waters, and in coastal
waters in fine weather. Depending on atmospheric conditions, winds can gust to about 12 m/s.
d) The mass in the light craft condition (m ) (unladen mass of the craft) (kg) according to
LC
ISO 8666:2016. For craft with outboard engines, it should be stated that this mass includes the
mass of the heaviest recommended outboard engine, but in some cases (a small rowing or outboard
tender for example) the craft may be used with or without the outboard. In these cases, it would be
useful to also know the weight without the outboard motor (for example, to determine if it is light
enough to carry on a car roof).
2)
e) Maximum load for the builder’s plate (m ), according to ISO 14946:— . Include a note to draw
MBP
attention to the loading provisions (see 5.5).
f) Mass of the craft in the fully loaded condition (m ) (kg), which is the sum of the craft's mass, in
LDC
the light craft condition, plus the maximum load for the builder’s plate; a breakdown of the fully
loaded mass as calculated is recommended.
g) Main dimensions of the craft: L , B , L , B , and the definition of the dimensions given; these
H H max max
dimensions shall be in accordance with ISO 8666:2016.
h) Drafts:
1) maximum height (air draft), in the light craft condition;
2) maximum draft(s) in the fully loaded condition.
i) Type of main propulsion [power, sail, other (give details)].
j) If the craft is a sailboat, basic information on sail and rigging.
NOTE Information such as main dimensions of sails, reefing system, storm sail dimensions, etc. may
be given.
2) Under preparation. Stage at the time of publication: ISO/FDIS 14946:2019.

4 General requirements
4.1 Information required
The owner's manual shall provide information necessary for safe use of the craft and its equipment
and systems. It shall draw particular attention to set up, maintenance, regular operation, prevention of
risks and risk management with due consideration for the environment.
The information does not need to include servicing information other than routine checks intended
to be carried out for operating the craft. The owner's manual may contain a check-list of actions to be
undertaken before use.
4.2 Format
The owner’s manual shall be produced in a language acceptable to or required in the country of
intended use. It can be multilingual. If only provided in an electronic means, the manufacturers shall
have a procedure in place that allows printing of the owner’s manual by the owner.
A generic owner's manual, i.e. one that may be used for more than one model or type of craft, may be
used, provided it is modified, if necessary, to meet the requirements of this International Standard for
each craft type. This may be done with supplements.
The manual shall contain an index or table of contents referenced with page numbers, if it is more than
four pages long.
Information may be presented as words, symbols or pictograms.
Illustrations shall be in accordance with 4.4.
Where symbols are used, ISO 8999 and ISO 11192 shall be used. If symbols are used, they may be
explained by words.
Where practicable, related texts and illustrations should be arranged so that they may be studied
together.

4.3 Units and definitions
SI units shall be used in the owner's manual in accordance with ISO 1000; other units may be added
between brackets.
4.4 Illustrations
Drawings, schematics, photographs and diagrams may be used. Drawings need not be to scale.
5 Content of owner's manual
5.1 General
Subclauses 5.2 to 5.11 specify information that shall be included in the owner's manual as appropriate
for the type of craft. If any information is already provided in an acceptable or required language by
way of a specific manual(s) for an appliance(s), engine(s), equipment or system provided with the craft,
it is only necessary to refer to this (these) manual(s) in the owner’s manual.
5.2 Introduction to the manual.
Each manual shall have an introductory paragraph informing the owner of his responsibility concerning
the intended use of the craft.
If safety labels are used, their meaning shall be explained in the owner's manual, according to 3.1.
Annex A provides the general introduction to the owner’s manual. It may be modified accordingly to
suit the particular craft.
5.3 General information and craft data
The following information shall be in the owner's manual. List only the relevant items:
a) name of craft manufacturer, company or person responsible for putting the craft on the market;
b) name of the model or type;
c) craft design category/categories, as marked on the builder's plate, and statements explaining the
design category(ies) as follows:
1) A boat given design category A is considered to be designed to operate in winds of less than
Beaufort force 10 and the associated significant wave heights.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on extended voyages, for example across
oceans, but can also occur inshore when unsheltered from the wind and waves for several hundred
nautical miles. Depending on atmospheric conditions, winds can gust to about 32 m/s.
2) A boat given design category B is considered to be designed to operate in winds of Beaufort
force 8 or less and the associated significant waves heights of up to 4 m.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on offshore voyages of sufficient length but
can also occur on coasts where shelter might not always be immediately available. These conditions can
also be experienced on inland seas of sufficient size for the wave height to be generated. Depending on
atmospheric conditions, winds can gust to about 27 m/s.
3) A boat given design category C is considered to be designed to operate in typical steady winds
of Beaufort force 6 or less and the associated significant waves heights of up to 2 m.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on exposed inland waters, in estuaries, and
in coastal waters in moderate weather conditions. Depending on atmospheric conditions, winds can
gust to about 18 m/s.

oSIST prEN ISO 10240:2018
ISO/DIS 10240:2018(E)
4) A boat given design category D is considered to be designed to operate in typical steady winds
of Beaufort force 4 or less and the associated significant waves heights of up to 0,3 m and
occasional waves of 0,5 m height.
NOTE Typically such conditions might be encountered on sheltered inland waters, and in coastal
waters in fine weather. Depending on atmospheric conditions, winds can gust to about 12 m/s.
Watercraft in each design category must be designed and constructed to withstand the parameters in
respect of stability, buoyancy, and other relevant essential requirements, and to have good handling
characteristics;
d) the mass in the light craft condition (m ) (unladen mass of the craft) (kg) according to ISO 8666.
LC
For craft with outboard engines, it should be stated that this mass includes the mass of the heaviest
recommended outboard engine, but in some cases (a small rowing or outboard tender for example)
the craft may be used with or without the outboard. In these cases, it would be useful to also know the
weight without the outboard motor (perhaps to determine if it is light enough to carry on a car roof);
e) maximum recommended load, according to ISO 14946. Include a note to draw attention to
Clause 5.5 – Loading;
f) mass of the craft in the fully loaded condition (kg); which is the sum of the craft's mass, in the light
craft condition, plus the maximum recommended load, a breakdown of the fully loaded mass as
calculated is recommended;
g) main dimensions of the craft: L , B , L , B , and the definition of the dimensions given; these
H H max max
dimensions shall be in accordance with ISO 8666;
h) drafts:
1) maximum height (air draft) if relevant, in the light craft condition;
2) maximum draft(s) in the fully loaded condition;
i) type of main propulsion [power, sail, other (give details)];
j) if the craft is a sailboat, basic information on sail and rigging;
NOTE Information such as main dimensions of sails, reefing system, storm sail dimensions, etc. may
be given.
k) tank capacities:
1) nominal fixed fuel tank(s) capacity (litres), with a statement mentioning that all of its capacity
may not be usable according to trim and loading and that a 20 % reserve should be kept, type
of fuel and position of filling point(s) and draining point (if fitted);
2) fixed fresh water tank(s) capacity (litres), with a statement mentioning that all of its capacity
may not be usable according to trim and loading, and position of filling point(s) and draining
point (if fitted);
3) fixed holding tank(s) capacity (litres), and position of through hull or deck fitting(s) and
draining point (if fitted);
4) fixed oil tank(s) capacity (litres), clean and used, and position of filling and emptying point(s);
5) ballast tanks, supplied or intended by the builder are to be listed in the owner’s manual
(permanently installed and/or portable);
l) builders plate - part of the information is given on the builder's plate affixed on the craft. A full
explanation of this information is also given in the relevant sections of this manual.”
