Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft, in collaboration with
the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 464, Small Craft, in
accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 10240:2019), of which it constitutes a
minor revision.
The main changes are as follows:
— editorial changes throughout the document;
— the Normative references have been updated;
— Figures 1 and 2 have been updated;

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 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.
