Battery Switches
The engine cranking battery switch is located in
the starboard sump located on the battery man-
agement panel. To access the panel lift up the star-
board aft seat. Here you will see 1 of 2 different
battery switches.
Standard battery switch designates an "off" and
"on" position. To start the engine position the bat-
tery switch at the "on" detent. Power is now avail-
able to the dash and to start the engine.
The engine battery switch is protected by a break-
er. Be sure to turn the battery switch to the off
TYPICAL OFF-ON BATTERY SWITCH
position when leaving the vessel. As a note never
turn the battery switch to the "off" position with the
engine running.
Optional dual battery switch designates "off", "on"
and "combine batteries" positions. This particular
battery switch is connected to dual batteries and
this set-up supplies additional reserve capacity to
run extra accessories and to supply cranking am-
perage to start the engine with the other battery at
a low charge condition.
To use this feature position turn the battery switch
knob to the "combine batteries" detent (yellow la-
TYPICAL DUAL BATTERY SWITCH
beled area). At this point you can start the engine.
As this particular battery switch features a "make
before break" footprint once the engine starts you
can reposition the battery switch to the "on" detent
to revert back to one battery for engine starting.
It is recommended not to leave the dual battery
switch in the "combine batteries" position as un-
der the right conditions a severe discharge could
result in both batteries becoming discharged.
