Carbon Monoxide Detector

A carbon monoxide detector is included with your generator package. This monitor serves as
a warning system for exposure to poisonous carbon monoxide fumes. Carbon monoxide is a
colorless odorless gas produced in the exhaust of combustion engines. It can accumulate in
amounts that may be hazardous or fatal. This accumulation may occur very quickly in a boat
with a defective exhaust or one in which the exhaust is re-entering the boat due to wind
currents, low pressure areas in the cabin, or other means of air movement. A CO monitor
provides an extra measure of safety, but does not replace the need to regularly check the entire
generator exhaust system including the exhaust manifold, hose and muffler condition, hose
connection joint, etc. For proper operation and maintenance, refer to the literature provided by
the manufacturer in the Owner's Packet.

AC Transfer Switch

The AC transfer switch is located in the cabin at the bottom of the AC/DC panel. This switch
permits you to operate your AC accessories by either shore power or generator. This switch
prevents the operation of the shore power and the generator simultaneously.

Blower

A blower is included with the generator. It provides ventilation to the engine compartment and
should run at least 4 minutes before starting the generator. Using the blower does not take the
place of checking the engine compartment by sight and smell for gasoline vapors. The blower
is located beneath the aft drop-in box and can be reached by removing the battery select box
on the port side of the cockpit.

Generator Start/Stop Switch

The generator start/stop switch is located in the cabin at the bottom of the AC/DC panel. This
switch permits you to start and stop your generator from the cabin.

Battery Charger

This accessory is located in the aft rigging compartment near the batteries. The generator must
be running or the dockside power must be connected for the charger to work. To activate the
charger, turn the AC panel breaker switch to the "on" position. The charger has a built-in
isolator that senses the charging needs of all the batteries and distributes charge accordingly.
At the point that all batteries are nearly fully restored, the charger will automatically reduce
the current being sent to the batteries to a maintenance level. See the charger Operation
Manual in your Owner's Packet for further information.

Stove

Located at the galley, the 330 stove is a glass dual element cooktop which operates by AC
current only. Therefore the generator must be operating or the dockside power must be
connected prior to use. When using your stove, release the four "pop-up" retainers to hold
cooking containers in place. Please review the factory provided information in your Owner's
Packet for instructions on safe and proper use of this unit.
