12 Volt Accessory Receptacle
NOTICE
DO NOT insert a cigarette lighter into this
receptacle. Damage to the unit & system could
occur.
Your boat is equipped with a 12 volt accessory
receptacle located on the aft wall of the console
storage tray (See fig. 2.10.1). It is a DC (cigarette
lighter) style receptacle to be used with any 12 volt
accessories using this type of plug. The receptacle is
made of corrosion resistant marine grade materials
and has a moisture proof cap. The receptacle is
protected by a 10 amp fuse located in the fuse box
on the upper aft wall of the console interior.. Be sure
to use accessories that do not exceed the rated
capacity of the circuit, (10 amps) or the breaker
will trip.

Battery Switch

The battery switch, located on the component board
on the forward wall of the console interior, allows
you to control the delivery of DC power from the
battery to the engine as well as allowing the alternator
to charge the battery. Your battery selector switch
has two settings, "ON" and "OFF", "ON" gives you
power from the battery. "OFF" you have no power
to the engine. Remember to turn the battery selector
switch to "ON" before you attempt to start your
engine.
NOTE: The bilge pump cannot be turned off with the
battery selector switch.

correct the problem before resetting the breaker. A
breaker which trips repeatedly should be examined

the cause of the trip.
