2. Toggle the AERATOR switch at the bow panel to ON.
The livewell pump will start, and the livewell will fill with
water up to the level of the overflow.
3. Toggle the switch OFF when the livewell is filled.
Operate the livewell aerator as needed to freshen and
maintain the oxygen supply by aerating the water in the
livewell.
To ensure that your livewell remains clean and the water in
it remains fresh, empty the livewell after you have finished
using it. To drain the livewell, remove the drain plug in the
bottom. Because water will drain only to the water level
outside your boat, drain the livewell after you remove your
boat from the water. If you are leaving your boat in the
water, insert the drain plug and bail the remaining water
from the livewell.
IMPORTANT: If water in the livewell system freezes,
hoses can break as the frozen water expands. Be sure to
empty the livewell completely during freezing weather.
Do not operate the livewell pump if it is not pumping water.
Operating the pump dry can overheat its water-cooled
motor and damage the unit. If water does not come out of
the aerator nozzle:
1. Check the livewell fuse on the bow panel. Replace the
fuse if necessary.
2. Make sure the pump is not clogged. If the pump or
thru-hull fitting is clogged, you may be able to clear the
obstruction by forcing water back through the pump.
Using a garden hose, direct water flow into the pump
outlet until water flows freely from the thru-hull inlet.
3. Make sure current is reaching the pump. Check and
tighten connections. Make sure wires are not broken.
If you still have problems with the pump, contact your
Glastron dealer.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION
(SKI'N FISH MODELS)
1. Before using the ski tow bar make sure that it is
securely fastened to the boat.
2. To prevent outboard motor damage when using the ski
tow bar, make sure that the ski rope does not come in
contact with the outboard motor.
3. When using the ski tow bar, all passengers must stay
clear of the ski rope.
4. Only use the fishing seats (mounted in the bow or
cockpit) if the boat is at a no wake speed or stopped.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR
CRUISER MODELS
This section contains additional information concerning
major systems and components that are or can be
installed on your Glastron Sport Cruiser.

12 Volt DC Electrical System

Your boat's 12 Volt DC system obtains its power from a bat-
tery. The battery is charged through the engine-driven
alternator and/or an AC battery charger. The voltmeter on the
helm dash instrument panel indicates the charging level of
the battery. Power from the battery is supplied through either
a battery isolator or a dual battery switch. It is then routed to
the instrument panel and DC distribution panel located in the
galley. The DC circuit breakers on the instrument panel and
DC distribution panel have indicator lights and operate all 12
volt equipment onboard.
