36 CHAPTER 2: FEATURES / SYSTEMS

Generator Power (Option)

Your yacht may be equipped with an optional generator. The generator is located in the aft machinery compartment.
Access to the generator compartment is through the aft cockpit hatches. Prior to initially operating your optional
generator read the generator operation manual for pre-start checks and break-in procedures. The manuals are
included in your yacht's owner's packet.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD!
Generators are a source of dangerous carbon monoxide gas (CO). Check the genera-
tor exhaust system for leaks before each use.
Observe the following about your generator:
• Polarity has been established in the installation of the generator(s),
therefore the polarity lights will not function in this mode.
• Fuel to run the main generator is supplied from the port fuel tank.
• In addition to servicing the filters attached to the generator(s), the
filters/separators (located near the fuel line valves) should be ser-
viced as described in the manufacturer's manual.
• The coolant mixture installed at the factory consists of equal parts
of water and antifreeze (Ethylene Glycol). The coolant bottle for
the generator is located inside port generator compartment hatch.
• Check the generator's seawater strainer for leaks and/or debris
before each operation.
• Oil pressure, water temperature, and voltage gauges are provided
on the generator control panel, inside the AC/DC cabinet on the
port side of the salon. These gauges monitor the engine functions
of your generator.
