Your boat uses a battery selector switch located on
the component board in the port bilge. The battery
switch can be accessed through the hatch in the port
stern deck.
The battery selector switch allows you to control the
delivery of DC power from the two batteries (See
page 3-7 of this manual for proper operation).
Battery maintenance should include:
• Inspect the battery and charging system
before each use for loose connections or
wiring.
• If not using a sealed battery, check and maintain
the water level. USE distilled water ONLY.
• Coat the terminals with dielectric grease.
• Keep the battery safe and dry.
• Remove the battery from the boat during cold
weather or long term storage.
