2.2.1.4 Shower Sump
This breaker controls the flow of electricity to the sump pump. Because the
sump is located below the boat’s water line, the sump pump is needed to
pump used (grey) water from the head sink and shower, as well as air
conditioning condensation overboard. The sump pump is activated auto-
matically by a float switch whenever water within the sump rises above a
predetermined level. Make sure the Shower Sump circuit breaker is “ON”
before using the shower, head sink or air conditioning.
2.2.1.5 Accessory Main
This is the “house” battery master disconnect switch. Refer to 2.1.2
“House” Battery for a description of this master disconnect switch.
2.2.1.6 CO Detector
Always activate the CO detectors when the boat’s engines or generator
are running. Carbon monoxide is dangerous. Refer to Section 1 of this
Owner’s Guide for information on minimizing, detecting and controlling
carbon monoxide accumulation.
Carver has installed carbon monoxide (CO) detectors on your boat for
your safety. The CO detectors monitor the air throughout the boat’s cabin
for the presence of carbon monoxide. The CO Detector circuit breaker
must be “ON” for the CO detectors to operate.
When the CO detectors are operating, they alert you to the presence of
carbon monoxide in the cabin by emitting a loud, high pitched sound. When
you hear this alarm, determine the cause and correct it immediately.
There is a test button on each CO detector. Test each unit on a weekly
basis. If you suspect that a CO detector is faulty, have your dealer repair
or replace it immediately. Refer to 1.6 Carbon Monoxide (CO) Warn-
ings for more information on CO.
2.2.1.7 Auto Bilge Pump - 1, 2
These breakers control the flow of electricity to the bilge pumps. Each
pump is activated automatically by a float switch whenever water within
the bilge rises to a predetermined level. These breakers must be “ON”
whenever the boat is in the water.
NOTE: Periodically test each bilge pump by lifting its float. The pump
should turn on when the float is lifted.
