2.2.1.2 Auto Sump - Forward and Aft
This breaker controls the flow of electricity to the forward and aft sump
pumps. Because the sumps are located below the boat’s water line, the
sump pumps are needed to pump shower waste water, sink waste water
and air conditioning condensation overboard or into the optional grey
water tank. Each sump pump is activated automatically by a float switch
whenever water within the sump rises above a predetermined level.
Switch the Auto Sump - Forward circuit breaker “ON” before using the
air conditioning or showers and sinks in the port and starboard heads.
Switch the Auto Sump - Aft circuit breaker “ON” before using the op-
tional crew quarters’ air conditioning, shower or sink.
2.2.1.3 CO Detector
Always activate the CO detectors when the boat’s engines or generator
are running. Carbon monoxide is dangerous. Refer to Section “1.6 Car-
bon Monoxide (CO) Warnings” for information on minimizing, detecting
and controlling carbon monoxide accumulation.
Carver has installed several carbon monoxide (CO) detectors on your
boat for your safety. The CO detectors continuously check the air in the
boat’s cabin for the presence of carbon monoxide. These breakers 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. If
you hear this alarm, determine the cause of the CO accumulation 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.
2.2.1.4 Stereo Memory
This breaker controls the flow of electricity to the optional bridge stereo
system. When the bridge stereo is installed, this breaker should always
be “ON” to maintain the information programmed into the stereo’s
memory. If this breaker is ever switched “OFF,” you will have to repro-
gram the stereo. Refer to the OEM information for details on program-
ming the stereo.
2.2.1.5 High Water Alarm
This breaker controls the flow of electricity to the high bilge water
alarm. Refer to 4.4 Bilge System for a description of the high bilge
