Operating Information
13. 12 VOLT ACCESSORY POWER
RECEPTACLE -
Your Cobalt boat is equipped with
a 12 volt accessory power receptacle. The
receptacle provides electricity to operate 12 VDC
accessory items. Limit the accessory to 10 Amps.
14. IGNITION SAFETY SWITCH
Your Cobalt boat is equipped with an ignition safety
switch located on the lower lip of the helm. The
ignition safety switch and lanyard will stop the
engine(s) in case of an emergency. Attach the
lanyard to the boat operator whenever the engine is
running, but be aware there will be a loss of boat
control if the switch is activated. If the operator is
thrown from the seat or moves too far from the
helm, the lanyard will become disconnected from
the ignition safety switch, shutting off the engines.

Avoid injury, death or damage to
equipment. Do not allow your boat to be
operated without the proper use of the
ignition safety switch and lanyard.

DANGER
Avoid injury or death. Attach the ignition
safety switch lanyard to the operator
before starting the engine(s). This will
prevent the boat from becoming a
runaway if the operator is accidentally
thrown away from the helm. The ignition
safety switch can only be effective when
it is in good working condition. Observe
the following:
• Do not remove or modify the ignition
safety switch and/or lanyard.
• The lanyard must be free from
obstructions that could interfere with
its operation.
• DO NOT operate the boat if the ignition
safety switch does not function
properly.
• Attach the ignition safety switch
lanyard to a secure place on your
clothing, your arm or leg while
operating.
• DO NOT attach the lanyard to clothing
that could tear loose. DO NOT route
the lanyard where it could become
entangled, preventing it from
functioning.
• Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard
during normal operation. Loss of
engine power means loss of most
steering control. Also, without engine
power, the boat could slow rapidly.
This could cause occupants and
objects in the boat to be thrown
forward.
