Generator
YOU MUST NOT RUN THE GENERATOR WHEN UNDERWAY.
Hakuna Matata IV is fitted with its own Onan generator which will run the 110v outlets, the air
conditioning and will also charge the batteries instead of the engine. The generator is in the
cockpit floor locker and is self-regulating and therefore there are no daily checks to perform.
Starting the Generator:
Make sure the 110v systems are off prior to starting the generator (Make sure all air
conditioning units are off). Should be done prior to departure.
Ensure that you have switched from shore power to generator power on the touch display at
the 12V panel.
Press the Prime switch for 5 seconds.
Press and hold the Start button until you hear the generator start.
Allow the generator to warm up for 5 minutes and then gradually load up the system (battery
charger and air conditioning units), adding one load every 2 minutes.
Stopping the generator
Turn off all 110v systems (air conditioning units and battery charger).
Allow the generator to run for 5 mins without load to cool down.
Push down quickly on the bottom of the switch and release.
The generator will shut down.
