- Turn on the circuit breakers for the units to be used by using the
circuit breaker panel.
Then start the appliance with its own controls.
To start 110 V - 220 V elements, wait for 10 to 15 seconds between
the start up of each new component (in order to allow the generator
to become stabilized and be able to give the power necessary for the
starting up).
STOPPING THE 110 V - 220 V POWERED APPLIANCES
To stop the 110 V - 220 V powered appliances (washing machine, etc.)
it is advisable to do as follows:
- Stop the appliance with its own controls.
To stop 110 V - 220 V elements, wait for 10 to 15 seconds between
the stop of each new component (in order to allow the generator to
become stabilized).
- Turn off the unit circuit breakers by using circuit breaker panel.
- Turn to OFF the 110 V - 220 V source selector (generator or shore

CHECKING OF THE 110 V - 220 V CONSUMING APPLIANCES
SELECTION PANEL (in the starboard hull companionway):
The panel is composed of selectors allowing to choose the electrical
power source for the different 110 V - 220 V consuming appliances
on board.
RIGHT-HAND SIDE SELECTOR:
- allows to use the appliances requiring a 110 V - 220 V current co-
ming from the generator, the shore power or the inverter.
LEFT-HAND SIDE SELECTOR:
- allows to use the air conditioning powered by a 110 V - 220 V current
coming from the generator or from the shore power.

In order to be able to use the 110 V - 220 V powered appliances
(washing machine, watermaker, etc), it is advisable:
- Make sure that the circuit breakers are switched OFF on the 110 V
- 220 V circuit breaker panel.
- Switch on the 110 V - 220 V source (start the generator or connect a

RECOMMENDATION
Keep an eye on the charge of the batteries when you
use the inverter.
WARNING
Before you turn the 110 V - 220 V source selector to
OFF, make sure no other appliance is working (danger
of an electric arc that would destroy the changeover
switch and risk of damaging the generator).
