This section discusses the performance controls. On some models,
information is provided via traditional gauges and switches. On many
models, however, this information (as well as some convenience and
support data described elsewhere in this owner’s manual) is given
through a video display gauge. Several different video display gauges
are mounted in the boats, depending on the model. Descriptions of
the functionality of those gauges follows in the next section. Please
note that some refinement of these gauges was in progress at press
time. Therefore, the gauge in your boat may have some minor vari-
ances to what is described in this manual. MasterCraft strongly en-
courages you to review ALL instrumentation with your authorized
MasterCraft dealer prior to operating the boat for the first time, and
at any time during ownership of the boat if you are uncertain as to
proper and applicable functionality.

Controls
Battery Charger
(Where Equipped)
As a convenience, a battery charger is offered as an option. The charger is
designed to recharge the batteries and also to extend the battery’s life in applica
-
tions where it is stored for long periods of time. These are three-stage electronic
chargers, completely automatic, lightweight, and silent. Unlike most automotive
chargers, this charger will not boil off the electrolytes in properly installed and
maintained batteries. The red and green LED lights, which are mounted on the
charger face, indicate when the unit is recharging and maintaining the batteries.
Before charging a battery, do not operate the charger if the cables or an
LED is damaged. Be sure that all accessories are OFF. If the battery or batter
-
ies must be removed from the product, always remove the grounded terminal
from the battery first. Be sure that the area around the battery is well ventilat
-
ed while the battery is being charged. Also ensure that the battery terminals
are free of corrosion. (See the
Scheduled Maintenance
section of this Owner’s
Manual for additional battery information.)
If the battery charger ever appears to be malfunctioning, see your autho
-
rized MasterCraft dealer for assistance.
When charging, batteries generate small amounts of dangerous hy-
drogen gas. This gas is highly explosive. Keep all sparks, flames and
smoking well away from the area. Failure to follow instructions when
charging a battery may cause an electrical charge or even an explo-
sion of the battery, which could result in death or serious injury.
Cruise Control Gauge
(Where Equipped)
Boats equipped with cruise control systems come with short manuals that describe how to operate and
maintain the cruise control system. Refer to the appropriate manual prior to operation of the system.
Boats featuring the “simple” cruise system function the same as an automobile with an ON/OFF switch
and +/- to increase or decrease speed. For boats equipped with dual engines, see also the
Engine Syn-
chronizing Switch
instructions of this section. The engine synchronizing switch must be ON for the cruise
to work on dual-engine boats. Also review the operating instructions from the cruise control provider.
