NOTICE:
Do not use a battery with wing nut connectors; use hex nuts. Battery cables should
always be tightened with a wrench.
Do not use deep cycle batteries on EFI engines. A deep cycle battery, while it may have
enough cold cranking amps (CCA), will cause problems with EFI engines. The correct
battery for EFI engines is a standard marine starting battery.
NOTE: Batteries are not provided by Monterey Boats. The above battery information was obtained
from installation and owners manuals published by Mercury Marine and Volvo Penta of the
Americas. For sourcing and additional battery information, contact your local Monterey dealer.
Typical labels used to identify battery cables and fuel lines are shown below.
Positive battery cables are red. Negative battery cables are yellow or occasionally black.
