The circuit breakers are installed next to the battery switch panel and are labeled aft bilge, forward bilge,
trim tabs, stereo and accessory.
Place all the switches in the off position.
Turn the ignition key on (both ignition keys for a twin engine application) and ensure that
the engine will not turn over.
Turn the port battery switch to the one (1) position on the switch and turn the port ignition
key to start the port engine.
Turn off the port engine ignition key and the port battery switch.
Then turn the starboard battery switch to the two (2) position on the switch and turn the
starboard ignition key to start the starboard engine.
Never switch battery positions while the engines are running.
To ensure that the battery switch/switches will turn off, place the switch/switches in the off position and try
to start up the engine/engines. When the switch/switches is/are off, you should not be able to start the
engine/engines.
Caution:
To avoid possible alternator/battery damage on twin-engine installations, make
sure that the dual battery switches are never left so both engines are connected together,
(i.e., never leave a switch on “BOTH” or “ALL” or “1 and 2”). The preferred switch
position is port engine to position one (1) on the port battery switch and starboard engine
to position two (2) on the starboard battery switch.

An optional 12-volt receptacle can be installed on the console. It is easily accessible and can be used to
