12 Volt Receptacle (Optional)

cell phone, operate a hand held remote spotlight, etc.
Circuit Breakers
Circuit breakers and/or fuses protect the wiring on your 20 Sport. In the event a device stops working, check to
see if the circuit breaker is tripped or if the fuse is blown. Breakers are installed in the following locations:
•
The main breaker is located below the hatch that is installed on top of the starboard molded jump
seat.
•
Breakers and/or fuses for the aft bilge, stereo and accessory are located above the main breaker.
•
Additional breaker switches are also located on the switch panel below the individual switches.
A tripped breaker will protrude or move from its set position indicating that the circuit has been overloaded. Turn
off the device(s) on the circuit, then reset the breaker by pushing in once or by returning a breaker switch to the
on position. If the breaker does not reset or if it resets and then trips again after the device is turned back on,
then a short circuit exists or your device may be damaged, overloaded, or faulty. Correct the problem and then
reset the breaker.
If the breaker continues to trip and you are certain the device, switch and wiring are in good repair; either the
breaker is faulty or it is too small for the load. Reduce the load or replace the breaker.
