The wires that supply DC charging current to the batteries are protected by an internal fuse
in the battery charger and two external circuit breakers, one for each battery bank output wire,
located near the battery selector switches. The external breakers protect the DC charging
circuit from the batteries to the charger. The internal fuses in the charger protect the DC
charging circuit from the charger to the batteries.
Microwave
Supplies 110-volt current directly to the microwave oven. See the microwave manual for
more information.
Hot Water Heater
Supplies electrical current directly to the water heater circuit. The water temperature is
automatically controlled by a thermostat in the water heater control panel. Before operation,
you must have water in the water heater (see the water heater manual for more information).
Accessory
Reserved for additional 110-volt equipment. An air conditioner or a water heater are optional
accessories that may be connected to the accessory breaker. See the air conditioner or water
heater manual for more information.

cause the bulb to overheat and burn out.
WHEN REPLACING LIGHT BULBS IN MARINE LIGHT FIXTURES, ALWAYS USE A BULB
WITH THE SAME RATING AS THE ORIGINAL. USING A DIFFERENT BULB COULD CAUSE
THE FIXTURE TO OVERHEAT AND MELT OR SHORT CIRCUIT.
Check all below deck wiring to be sure it is properly supported, that the insulation is sound,

cleaned with sandpaper, or replaced, tightened securely and sprayed with a metal and
electrical protector. Inspect all engine wiring.
Check the electrolyte level in the batteries regularly and add distilled water as necessary. If
the batteries are frequently charged by the automatic battery charger, the electrolyte level will
