2870 WALKAROUND
12-3
volt AC current is provided by the refrigerator circuit breaker on the 110-volt panel, the refrigerator
automatically switches to AC power.
Care should be exercised while operating the refrigerator on 12-volt power without the engines
running. It draws a substantial amount of current and can severely drain a battery through extended
use. The refrigerator door has a special latch to secure the door while under way, make sure the
door is properly secured whenever the boat is moving. Refer to the refrigerator owner’s manual
for additional operating and maintenance instructions.
12.3 Air Conditioner (Option)
The air conditioning unit is usually the reverse cycle type and operates on 110 volt AC power. The
unit is equipped with reverse cycle heat and can be operated as a cooling or heating unit. It is
protected by the accessory breaker in the 110-volt breaker panel. To operate, make sure the thru
hull valve for the air conditioner raw water supply pump is on. Turn the air conditioner breaker
to the “ON” position. The unit will then be controlled by the air conditioning control panel in the
cabin. When activated, water should continuously flow from the overboard drain thru hull. See
the air conditioner owner’s manual for additional operating and maintenance instructions.
Note: Air conditioners use surface water as a cooling medium. The boat must be in the
water and the raw water supply system must be properly activated prior to use.
Operation without proper cooling will cause the air conditioning circuit breaker to
trip and could cause system damage. Always check for proper water flow out of the
air conditioning pump discharge thru hull when the air conditioner is operating.
12.4 Galley and Sink
The galley is equipped with storage and a
fresh water sink. Water is supplied to the sink
by a 12-volt pump located below the center
hatch in the bridge deck. When activated by
the water pressure breaker in the cabin DC
breaker panel, the water system will operate
much like the water system in a home. An
automatic pressure sensor keeps the system
pressurized. The sink drains overboard through
the shower and cabin drain system.

information on the freshwater system. Galley
