Cockpit Panel
Switches are also located in the aft cockpit
on the port side as described below:
Livewell
This switch activates the livewell circulating
pump that supplies water to the livewell.
Washdown Pump
Pressing this switch activates the raw water
washdown pump. The pump is the pressure
demand type, protected by a circuit breaker
on the MDP and an automatically resetting
breaker on the pump motor.
Please refer to the Plumbing Systems chap-
ter for more information on the livewell and
washdown systems.
Fishbox Macerator
The fishbox macerator switch is a momen-
tary switch that activates the overboard mac-
erator pump for the fishbox. A circuit breaker
on the MDP protects the pump.
Cabin Panel
Switches on the cabin panel operate the
interior and accent lighting for the cabin.
Head Compartment Panel
Head Lts
Activates the head compartment lighting.
Electric Head (Optional)
Operates the electric head. Refer to the
head owner's manual for operating instruc-
tions.
Head Macerator
Activates the macerator for the holding tank
overboard discharge. Refer to the Interior
Equipment Section of this manual for addi-
tional information. The breaker should be in
the "OFF" position except when pumping out
the holding tank.
4.4 AC System
The AC system uses shore power or the
optional generator. It is equipped with on-
board galvanic isolation. The galvanic isola-
tor is equipped with a system status monitor.
Refer to the galvanic isolator owner's man-
ual.
AC accessories use individual circuit break-
ers located in the AC panel in the cabin. The
main breaker in the panel protects the sys-
tem from an overload and the reverse polar-
ity light indicates any problems due to an
improper shore power supply. Ground fault
interrupters protect against electrical shock
and protect all AC outlets in the cabin. A pro-
vided cord set supplies power from the
shore power outlet to the boat’s AC show
power inlet.
!
CAUTION
Halogen lighting contains a filament
bulb that generates intense heat, is
pressurized and could shatter if
scratched or damaged. Protect glass
halogen-cycle bulbs from contact with
liquids when operating.
!
DANGER
To reduce the risk of electrical shock
in wet weather, avoid making contact
with the shore cable or making a con-
nection to a live shore outlet. Never
spray water on electrical cables while
washing down decks.
