8.5 Convertible V-Berth and Table
The V-berth is equipped with a table mounted on a removable support leg that allows the dinette to be converted
to a berth. The table leg, when removed, can be stored in the aft hanging locker. A filler board is supplied
to make up the berth and is stored against the wall in the aft berth. To install the filler board, place the protective
cover over the table and lower the table by removing the table support leg. Position the filler board next to
the table and secure the straps to the snaps on the sides of the V-berth. Place the filler cushion on the table
and filler board to complete the berth conversion.
If the boat is equipped with the optional air conditioner, it will be mounted in the forward part of the V-berth
storage compartment. Be careful when storing items in this compartment when the air conditioner is installed.
Items stored on or immediately next to the air conditioning unit could cause damage to the air conditioner or
be damaged by heat or condensation.
8.6 Carbon Monoxide Detector
The Safety chapter in this manual contains important information on carbon monoxide and the carbon
monoxide detector. Read the section entitled "Carbon Monoxide" in the Safety chapter of this Owner's
Manual.
8.7 Air Conditioner (Optional)
The air conditioning unit is the reverse cycle type and operates on AC power. It is located in the storage
compartment under the V-berth. The unit is equipped with reverse cycle heat and can be operated as a cooling
or heating unit. It is protected by a breaker in the AC 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.
Air locks can occur in the air conditioning water supply system at the time of launching. If your boat has been
recently launched and water is not flowing from the overboard
thru-hull when the air conditioner is activated, air may have to be
purged from the system. This can be achieved by making sure the
valve at the air conditioning pump intake thru-hull is open. Then
run the boat at cruise speed for several minutes. A scoop attached
to the intake thru-hull fitting will pressurize the system and force
the air through the pump. See the air conditioner owner's manual
for additional operating and maintenance instructions.
The cold air return is located under the V-berth. Do not obstruct
this area to obtain maximum efficiency for the air conditioning
unit. To avoid damage to the air conditioning unit, no items
should be stored in this compartment.
