Maintenance
- Avoid charging batteries to a voltage greater than 14,6 V.
- Keep the batteries clean and dry.
- Regularly check that the terminals and connection cables are clean. If necessary, apply a thin coating of paraffin on the
terminals, to prevent corrosion.
- Regularly recharge all of the batteries onboard.
- Continuously maintain the charged batteries: this determines their length of life.
- Avoid long periods of electrical inactivity (for example when wintering the boat).
Maintenance of lead batteries
- Every year check the water levels in the batteries, and if they are low top them up with distilled water.
- Keep all metallic objects away from the batteries.
- Lead batteries contain sulphuric acid: Be careful not to knock them over whenever handling them.
8.2.2 Battery switch

skin or in your eyes thoroughly rinse it off
immediately with fresh water. See a doctor
immediately.

electric shock.
- Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for
use and maintenance.

the vessel:
risk of complete discharging of

they are live.

the boat's engine is running (risk of serious
damage to the charging circuit).
