The battery installed in your boat by your Chaparral dealer supplies
your boat with DC current for lights, engine starting, and acces-
sories. When the engine is running, the alternator supplies the
power needed to keep the batteries charged. Lights and acces-
sories draw power from the batteries.
Battery Selector Switch
Some models have a battery selector switch as optional equipment.
If your boat has a battery selector switch, you will find it in the
engine compartment or stern area of the boat. Leave switch on
while motor is running or damage will occur to alternator.
On/Off Switch with One Battery
This switch has two positions:
OFF Power supplied to automatic bilge pump, CO detector (if so
equipped), stereo memory, and optional corrosion protection
system.
ON Power supplied to entire boat
To start engine, place switch to ON position. Power
is now supplied to your boat from the battery. Then
start engine. Leave switch in this position to fully
recharge battery.
Note: If engine is off and you are using boat
accessories, you need to start your engine occasionally to
allow engine alternator to fully recharge battery. Otherwise you
may drain battery and you will not have enough power to start
engine.
Single Selector Switch with Two Batteries
A selector switch with two batteries is optional on some models.
This battery selector switch has four positions:
OFF Power supplied to automatic bilge pump, CO detector (if so
equipped), stereo memory, and optional corrosion protection
system.
1. Use only Number 1 battery
ALL Use Number 1 and Number 2 batteries
2. Use only Number 2 battery
Recommended settings are as follows:
1. When boat is not in use or power is not required,
turn the switch to OFF. The only power supplied at
this setting is the automatic bilge pumps, carbon
monoxide detector (if equipped), stereo memory,
and optional corrosion protection system.
2. To start the engine, place switch in Number 1 posi-
tion. With this setting, power will now be supplied to
your boat from the Number 1 battery. This will allow
the engine alternator to charge both batteries.
3. For cabin power with engine off, place the switch
in the Number 2 position. Power will now be sup-
plied to your boat from the Number 2 battery.
Note: Chaparral does not recommend leaving the switch in the
ALL position when the engine is off. This will drain both batter-
ies and you will not have a starting battery.
4. If one battery is low, you still have the option of
starting the engine from the other battery.
Example 1: If the Number 1 battery is low, place the
switch in the Number 2 position. Then start the engine.
