Circuit Breaker(s)
Circuit breakers protect the labeled circuit. These circuits are protected from overload
by the use of circuit breakers. In the event of an overload or short circuit, circuit
breaker will trip. If a circuit continuously overloads under normal operating conditions,
contact your CROWNLINE dealer immediately. Some models have individual circuits
protected with a circuit breaker located next to the switch. To reset a tripped circuit
breaker, switch OFF the circuit, wait about one minute for the breaker to cool, push
the breaker button fully, and switch ON the circuit.
NOTE:
The electrical system is designed to protect you from short circuits and
overload. Any modifications to the system, such as adding electrical
accessories, should be done by a qualified technician.
Compass
Various factors affect the operation of the compass, such as local magnetic variation
and deviation (induced needle deflection caused by metal components and the
operation of electrical equipment on-board your craft). Each compass must be
compensated to adjust for the specific characteristics of each craft. It is vitally
important you have your compass professionally compensated before using it for
marine navigation. Contact your CROWNLINE dealer regarding compass
compensation.
IMPORTANT:
The compass should be re-compensated when having additional
electrical equipment installed on your craft.
Courtesy Light Switch
The courtesy light switch controls the ON or OFF operation mode of the courtesy

Depth Sounder
The depth sounder allows you to monitor the lake, river or ocean floor. Some of the
options are: shallow water, depth, keel depth and units. Refer to the manufacturer’s
literature for more detailed information.
Docking Lights Switch
The docking lights switch controls the ON or OFF operation mode of the courtesy
lights.
Drive Unit Trim Switch
The drive unit trim switch activates the power trim feature of the engine. Push and
hold the switch UP or DOWN until the drive unit is at the desired angle. Use this
switch in combination with the trim gauge to monitor the optimum performance
location for the load.
