UNNING
The above is not strictly true, you can run the inverter for a while when the engine
is not running, but only if it has a light load (e.g. charging phones). And only if
battery capacity is greater than 80% (see battery capacity). Even then, not for long.
Otherwise it will drain the battery & that will damage the batteries.
Always turn the inverter off at night.
Shore Power
When in a marina or sometimes when mooring at private moorings, you might have the luxury of
shore power.
Take one or both of the blue power cables from under the stern
steps (there should be 2). Plug one end into the input plug at the
rear base of the engine consol.
The other end plugs into the supply.
Switch the A.C. control switch to position 1 ‘Landline’.
Remember to remove cable & pay for it when leaving.
There is also a 13A plug to shore cable adaptor, just in case you find a friendly native.
