WARNING!
Battery electrolyte is a corrosive acid and should be
handled with care. If you spill or splash electrolyte on
any part of the body, immediately flush the exposed area
with liberal amounts of water and seek medical atten-
tion as soon as possible.
NOTE! It is important that the battery connections are cor-
rect. The negative battery cable must be attached
to the negative terminal (–) on the battery and the
engine’s positive cable must be attached to the
positive terminal (+) on the battery.
DANGER!
Failure to follow the safety precautions below may re-
sult in electrical sparks igniting fuel vapors, and cause
fire or explosion.
Operate boat’s bilge blower for at least 5 minutes. Open
engine cover or hatch and check the boat’s bilge area
for gasoline fumes. If any fumes can be detected by
smell, do not operate the boat until the source can be
found, the spill cleaned up, and the cause corrected.
Do not connect cables to battery until all other electrical
connections have been made.
Make sure the ignition switch is
OFF before removing or
installing electrical equipment, checking any electrical
connections, or installing battery cables.
See your Volvo Penta dealer for recommendations on in-
stalling multiple batteries.
NOTE! When replacing your battery, read and understand
the information supplied with it before you begin
installation.
1. Batteries must be heavy-duty and constructed for ma-
rine use. They can be either vented/refillable,
maintenance-free, or deep-cycle with a CCA or MICA
rating. Refer to
Specifications pages for the correct bat-
tery sizes.
2. Use bolts and nuts to secure battery cables to the bat-
tery terminals. Do not use wing nuts to secure battery
cables, even if they were supplied with the battery.
3. Loose battery connections can cause damage to the
engine’s electrical system.
4. Service electrical components only while the motor is not
running. Be careful when identifying positive and nega-
tive battery cables and terminals. If you touch the wrong
terminal with a battery cable, even briefly, the motor’s
charging system could be damaged.
WARNING!
The battery terminal connections must always be insu-
lated. If the battery mounting system does not cover the
connections, install protective covers. This will help pre-
vent shorting or arcing at the battery terminals.
DANGER!
Fumes vented during battery charging may cause an
explosion. Do not expose battery to electrical sparks or
an open flame. Do not use jumper cables and a booster
battery to start engine. If the battery compartment is not
properly ventilated, remove battery from boat to re-
charge.
If the battery has become discharged (“dead”) for no appar-
ent reason, check all electrical system components for mal-
function, or for a switch left in the ON position, before install-
ing a recharged battery.
DANGER!
Failure to follow these safety precautions may result in
electrical sparks igniting fuel vapors causing fire or ex-
plosion. Operate the boat’s bilge blower for at least 5
minutes. Open the engine cover or hatch and check the
boat’s bilge area for gasoline fumes. If any fumes can
be detected by smell, do not operate the boat until you
find the source, clean up the spill, and correct the cause.
Do not connect cables to battery until all other electrical
connections have been made. Make sure the ignition
switch is OFF before removing or installing electrical
equipment, checking any electrical connections, or in-
stalling battery cables.
