Bennington Owners Manual 25
Typical Bennington Battery Storage Box:
This picture shows a battery box on a “50 & 80 Series”
pontoon. The battery location will vary depending on
the model of boat. For example, if you have a “75 Series”
model, your battery location is in the privacy area of your boat.
Electrical Switches:
Electrical switches control the power supply to your boat components. Switches may be 2-position
(on/off) or 3-position (on/off/on) with the center position being off. For a 3-position switch, the
switch position determines which components are being powered. All switches have a push button
reset breaker next to, below or above the switch. The breaker protects electrical components from
damage by power surges. If you reset a breaker and it immediately trips again, do not attempt to
reset it a second time. Retripping indicates a possible electrical problem that needs dealer attention.
If you replace a breaker, replace it with the same AMP size breaker.
