Compass
All boats are equipped with a compass on the top
of the instrument panel. The compass cannot be
adjusted accurately at the factory as it must be
compensated for the inuence of the electrical
equipment and electronics unique to your boat.
Therefore, the compass should be adjusted by a
professional after the electronics and additional
electrical accessories are installed and before op-
erating the boat. To adjust the compass for your
area, read the instructions on “Compass Com-
pensation” given to you in the literature packet.

Instrument Maintenance
Electrical protection for instruments and ignition
circuitry is provided by a set of fuses or circuit
breakers located on each engine. If your boat
is equipped with ignition switches, they should
be sprayed periodically with a contact cleaner/
lubricant. The ignition switches and all instru-
ments, controls, etc. should be protected from
the weather when not in use. Excessive exposure
can lead to gauge and ignition switch diculties.
