2902 Walkaround • Owner’s Manual Supplement Chapter 12: Electrical System
Battery Charger (If Equipped)
Thoroughly read and understand the battery charger manual (provided in your owner’s packet) before using the bat-
tery charger for the first time.
• The battery charger will charge the boat’s batteries whenever the boat is plugged into 120V/60Hz shore power
and the "BATTERY CHARGER" AC breaker is On.
• The battery switch can be in any position during charging.
• You may use DC powered electrical systems, such as the lights and stereo when the battery charger is On, but
there will be a corresponding drop in charger performance.
12-Volt Accessory Outlet
• Your boat is equipped with a 12-volt accessory outlet at the helm.
• The outlet can be used with any 12-volt device which draws 15 amps or less.
• The 12-volt accessory outlet is protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker on the main circuit breaker panel.
ENGINE & ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
NEVER run the boat’s engine and the battery charger at the same time.
CAUTION
!
The battery charging systems (alternator and battery charger) installed on your boat are
designed to charge conventional lead-acid batteries. Before installing gel-cell or other new tech-
nology batteries, consult with the battery manufacturer about charging system requirements.
CAUTION
!
DO NOT use the 12-volt accessory outlet with a cigarette or cigar lighter. High temperatures
may melt the outlet.
