Battery System

Never disconnect battery cables when the engine is running. Dam-

age to the electrical system may result.

Depending upon the model, your boat can have one, two, or three batteries associated with it. The battery is

used to supply DC power to the boat. All marine batteries provide a high capacity plus cold cranking per-

formance. The batteries are not maintenance free and require periodic maintenance.

• Maintain the water level in the battery cells.

• Keep the terminals clean.

• Keep the case clean.

• Keep the battery charged.

Many variables affect the life of a battery. Some of these are, but not limited to:

• Usage

• Temperature

•Charging

•Age

Always inspect the condition of the battery. When inspecting ALWAYS utilize proper safety precautions.

A low water level may cause the batteries to fail or possibly explode. Therefore take cor-

rective action immediately. If you must replace one battery, replace them all.

If there is more than one battery on your boat they can be broken down in the following manner:

For two batteries:

• Port start battery

• Starboard start battery

For three batteries:

• Port start battery

• Starboard start battery

•House
