CHAPTER 3: COMPONENTS / SYSTEMS
Electrical System
We strongly recommend that you thoroughly read and understand the elec-
trical sections of the owner’s manual and all accessory manuals included in
your boat’s owner’s packet. Wiring schematics are provided in chapter 5 of this
supplement.
DANGER
FIRE, SHOCK & EXPLOSION HAZARD!
• DO NOT modify the electrical systems or relevant drawings. Only qualified
personnel should install batteries and/or perform maintenance on the elec-
trical system.
• To minimize the risks of fire and explosion, NEVER install knife switches or
other arcing devices in the fuel compartments. NEVER substitute automotive
parts for marine parts. Electrical, ignition and fuel system parts were
designed and manufactured to comply with rules and regulations that mini-
mize risks of fire and explosion.

FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARD!
• Fuel fumes are heavier than air and will collect in the bilge areas where they
can be accidently ignited. Visually and by smell (sniff test), check the engine
and fuel compartments for fumes or accumulation of fuel. Always operate
the bilge blowers for at least four minutes prior to engine starting, electrical
system maintenance or activation of electrical devices.
• To minimize the danger of fire and explosion, DO NOT expose batteries to
open flame or sparks.
• DO NOT smoke anywhere near the batteries.

SHOCK & ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
• NEVER disconnect the battery cables while the engine is running since
damage may occur to your boat’s electrical system components.
• The battery charging system (alternator) installed on your boat are designed to
charge conventional lead-acid batteries. Before installing gel-cell or other new
technology batteries, consult with the battery manufacturer about charging
system requirements.

caused by corrosion, keep all electrical connections clean and apply a spray-on
protectant that is designed to protect connections from corrosion.
