Shore Power
FIRE, EXPLOSION and SHOCK HAZARD!
•
Use ONLY compatible shore power connectors and NEVER alter the connectors.
•
Turn Off ALL breakers and switches on the 110-volt AC master panel BEFORE plugging in
or unplugging the shore power cord.
•
To prevent shock or injury from dropping a "hot" cord into the water:
a. ALWAYS plug the shore power cord into the boat inlet first, and then into the
dockside outlet.
b. When unplugging from shore power, ALWAYS unplug the shore power cord from the
dockside outlet first.
•
NEVER leave the shore power cord plugged into the dockside outlet ONLY.
•
ONLY use shore power cords approved for marine use. NEVER use ordinary indoor or out-
door extension cords.
DANGER !

SHOCK and ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
Monitor the polarity indicator lights EVERY TIME you connect to shore power.
•
If a reversed polarity light turns On when you are connecting to shore power, do NOT turn
On the main breaker switches.
•
Instead, IMMEDIATELY unplug the shore power cord (ALWAYS from the dockside outlet
first) and alert marina management.
WARNI N G!

SHOCK and ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
BEFORE each use, check the shore power cord for defects or damage.
•
NEVER use a damaged or faulty cord since the danger of fire and electrical shock exists.
•
Do NOT pinch the shore power cord in doors or hatches, or coil the shore power cord too
tightly, since these situations can generate enough heat to result in a fire.
•
If a shore power cord is dropped into the water, COMPLETELY dry the blades and contact
slots BEFORE using.
WARNI N G!
!
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
NEVER connect to dockside power outside of North America unless you have the inter-
national electrical conversion option.
•
Using several 110-volt AC accessories at the same time can result in an overloaded circuit.
You may have to turn Off one or more accessories to use another accessory.
•
Use double insulated or three-wire protected electrical appliances whenever possible.
