Preventing 12V battery drain
When the key is turned off, the high-voltage electrical system will monitor the 12V electrical
system and charge the 12V battery when needed. This function requires that the high voltage
battery has a minimum state of charge of 20%.
If the state of charge drops below 20%, the 12V battery will not charge, causing it to eventually
drain.
To avoid draining the 12V battery:
• Always connect the charging cable when docked and the key is turned off.
• Make sure to maintain the recommended state of charge of 20-80%.
Recharging the 12V battery
If the boat doesn’t start when the key is turned on, the 12V battery might be drained. Follow the
instructions to recharge the battery:
1. Turn off the 12V battery switch.
2. Connect the 12V battery charger directly to the 12V battery poles.
3. Charge the 12V battery for 10-20 minutes.
4. Turn on the 12V battery switch.
5. Turn on the key. The boat should start and the high voltage system will charge the 12V battery.
6. Disconnect the 12V battery charger.
If the boat doesn’t start contact Candela.
Navigation lights
The navigation lights are activated automatically or manually. The navigation lights are turned on
30 minutes before sunset, based on the geographical position of the boat. The automatic light
function requires a cellular connection.
The navigation lights can also be activated manually, via the user interface. The sidelights are
controlled separately from the all-round white light. As a result, the portable all-round light can be
used as an anchor light, while the sidelights are turned off according to regulations.
NOTICE! The navigation lights must be activated manually when there is no cellular
connection or low visibility. It is always the driver's responsibility to ensure that the lights
are on when needed.
