Shore Power (If Equipped)
FIRE, EXPLOSION & SHOCK HAZARD!
•
DO NOT alter shore power connectors and use only compatible connectors.
•
Before plugging in or unplugging the shore power cord to your boat, make sure all breakers
and switches on the AC master panel are turned Off.
•
To prevent shock or injury from an accidental dropping of the “hot” cord into the water,
ALWAYS plug the shore power cord to the boat inlet first; then to the dockside outlet. When
unplugging from shore power, unplug the shore power cord from the dockside outlet first.
•
NEVER leave a shore power cord plugged in to the dockside outlet only.
•
Only use shore power cords approved for marine use. NEVER use ordinary indoor or out-
door extension cords that are not rated for marine use.
DANGER !
!
SHOCK & 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 & ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
Before each use, check the shore power cord(s) for defects or damage.
•
NEVER use damaged or faulty cords since the danger of fire and electrical shock exists.
•
DO NOT pinch shore power cords 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, THOROUGHLY 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 purchased the
international electrical conversion option.
•
Using several AC components at the same time can result in an overloaded circuit. You may
have to turn Off one or more appliances in order to use another appliance.
•
Use double insulated or three-wire protected electrical appliances whenever possible.
CAUTI ON
!
•
Some dockside outlets may be rated less than 30 amps, therefore, you may need to purchase
lower amp adapters.
•
Whenever a lower amp adapter is used, however, there will be a corresponding drop in sup-
plied power from the dockside system.
