Care & Maintenance
All of the lights installed on your yacht are of top quality, but you should be aware that failure may periodically occur
for a variety of reasons:
1. There may be a blown fuse - replace the fuse.
2. The bulb may be burned out - carry spare replacement bulbs, making sure the wattage is correct.
3. A wire may be damaged or may have come loose - repair as required.
4. The bulb base may be corroded - clean the base and coat it with non-conductive electrical lubricant.
