Inspections during the boating season
Give your WaterWorld system and its energy system regular attention, even during the boating season.
We recommend paying attention to the following points:
•
Make sure that the space underneath the boat and under the engine is kept dry so that the engine
and controller are not flooded or excessive condensation can form. It is advisable to install an
automatic bilge pump at the deepest point of the boat and to check its correct operation at regular
intervals. Check this before every sailing trip. If there is water in the boat and the electronics have
become wet, dry them and contact your installer. Do not switch on the engine in this situation.
•
Keep engine and controller as well as the other parts of the system clean and dry. You can clean
it with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use water to clean the system.
•
Always keep your system connected to shore power when you are not sailing. This prevents
empty batteries. The charger will stop automatically when the batteries are full. Always check
if the charger turns on when you switch it on.
Attention!
Before carrying out inspections or maintenance, always switch off the system at the main power switch.
