Fire or Explosion Hazard!
Electrical system parts are designed by and
manufactured to comply with the U.S. Coast
Guard requirements to minimize risks of fire
or explosion. Never substitute automotive parts
for marine parts. Automotive parts do not
provide the necessary ignition spark protection.

DO NOT disconnect the battery while the
engine is running. Alternator damage could
result.

cal connection, panel or harness, or attempt

thoroughly familiar with the systems and are
experienced in making such installations.
