SINGLE BATTERY SYSTEM
When disconnecting the cables from the
battery, make sure all switches are off
and disconnect the black negative
cable(s) first to prevent spark.
On certain SL models, a single battery is provided as
standard equipment (12 volt DC) per Section H-1. When
installing the battery, proceed as follows:
1.
2.
Connect the red (positive) cable running from the
battery switch to the positive (+) battery terminal.
B. Battery Switch Operation
Power to the engine and all 12 volt electrical equip-
ment is controlled at the battery switch panel. Sepa-
rate circuit breakers are provided on the battery
selector switch panel to protect the aft bilge pump,
stereo memory, exhaust, and stereo amplifiers (if
applicable). The “SHIP’S SYSTEM” circuit breaker
must be placed in the “ON” position to provide power
to all other non-engine related 12 volt electrical
equipment.
Connect the black (negative) battery cable running
from the engine block to the negative (-) battery
terminal.
Whendisconnectingthecablesfromthebattery,
make sure all switches are off and disconnect

DUAL BATTERY SYSTEM
NOTICE
A battery selector switch is installed on the dual
battery system. Note: Dual batteries with switch may
be available as either a standard feature or optional
depending upon the SL model. Each, the ships’
systems and engine, has an individual battery
designated to it.
DO NOT turn or “pass” the battery selector
switch to the “OFF” position while the engine is
running. Alternator and wiring damage could
result.
“ON” or “Position 1” (See Figure H2) - Turning the
switch to position “ON” (“Position 1”) will use battery
to power the engine and 12 volt engine related

equipment. All other 12 volt equipment is powered
from Battery #2 through the ship’s systems breaker
when activated. Battery #2 will be isolated.
1.
Connect each of the red (positive) battery cables
leading from the battery selector switch to the
positive (+) terminal on each of the two batteries.
Only battery #1 will be charged by the alternator.
NOTICE
“Position 2” (See Figure H2) - Turning the switch
to the 3 o’clock position places the switch at the
“Position 2”. This position allows battery #2 to power
the engine and 12 volt engine related equipment, as
well as, all other 12 volt equipment through the
ship’s systems breaker when activated. Battery #1
is isolated. Only battery #2 will be charged by the
alternator.
Be sure the two red (positive) cables are
installed on the positive (+) battery term-
inals.
2.
Connect each of the black (negative) battery
cables leading to the engine block to the negative
battery terminal on each of the two batteries.
