•
The battery charging systems (alternator and battery charger) installed on your boat are
designed to charge conventional lead-acid batteries.
BEFORE installing gel-cell or other new technology batteries, consult with the battery man-
ufacturer about charging system requirements.
•
•
Before using the battery charger, read all instructions and warnings: (1) on the battery charger, (2) on the batteries,
and (3) in the battery charger manual.
The battery charger will automatically charge your boat’s batteries when 110-volt AC power is being provided by
shore power or generator power (if equipped), and the battery charger circuit breaker on the 110-volt AC master
panel is On.
•
•
The battery switches can be in any position during charging.
During battery charging you may use 12-volt accessories, such as the lights and stereo, but battery charging will
take longer.
