1. Monitor the AC panel’s polarity indicator light (next to the master breaker) as
follows:
• A GREEN
light illuminating after the power cord is plugged into the boats
external power receptacle indicates acceptable electrical power in which you
may energize the main breaker switch.
• A RED
light, however, indicates reversed polarity, which may cause electrical
system damage and possibly electrical shock injuries. In this case, DO NOT
energize the main breaker switch (see warning below).
2. Activate the AC system by turning the main ship/shore breaker to the “DOCK-
SIDE” position.
3. Turn ON the master breaker and individual component breakers as required.
CAUTION!
SHOCK & ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
• DO NOT pinch shore power cords in doors or hatches, or coil the shore
power cord too tightly. These situations can create enough heat to start a fire.
• If a shore power cord should accidently become immersed in water, THOR-
OUGHLY dry the blades and contact slots before reusing.

NOTICE
Some dockside installations may be rated less than 30 amps, therefore, you may
need to purchase lower amp adapters. Whenever a lower amp adapter is used,
however, there will be a corresponding drop in supplied power from the dock-
side system.
