WATER HEATER DAMAGE HAZARD! DO NOT energize the AC water
heater electrical circuit until the heater is completely filled with water. Even
momentary operation in a dry tank will damage the heating elements. War-
ranty replacements will not be made on elements or tank damaged in this
manner. The tank is full if water flows from the tap when the hot water is
turned on in the galley.
FIRE, EXPLOSION & SHOCK HAZARD!
• DO NOT alter shore power connectors and use only compatible connectors.
• Before connecting or disconnecting the shore power cord to your boat, verify all breakers
and switches on the AC master panel are turned OFF.
• To prevent shock or injury from an accidental dropping of the “hot” cord into the water,
ALWAYS attach the shore power cord to the boat inlet first; then to the dockside connection.
When disconnecting from shore power, disconnect the shore power cord from the dockside
connection first.
• NEVER leave a shore power cord connected to the dockside connection only.
• Only use shore power cords approved for marine use. NEVER use ordinary indoor or out-
door extension cords that are not rated for marine use.
