Specifications

1- 2 REFRIGERATORS
Dual voltage refrigerators are standard equipment on
most Carver boats. These units will operate on 120 volt
(220 volts on 50 Hertz models) AC power while the boat
is
connected to dockside power. The refrigerator will
automatically transfer to
12
volt operation when dock-
side power
is
not available.
Though the refrigerator operates on both voltages,
it
is
much more efficient on 120 volt (220 volt
on
50 Hertz
models) power. Whenever possible, use 120 volt
power to initially cool the refrigerator. The refrigerator
will cool more slowly, and making ice cubes may be
difficult,
on
a warm day unless the unit
is
operated first
on
120 volts to reduce temperature.
Care should be exercised while operating the refrigera-
tor on
12
volts without the engine running. The refrig-
erator requ ires a substantial amount
of
current. Exces-
sive current draw can severely drain a battery through
extended use. Dual batteries and a Battery
Selector
Switch are recommended when a refrigerator is in-
stalled.
A magnetic catch
is
used on certain refrigerators. This
latch must
be
properly adjusted to obtain adequate
sealing
of
the door when closed. .
IMPORTANT: Review section E and the refrigerator
owner's manual prior to installation
of
a shore power
battery charger. Failure
to
use a proper battery charg-
ing system could damage the refrigerator.
I - 3 STOVES
A.
Alcohol
Stoves
Alcohol stoves are standard equipment.
See the
Manufacturer's information for additional information.
B.
Alcohol-Electric
Stoves
An alcohol-electric stove
is
available as an option. This
stove combines the features
of
the alcohol stove with
those of a two-bumer electric stove. See section I and
the manufacturer's manual for additional information.
I - 4 STEREO EQUIPMENT
A cassette stereo with an AM/FM radio
is
provided on
21', 23'
& 25' models and is available
as
optional
equipment
on
27' models. The speakers are installed
within the interior cabin and exterior bridge-cockpit
areas so
as
to provide good sound quality
as
well as
functional concealment.
If the boat is so equipped,
information from the stereo manufacturer is provided.
I - 5 AIR CONDITIONING
The 2757 and 2767 are available with air conditioning.
The unit operates on 120 volt (220 volt on 50 hertz
models) AC power. Therefore, shore power must be
connected wheneverthe air conditioning
is
to be used.
Be sure the appropriate circuit breakers are in the ON
position when operation is required
..
IMPORTANT: Clean the sea water strainer often.
Also, clean the retum air filter screens, located behind
the louvered doors and grills, at least once a month.
Air conditioners utilized in Carver boats are equipped
with reverse cycle
heat
Thus, some heat effect can be
derived from the unit. However, the amount of heat that
can
be
obtained is limited
by
the ambient temperature
of the water.
