BATTERY SWITCHES
Your boat may be equipped with an optional battery switch which connects/
disconnects all power to the electrical system (except the automatic bilge
pump, stereo memory, and electronic corrosion controller if equipped). Two
types of battery switches are common; a single battery switch for one battery
system, and a dual battery selector switch for systems with an auxiliary
battery.
Never turn switch to the OFF position while the engine(s) is
running or serious alternator/electrical system damage could
occur.
Battery Switch – Connects the battery to the
electrical system. Provides isolation and positive
disconnect of battery. Rotate switch to the OFF
position when boat is not in use.
Battery Selector Switch – Operates as a battery
switch and provides the additional ability to connect
two batteries in parallel for starting in case one battery
is low. Rotate switch to the OFF position when the boat
is not in use.
