Caution
Do not switch the battery switch to “OFF” while the engine is
running. Switching the battery switch off while the engine is running
can result in alternator damage.
The capacity of each battery is:
Amp/Hr: 79
Cold cranking amps (CCA): 525
Marine cranking amps (MCA): 735
The battery charge state can be monitored on the cockpit instruments as
described in the Instruments Information portion of this manual.
Battery Switch
The batteries are controlled by the four-position, make-before-break Perko battery
switch. The make-before-break feature protects the alternator from potentially
damaging zero load operation during battery switching and ensures
uninterrupted power to electronics that may reboot if power is interrupted.
Switching the battery switch off while the engine is running can result in
alternator damage.
The “1” position selects the battery mounted in the inboard or port position. The
“2” position selects the battery mounted in the outboard or starboard position.
Only the battery or batteries selected on the battery switch are charged when the
engine is running. When the battery switch is “OFF”, the alternator will not
charge the batteries and the alternator may be damaged if the engine is running.
