alternator to recharge the battery or bat-
teries, unless the battery(ies) have been
used to the extent of their life span.
Carbon monoxide is emitted from the en-
gine’s exhaust system. Never run the en-
gine without proper ventilation. Do not run
the engine in a confined space or where
fumes may be trapped. Do not run the en-
gine when the boat is stationary in calm
wind conditions.
Other Alarms
Models:
All.
Purpose:
Sensors check the oil pressure, en-
gine and transmission temperatures.
Location:
Internal and unseen.
Operation:
If the system detects readings outside
the acceptable range, the system shuts
off the stereo and sounds the alarm for
a period of one (1) minute. This sig-
nals the need to return to shore as soon
as possible and seek assistance from
your authorized MasterCraft dealer’s
service department to diagnose and, if
necessary, repair the problem.
Battery Charger
Models:
All, as an option.
Purpose:
As a convenience, a battery charger
is offered as an option. The charger is
designed to recharge the batteries and
also to extend the battery’s life in ap-
plications where it is stored for long
periods of time.
These are three-stage electronic
chargers, completely automatic, light-
weight, and silent. Unlike most auto-
motive chargers, this charger will not
boil off the electrolytes in properly in-
stalled and maintained batteries.
Location:
See the Guide to Individual Models
section of this Owner’s Manual. Bat-
tery locations vary by model.
Operation:
The red and green LED lights, which
are mounted on the charger face, indi-
cate when the unit is recharging and
maintaining the batteries. The battery
charger will shut off when the batteries
are fully charged.
Before charging a battery, do not
operate the charger if the cables or an
LED is damaged. Be sure that all ac-
cessories are OFF.
