9.2 Main switch and fuse panel
The main switch and fuse panel are located as indicated in the diagram. Every battery in the boat’s electrical system has its own dedicated main switch.
The main switch has the symbols 0=off and I=on. Switch off the current using the main switch:
-
When leaving the boat unattended.
-
Before performing electrical installation work.
The automatic bilge pump and the Q-system remote operation circuits remain operational whenever the battery is attached to the electrical system, regardless of the position of the main switch.
The boat uses automatic fuses, which enable the current to be switched back on following a circuit overload. If a button has popped up, switch the current back on by pressing the button down.
Depending on the model and equipment level, the boat's electrical system has 1–3 redundant circuits equipped with fuses. These circuits can be used for retrofitting additional equipment. The identifiers and the names of the fuses are shown in the wiring diagrams available in the manual appendices.
-
Do not install fuses with a higher rating than that of the circuit.
-
Do not connect any devices to the electrical system that have a nominal current higher than that of the circuit.
-
Do not alter the boat's electrical system or associated diagrams. Only a skilled boat electrician is allowed to modify and service the system.
If a fuse keeps popping after being reset, consult an electrician.
