breaker panel. To operate, turn on the air

conditioner breaker to the "ON" position.

Optional A.C. Controls

The cold air return is located under the step

in the port side berth. Do not obstruct the

return to obtain maximum efficiency from the

air conditioner. Be careful when storing

items in this compartment if an air condi-

tioner is installed.

The air conditioner is self-contained and sea

water cooled. The cooling pump supplies

sea water to the unit and cools the condens-

ing unit and is discharged overboard. The

pump is located below the center in-deck

hatch near the fresh water tanks.

Sea water is supplied to the pump from a

thru-hull fitting located in the hull near the

pump. A sea strainer between the pump and

thru-hull fitting protects the system from con-

taminants that can damage the pump or the

air conditioning system. Periodically clean

the sea strainer basket to make sure the sea

water pump receives adequate water.

Air locks can occur in the cooling pump

water supply at the time of launching. If your

boat has been recently launched and water

is not flowing from the overboard thru-hull

when the air conditioner is activated, air may

have to be purged from the system. This can

be achieved by making sure the valve at the

cooling pump intake thru-hull is open. Then

run the boat at cruise speed for several min-

utes. A scoop attached to the intake thru-hull

will pressurize the system and force the air

through the pump. Refer to the air condi-

tioner owner’s manual for additional operat-

ing and maintenance information.

8.6 Head Compartment

The head compartment is equipped with a

integrated sink and a hot and cold faucet

that converts to a shower by pulling the fau-

cet out of the base. For care and cleaning

information on the sink, refer to Routine

Maintenance Section. An acrylic slider

above the sink provides daylight and ventila-

tion. An AC G.F.I. duplex outlet is provided

under the vanity.

Marine Head System

Your boat is equipped with a VacuFlush®

marine head system as standard equipment.

This system uses a small amount of water

and vacuum, which is generated by the 12-

volt vacuum pump to flush. The toilet is con-

nected to the pressurized fresh water sys-

tem. Fresh water is used to reduce odor in

the head compartment.

To use the toilet, make sure the “VacuFlush”

breaker on the MDP is on; lift the foot flush

lever slightly to wet the bowl with the desired

water level. Depress the flush lever all the

way for approximately three seconds or until

the bowl is clear. A sharp popping noise is

normal when the vacuum seal is broken and

flushing action begins. It is also normal for a

small amount of water to remain in the bowl

after flushing.

The waste is directed to the holding tank

until it is pumped out by a waste dumping

station or the overboard macerator dis-

charge system. The waste moves through a

one-inch opening in the toilet base. Incom-

ing air fragments mix with the waste as it

passes through the base opening. This pro-

NOTICE

Air conditioners use surface water to cool.

DO NOT operate the air conditioner out of

the water or without the raw water supply or

damage to the system will occur. Make sure

there is a water supply before operating the

air condition. No water supply can also trip

the circuit breaker.
