The propulsion engines’ and the services’ batteries of your yacht are located in the engine room, kept inside special protective boxes placed aft of the propulsion engines.
The batteries are normally recharged by the alternators driven by the main engines during their operation.
As an alternative, they can be recharged through a special battery charger supplied by the main electrical panel, from shore or by turning on the on-board generator.
The yacht is equipped with 5 batteries, divided as follows:
| Description | Element number | Features element |
| Engine batteries | 2 | 12V, 120Ah |
| Service battery | 2 | 12V, 120Ah |
| Auxiliaries services battery | 1 | 12V, 120Ah |
| Generator battery | 1 | 12V, 120Ah |
NEVER obstruct the air intakes of the battery boxes, as natural ventilation must always be allowed for the batteries so that they do not overheat.
Do not lay objects on the cases containing the batteries.
The batteries left unloaded over long periods of not operation, loose progressively their charge, until they become completely flat and get irreparably damaged.
A frozen battery may blow up if used or charged; do not start a Yacht with frozen battery. To prevent the battery from freezing keep it always completely charged.
The battery releases explosive gas: do not approach sparkles or a flame nor smoke near it. If the battery is used or charged in a closed area, check for good ventilation. Do not check the battery charge by short-circuiting the terminals with metal tools: use a density gauge or a voltmeter.
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Any lithium battery powered device on board must be recharged only in open air areas, connected to a suitable charging system. Also please refer to the device dedicated Use and Maintenance Manual.
