Using the fuses

The POWER, MOTOR and SeaTalk terminals are fuse protected
against short-circuits and misconnections. To change the fuses:

use the fuse puller (supplied in the case) to remove the fuse

replace the fuse with an appropriate spare fuse

Note: The course computer is supplied with three spare fuses fitted in
the case. The fuses used in the course computer are standard
automotive blade fuses, so you can easily obtain replacement fuses.
Your Raymarine dealer can also provide a replacement fuse pack
(part number: A18065).
