items in front of the vents, particularly when the heater is in use. The heated air coming out could cause damage.

Never run the heater in a confined space, such as a garage or shop. Fumes from the engine can have deadly consequences. See also the Common Sense Approach section of this Owner’s Manual regarding carbon monoxide danger.

Carbon monoxide is emitted from the engine’s exhaust system. Never run the engine without proper ventilation. Do not run the engine in a confined space or where fumes may be trapped.

Hydraulic Steering System

Some models offer a hydraulic steering system as an option. At any time, if the steering is sluggish, difficult, or shows any signs of not working smoothly and properly, the boat should immediately be taken to an authorized MasterCraft dealer for attention. The hydraulic steering system is not accessible to the consumer for repair or maintenance, all of which should be done by the dealer.

Lighting

Some models may be equipped with incandescent bulbs in the head, storage areas or in some instances in the forward and aft-facing lights. These lights are replaceable as would be any incandescent light bulb.

Other lighting that is L.E.D. will require replacement along with the housing in which they are contained. This includes the underwater lights, courtesy lights and other auxiliary lighting. These lights will need to be replaced by an authorized Master- Craft dealer.

Also note that the underwater lights should never be operated unless the boat is in the water. Even though these are L.E.D. lights, they generate some heat and require the cooling effect of the water to avoid premature burn-out of the bulb.

Livewell/Kill Box/Catch Box

One of the options on the CSX models is a fishing package. The boxes to hold catch are removable. Water is added manually to the boxes when desired. Be sure to remove the water and catch at the conclusion of the excursion. Leaving the water and/or catch can result in unpleasant odors, mildew, mold and other damage to the box that is not covered under warranty.

Refrigeration

Some models offer optional refrigeration. In the MariStar 280 and X-80 models, it is a refrigerator unit, which is free of CFCs, and instructions are provided by the manufacturer. In the CSX 265 models, cold plates are provided in the two storage bins
