8.2 Using the cable set to connect the Cruise 2.0 to a Torqeedo Power 26-77
lithium-manganese battery
The Cruise 2.0 operates with a power supply of between 20 V and 30 V (relating to the
nominal voltage). This means it can also be operated with a Torqeedo Power 26-77
lithium-manganese (LIMA)-based battery. To increase the capacity, you can configure
several Torqeedo Power batteries parallel to each other.
• Incorrect configuration of lithium batteries leads to much higher short-
circuit currents than configurations with lead batteries. That is why you
must follow the installation instructions very carefully and only use the
Torqeedo cable set to connect up your motor.
• Here, the short cable of the cable set for serial configuration of lead
batteries is not required.

Connecting the Cruise 2.0 to Torqeedo Power 26-77
1. Start by connecting the cable set to the battery. First switch the cable set master switch
to the off or zero position.
2. Connect the negative terminal of the cable set (identified by the marking) to one of the
two negative poles of the battery. (Both negative poles are of equal value.)
3. Connect the positive terminal of the cable set (identified by the marking and the
integrated fuse) to one of the positive poles of the battery. (Both positive poles are of
equal value.)
