2.2 Activating the System
The EC700 system has a shutdown feature
that can be used when the vehicle is in
storage. This allows the leisure electronics to
be turned off when not required to save
battery power. When in the off state the alarm
and tracking system supplies are still active,
most other supplies are turned off.
Before using the system please ensure the
system shutdown switch is in the on position
(button in) the system is now active.
2.3 Connecting to the Mains 230V
supply and Safety checks
For your safety it is IMPORTANT that you
follow these connections instructions each
time your motorhome is connected to a
mains supply. This section assumes that the
system is complete and that a Leisure battery
has been installed (see 3.4).
A) Ensure suitability of the Mains Supply.
Your motorhome should only be
connected to an approved supply that
meets the requirements of BS7671 or
relevant harmonised standards. In most
cases the site warden will hold
information regarding suitability of supply.
If using a generator you also need to
comply with the requirements /
instructions supplied with the generator.
Please note that some electronic
generators may not be compatible with
your leisure system. Further generator
operational information is contained
elsewhere in this manual.

Converter OFF
. Locate the green
‘Charger’ power switch on the PSU and
ensure the switch is in the off position
(button out) before connection to the
mains supply.

connect the supplied hook-up lead
(orange cable with blue connectors) to
the Leisure Vehicle and then connect to

‘Shutdown’ button and ensure it is in the
on position (press button in). Locate the
green ‘Charger’ switch on the PSU and
turn to the on position (press button in).
The charger switch will illuminate when
turned on.

‘Reverse polarity’ indicator on the PSU
and ensure that the indicator is NOT
illuminated. If the indicator is illuminated
