Chapter 9 - Exterior Systems
Many RV parks have cable television and telephone jack connections available. This will
enable you to watch cable television in either the bedroom or the living area by utilizing
the video selector box in the dash overhead. It will also allow you to access a telephone
jack hookup. Simply plug in the TV cable or telephone cord into the outside cable and
telephone receptacle.
Plug in 120 Volt AC devices here. The kitchen, bathroom, and outside receptacles are
protected by a ground fault current interrupter. If the appliance does not operate, check
the circuit breaker located in the 120 Volt breaker box. (See page 42)
The 120 Volt power cord is stored in one of the rear compartments on the driver’s side of
the motorhome. Connect the coach end (large yellow) of the cord into the receptacle on
the side wall of the motorhome. Turn the locking collar to hold into place. Plug the shore
end (black end) into a suitable 50 amp power receptacle to provide external power to the
motorhome and converter/charging system.
The generator compartment is located in a storage compartment on the side of the
motorhome. You can start/stop the generator from outside the unit by pushing the start
button in and holding it until you hear the generator start/stop. Refer to the Generator
Owner’s Manual for operating and maintenance information.
Damon furnaces have electronic ignition, and there is no need to access this panel
except for service. As with all appliances, service is best left for your dealer. To remove
the panel to check for insect nests, you will need a Square or a Phillips head screwdriver.
For further information, reference the furnace manufacturer’s manual provided with your
vehicle.
You can gain access to the water heater control panel to check for insect nests by
turning the tab at the top and allowing the door to hinge down. Due to the electronic
ignition, it is no longer necessary to access this compartment for lighting the pilot. It
has an electronic module board, electronic ignition lighter, and a safety pop-off valve to
relieve the pressure, should it be necessary.
The refrigerator is an electronic ignition appliance and there is no need to access this
panel except for service or checking for insect nests. If a problem is encountered, follow
the guidelines for use as outlined in the Refrigerator Owner’s Manual located in the
Owner’s Information Kit. If the problem is not resolved, contact an authorized Damon
dealer.
The fuse block is located in the battery control center compartment in front of the drivers
front tire. These fuses control the automotive ignition and dash systems. To check the
fuse, pull straight out and remove from the fuse block. The fuse can then be checked
either visually or with an electrical tester.
