The inverter/converter can be used for silent AC power if shore power is not
available and using the generator is not going to be selected as a secondary
power source option. This device has limited AC power output measured in
watts. It operates only selected appliances and outlets. The inverter/converter is
two components in one. Its first function is as an auxiliary 120 Volt AC power
source that uses 12 Volt DC house battery power to invert to 120 Volts AC
power. The second function of the inverter/converter is to use 120 Volts AC,
supplied from either shore power or the generator, and convert it to 12 Volts DC
power to recharge the batteries.
The main house battery disconnect switch turns the battery power supply
on or off. The domestic battery disconnect switch shuts off the 12 Volt DC
power to the following items: the inverter, the domestic fuse panel in the
bedroom, the domestic fuse panel in the front run box and the domestic power
supply in the rear run box(s). Turn the main battery disconnect switch off
when the motorhome is going to be stored or before performing electrical main-
tenance on the motorhome. If possible, leave the motorhome plugged into an
AC source with the battery disconnect switch on. This will help prevent the
possibility of dead batteries. Use of the battery cut-off switch at the entry door
will not turn off all DC electrical items or other parasitic loads. There are small
parasitic loads that are present on the house battery. Some are federal mandate
items such as the LP-Gas detector. If an AC source is not available and the
motorhome is not going to be used or is stored more than 48 hours, it is
recommended to turn the battery disconnect switch off.
