chassis engine is running so the
alternator can charge the batteries.

your InfoCase for more information.
TV ANTENNA
The TV antenna on your motor home can be
easily raised, rotated a full 360
°
and lowered
from inside the vehicle by simply turning a crank
or directional handle. A built-in signal amplifier
designed to strengthen signals, is controlled by a
power switch built into the optional video
selector panel or on a wall plate assembly.
See the antenna manufacturer’s operation,
care and maintenance information in your
InfoCase.
