Interior
All 12-volt DC power comes from the converter or the black lead in the wire harness from
the tow vehicle battery. Remember, to receive power from the converter you must have
a 120-volt AC energy source available. 120-volt AC power may be turned off or on by
switching the 120-volt AC breaker in the converter.
Batteries (Option)
All Jayco folding camping trailers are pre-wired to accept an auxiliary battery if so
desired. The battery must be hooked up directly to red (positive) and white (negative)
wires on trailer hitch, harness and frame using nothing less than 10 gauge wires.
The auxiliary battery may be installed to avoid discharging tow vehicle battery when 120-
volt power is not available.
Camping trailers with power lift system will have a battery and box installed as part of
the option package.
All battery packages installed by the manufacturer will have an “in-line” fuse and holder
included for protection.
CAUTION:
When drawing current from the tow vehicle battery, be sure to avoid
draining battery to a low point that the tow vehicle will not start.
All Jayco folding camping trailers have ceiling light circuit directed through a master shut-
off switch to prevent 12-volt DC current flow to ceiling lights with roof lowered.
Periodically test light and switch to be sure switch adjustment is correct. Switch is
located along bottom edge of roof on roadside.
WARNING:
The converter output is not intended to power the optional 3-
way refrigerator. when the fold-down is parked and the power cord is
plugged in, set the 3-way refrigerator to “AC Power.” A “DC” mode is to be
used when traveling and will pull its power from the auxiliary battery
charge line. While camping without available AC power, utilize the “LP
Gas” mode.
Please note, battery warranties are prorated.
Battery Charger
The converter will automatically monitor and charge the auxiliary battery up to a 20-amp
rate. In order to maintain the battery, one of two things is recommended:
• The battery can be stored in a fully charged condition.
• The battery can be hooked to a battery charger once per month.
Battery terminals and connectors, including vehicle frame connections, should be cleaned
thoroughly, securely fastened, and coated with a silicone dialectic compound or petroleum
jelly.
