If AC power is not available in storage area:
• Turn off all appliances.
• Turn off interior house power.
• If possible, situate the motorhome so the batteries remain accessible. This allows a battery to be charged or
replaced without moving the motorhome.
• Charge the batteries to a full state of charge.
• Cancel the Automatic Generator Start program.
• Turn the main battery disconnects OFF.
• When stored outside, use the Aladdin™ system to make a quick reference check of the battery voltage
while the motorhome is in storage. If the motorhome is stored outside, solar panels may offset the parasitic
loads. Preventative measures should be used if the voltage readings are low. Removing the motorhome
from storage or moving the motorhome in case of an emergency will be a much easier process.
NOTE:
Batteries in a low state of charge will readily freeze. Freezing will damage the battery.
If AC power is available:
The chassis battery disconnect switch will remain ON. The inverter will charge both house and engine battery
banks. A 30 Amp shore power service will be more than adequate.
CAUTION:
A 20 Amp service using light duty extension cords and the required adapters create
serious voltage losses. Line voltage loss and the resistance at each electrical connection is a
hazardous combination and should be avoided. Damage to sensitive electronic equipment
may result!
Type of surface to park and store the motorhome on:
• Parking the motorhome on a grass surface, with the tires supported by blocks, is a perfect situation for
moisture to accumulate.
• A gravel parking area still allows moisture to evaporate from the ground, through the gravel and to the
underside of the motorhome.
• Concrete pads seal the surface allowing better ventilation under the motorhome.
• Storage buildings with concrete fl oors, or heated storage facilities, greatly reduce the amount of moisture
accumulation and protects the motorhome from moisture damage.
Outdoor Storage Area:
• The interior should be heated to help prevent mold and mildew growth. Moisture removing desiccate fi lter
systems are available from hardware and RV supply stores. Place the fi lter system inside the motorhome to
reduce interior moisture condensation or humidity.
• Proper winterization of the fresh water system will prevent potential damage in extreme cold.
• Ultraviolet radiation affects soft goods and rubber products such as privacy curtains, window shades and
tires. These items should be protected. Store Day/Night Shades in the Up position.
• Cardboard templates can be made for the windows to protect the interior from exposure to direct sunlight.
• Tire covers are available to protect the sidewall of the tires from cracking. Make sure tires in storage
contain the correct air pressure to prevent damaged caused by underinfl ation.
• Regularly washing the exterior to help control moss accumulation.
