CAUTION: Do not remove cover from shore power supply to
troubleshoot electricity to the motorhome. Serious personal injury
or death may occur. If there is no power to the motorhome inform
the park manager. It is the park manager’s responsibility to fix any
problems with the park’s shore hook up.
Plugging in the Shore Cord:
• Located in the roadside compartment is the shore power cord.
• Unscrew the deck plate and extend a sufficient amount of cable through
the deck plate to reach the socket.
• Align cord end with socket terminals. Insert and rotate end clockwise ¼
turn locking end into socket.
• If 50 Amp service is not available, install the proper electrical adapters to
the cord.
• Always turn off the shore power breaker to the power supply outlet before
connecting or disconnecting the shore cord. This will prevent an
accidental shock and flashing of electrical contacts.
• Make the connection to the outlet and turn the shore power breaker on. The
transfer switch should make an audible click.
After connecting the motorhome to shore power, wait approximately one minute
for the inverter/charger or converter to "stabilize" charging of the batteries before
starting air conditioners or other large AC loads. In the instance 50 Amp service is not
available, use caution not to overload the supplied shore service breaker. Operate
appliances and outlets in sequence rather than all at the same time.
Disconnecting the Shore Cord:
• Turn off all AC appliances. This will prevent accidental shock and
flashing of electrical contacts when disconnecting.
• Turn off the shore power breaker.
• Grasp housing of electrical cord. Without touching electrical contacts,
work cord out and away from socket.
• Straighten, clean and store cord.
