Converters
A converter transforms alternating current or shore line power 120 volts
to low-voltage
direct current to provide power to
the coach's 12 volt house and chassis batteries. This function occurs
automatically when 120
volts are supplied to the
converter.

Lighting
A Newmar coach's electrical and lighting system is designed for maximum reliability, functionality, and style.
Your coach may feature traditional on/off switches or multi-switch touch panel light and accessory switch panels. Located
throughout the unit, these switching devices are used to turn lights on and off, as well as to operate power shades and
window treatments. Many coach models boast LED accent lights and new cloth-shaded LED wall sconces custom-
designed for Newmar.
Operating Instructions
Control can be as simple as flipping the switch or touching the switch panel to operate the light or accessory you desire.
Some lights may also have dimming features, allowing you to adjust the interior lighting for mood or comfort.
For More Information
Refer to the product manufacturer's owner's manual and links to learn more about your coach's lighting system.
Receptacles and Accessory Chargers
Newmar coaches are framed 16 inches on center, allowing the best placement of outlets, switches and other
components.
120 Volt Outlets
Several 120 volt receptacles are located throughout the
interior of the unit. These receptacles require three-pin plugs
that provide proper grounding to protect you from electrical
shock. The breaker for the outlets are usually located in the
breaker box. If the breakers are on the inverted circuitry, they
will be located in the sub-panel near the main breaker box.
Do not use an adapter, cheater, or extension cord that breaks the continuity of the ground circuit to the ground
pin. Never remove the ground pin from a plug in order to connect it to a two-pronged ungrounded outlet.
