The motorhome living area, electrical system is designed
for convenience. It is capable of supplying the vehicle
with at least two sources of power: 12 volt DC power and
110-120 volt AC power. The 12 volt coach battery supplies
power to the interior components for dry camping use. The
12 volt or DC, power supplies an AC 110-120 volt current to
the interior plug outlets through the 2000 watt Pure-sine
wave inverter.
The coach batteries are charged when the chassis engine is
running and the charge line disconnect switch (red key) is
in the ON position or when you are connected to a 110-120
volt power source (shore power) and with the 12 volt
battery disconnect switch in the ON position. Your vehicle
may also be equipped with solar panels. These solar panels
will charge the coach batteries if the charge line disconnect
switch (red key) is in the ON position.
For long term use, your vehicle may be powered by
plugging into a 110-120 volt external power source with
the supplied 25 foot power cable. The 25 foot power cable
supplied with your coach must be connected and locked to
your coach and then to a 110-120 volt power source (a 30
amp outlet is recommended). This will supply 110-120 volt
power throughout the interior and supply power through
the inverter/charger to all 12 volt components.
Your motorhome is equipped with a Pure-sine wave 2000
watt Xantrex Freedom XC Inverter/Charger. The charging
portion of the Freedom XC is set to LFP to charge the
coach batteries. The freedom XC also converts 110 volt into
12 volt to operate 12 volt appliances when plugged into
110-120 volt power.
Your motorhome is also equipped with a 2000 watt Pure-
sine wave inverter. The inverter takes the 12 volt or DC
power from your batteries and inverts it up to 110-120 volt
AC power. The inverter will enable you to use your 110-
120 volt plug outlets and induction cook top when a shore
power source is unavailable. This power source will be
limited by the state of charge of your batteries and by the
amount of current drawn by each appliance. The inverter
has a built in transfer switch that allows the 110-120 volt
power to bypass the inverter and power the 110-120 volt
plug outlets and induction cook top when the motorhome
is plugged into a shore power source.

NOTE:
All dash components including the in-dash radio and
front map lights are powered through the starting (chassis)
battery. Prolonged use of these items when the vehicle is not
running will deplete the engine starting battery.
