ELECTRICAL FEATURES CONTINUED
ELECTRIC GENERATOR
Your Wayfarer motorhome is equipped with a
3.2kw diesel generator (Figure 82.1). Your
generator is conveniently located in an exterior
compartment in your Wayfarer motorhome. Prior
to starting or stopping the generator, make sure
that all of the 120VAC appliances in your
motorhome are turned "OFF".
The generator can be started from either the
remote start switch located on the central control
panel (Figure 82.2), or directly on the generator
itself.
The hour meter located on the central control
panel display or on the generator itself is vital for
observing necessary maintenance schedules on the
generator.
To start the generator from the central control
panel:
• Push the red button from Gen OFF to
Display ON
• Wait until display is ready
• Push and release the green start button
After the generator has been started, wait until the
transfer switch has connected before turning "ON"
any appliances.
