Further Information
Refer to the chassis manual in your InfoCase
for information and precautions on filling,
servicing, and checking the fluid level.
CHASSIS BATTERY
DISCONNECT SWITCH
The chassis battery disconnect switch
disconnects most chassis electrical loads from
the chassis (starting) batteries to avoid discharge
by constant draws such as engine computers,
radio clock, sensors, etc. (except the electric
entrance step). This feature is intended to help
conserve battery charge during storage.
Turn the switch to the OFF or ON positions to
disconnect or reconnect the chassis batteries.
NOTE: The chassis battery disconnect switch
must be on to start the engine.
FRONT SERVICE ACCESS
(HOOD)
The “hood” panel can be opened for access to
the air hose connector and service items such as
filling windshield washer fluid reservoir and
checking generator oil.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS AND
WIPERS
The windshield washer fluid reservoir is
located in the front of the coach behind the
“hood” panel. A long-necked funnel may be
required for filling.
We recommend using commercially available
premixed solutions for best results. Do not use
water in freezing temperatures because the
washer pump could become damaged.
CIRCUIT BREAKERS AND
FUSES – CHASSIS/DASH
AUTOMOTIVE 12-VOLT
The fuses, breakers, and relays for automotive
chassis and dash features are conveniently
located on the main 12-volt electrical panel in the
front left exterior compartment.
The circuit breakers pop outward if they are
tripped. Simply push in to reset.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to turn off the chassis
battery disconnect switch with the engine
running.
