Automatic Power Transfer Switch
(available with 50-amp service only)
-If Equipped
Whenever the generator is needed, an
automatic power transfer system automatically
switches the household electrical system to the
generator 10 seconds after the generator is
started. The ten-second delay allows the
generator to start easily without the burden of
electrical loads.
Generator Operation
See the manufacturer’s operation, care and
maintenance in your InfoCase.
Generator Hourmeter
This meter is located on the monitor panel. It
registers the total number of hours that the
generator has been operated.
Refer to the hourmeter to determine when
periodic maintenance is due and to record
services which have been performed.
Operation Warnings and Cautions
1. Do not simultaneously operate the generator
and a power vent, which could draw exhaust
gases into the vehicle.
2. Do not open windows or vents on the end or
side of the vehicle where exhaust pipe of the
generator is located.
WARNING
Do not plug the power cord into the
generator receptacle while the generator
is running. Electrical shock can cause
personal injury.

WARNING
The exhaust of all internal combustion
engines contains carbon monoxide (CO).
This poisonous gas is colorless, odorless,
tasteless, and lighter than air. The
exhaust systems of both your motor home
engine and your generator engine have
been installed with your safety in mind.
However, certain precautions must be
taken when using them to protect yourself
from conditions beyond the control of the
manufacturer.
