APPLIANCES AND SYSTEMS
Propane Gas Level
Press and Hold the Levels Test switch to show
approximate propane tank level.
The propane level is registered by a sending
unit on the tank. The gauge mounted on the side
of the tank will give a more accurate indication of
actual tank level if needed.
Battery Charge Meter
Press and Hold the Levels Test switch to
check the level of charge (voltage) in the 12-volt
house battery.
The colored segments (red, yellow, and green)
will light from the bottom up to the amount of
charge the battery contains.
•
Green - good or adequate charge.
•
Yellow - marginal charge.
•
Red - battery needs charging before use.
To get an accurate reading:
1. Both the chassis engine and the generator
engine must be shut off and 120-volt AC
shoreline unplugged.
2. An interior light should be turned on to
provide a small load which draws off the
battery surface charge.
Water Pump Switch
When use of the self-contained water system
is desired, turn the Water Pump switch on. The
“Pump On” light will illuminate when the pump
switch is on and the system is operable. Water
will be available as soon as a faucet is opened.
Refer to the Water Pump information
elsewhere in this section for additional
information on the water pump and initial start-
up.
NOTE: Some models may be equipped with a
Water Pump switch in the water service
center on the outside of the coach or
within the bathroom area for your
convenience.
WATER HEATER - GAS/
ELECTRIC
–If Equipped
The gas/electric water heater has a dual power
feature. It can operate from propane gas or 120-
volt house current; or it can use both at the same
time for quicker recovery at times when you are
using a lot of hot water.
Read the Water Heater Operation Manual for
complete Safety Warnings, Operating
Instructions and Maintenance Information
before operating the water heater.
Be sure the water heater is filled with water
before starting either electric or propane gas
operation.
To fill the water heater, turn the
Water Pump switch on and open a hot water
faucet anywhere in the coach. When water begins
to flow steadily from the faucet, the water heater
is full.
For Propane Gas Operation
Press the Water Heater switch on the Systems
Monitor Panel. The “Pilot Out” light will glow
for about 10-15 seconds, then it will go out. The
“Heater On” indicator will remain lit. If the “Pilot
Out” light comes on during gas operation, it
means that the burner has gone into “lockout”
