Ground Fault Circuit 
Breaker 

 

For your protection and 
safety, we have installed 

 

a Ground Fault Circuit Breaker (GFCB) (Figure 
3.10)  in the converter to protect the outlets in your 
Born Free Motorcoach.  The outlets requiring 
protection are those located in areas with potential 
exposure to moisture.  All 110

-

volt outlets are 

protected by this device and will trip the “GFCB” 
breaker if moisture is sensed.  You should test the 
“GFCB” once a 
month to ensure 
the breaker is 
functioning 
properly.  To test 
the device, simply 
push the “TEST” 
button (A).  The 
breaker handle will audibly move to the center trip 
position, indicating ground fault protection.  Reset 
the breaker by moving the handle to “OFF” and 
then to “ON”.  If the test fails to trip the breaker, the 
breaker should be replaced.

Volt Auxiliary Generator 

 

The auxiliary generator (Figure 3.11), located under 
the floor on the driver’s side of the vehicle, allows 
you to use 120

-

volt 

appliances when 110

-

volt shoreline power 
is unavailable.  Gas 
generators operate on 
unleaded gasoline 
drawn directly from 
the fuel tank of the 
motorcoach; diesel 
generators operate on diesel fuel drawn directly 
from the fuel tank of the motorcoach; LP generators 
operate on LP gas from the motorcoach’s LP 
storage tank.  In order for a gas generator to 
operate, the fuel tank must be at least one

-

fourth 

full; the level of the LP tank must be at least 15% 
full.

 

 

Motorcoaches equipped with a gas or diesel 

generator come equipped 
with a generator fuel 
shutoff valve (Figure 
3.12). This is located in 
front of the generator and 
can be found underneath 
the coach in the area 
where the cab meets the 
body. When preparing 
the motorcoach for 
storage, turn the valve 
from “open” to “shut” 
and run the generator 
until it dies. This will 
remove all fuel from the 
generator and its fuel lines.

 

 

WARNING:  The exhaust from a gas generator 
contains carbon monoxide (CO).  This gas is 
colorless, odorless, tasteless, lighter than air, and 
poisonous.  The exhaust system of your auxiliary 
generator has been installed with your safety in 
mind, however, certain precautions must be taken 
to protect you from conditions beyond the control 
of the manufacturer.

 

 

 

Do not simultaneously operate your generator 
and a roof vent set on intake.  Doing so could 
draw air containing exhaust gases into the 
vehicle.

 

 

Do not open windows or non

-

powered vents in 

the vicinity of the generator location.

 

 

When parking your motorcoach, position it so 
the wind will carry exhaust fumes away from 
the motorcoach.  You should also note the 
position of other vehicles parked near you.

 

 

Do not position the motorcoach in such a way 
that the generator exhaust will be deflected off 
vegetation, snow, buildings, vehicles, or any 
other object.  Doing so may deflect the exhaust 
under or into the vehicle.

 

 

The auxiliary generator can 
be started by a switch on 
the generator or by a 
Remote Mounted Start/Stop 
Panel (Figure 3.13) located 
inside the coach’s electrical 
cabinet.  Refer to the 
Owner’s Manual and 
Installation Instructions and Remote Mounted Start/
