BATTERY STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
When you store your RV for a week or more be
sure to disconnect the battery(s). Electronic tuning
radios, the propane detector, and the CO detector all
draw a small amount of current when the battery is
connected. Even disconnected batteries will naturally
“self-discharge” about 1 % of capacity per day. If you
intend to store your RV for any length of time,
remove the battery(s). Store it in a cool, dry place and
recharge every month. Batteries will discharge on their
own. Recharging will also help prevent problems with
battery sulfation which leads to premature battery
failure.
WATER PUMP CONTROL SWITCH
This rocker switch controls the demand water pump.
The water pump is pressure sensitive and starts (with
the switch ON) when a faucet is open, causing
pressure in the line to drop. When the faucet is
closed, pressure builds in the line and the pump
stops.
MONITOR PANEL - LEVEL INDICATOR SWITCH
When depressing the monitor switch, indicator lights
for the black (waste), grey (sink) and fresh water tank
will illuminate, indicating the existing condition of
each component.
NOTE
: Erroneous indications when checking water levels
can be caused by:
Water with low mineral content. Level is measured
by a very low electrical signal traveling through the
liquid. Some water that is low in mineral content may not
conduct the signal properly. This condition may be infrequent,
but can exist. Check the panel reading when the fresh water
tank is filled. Material trapped on the sides of the holding
tanks may give a full reading when the tank is
actually empty. Use of a spray to wash out the
tank following dumping should help prevent
this condition
NOTE:
If the sensor probes mounted in the tanks get
coated with grease, the monitor panel may indicate
falsely or not at all. Avoid pouring grease, oils, or
similar substances down drains or the toilet. If this is
unavoidable, the holding tank(s) should be washed out
with a soapy water solution.
TRAILER FUSE PANEL
12-volt Interior Circuits
A 12-volt interior fuse panel is installed in the Power
Distribution Center to protect the interior circuits.
Circuit titles and fuse sizes are marked inside the
removable access door. If a fuse blows, locate and
correct the cause. Turn off all lights and motors,
and then install a fuse with the same rating. If fuses
continue to blow, a short circuit is indicated. Have
the system checked by qualified personnel.
FUSES
All the electrical circuits in your RV have fuses to
protect them from short or overload. If something
electrical in your trailer stops working, the first thing
you should check for is a blown fuse. Determine
from the chart, or the diagram on the fuse panel,
which fuse or fuses control that component. Check
those fuses first, but check all fuses before deciding
that a blown fuse is not the cause. Replace any
fuses and check the component’s operation.
Do not install fuses with amperage ratings greater
than that specified on the label. Replacing a fuse
with one that has a higher rating greatly increases
the chances of damaging the electrical system. If
you do not have a replacement fuse with the proper
rating for the circuit, install one with a lower rating
until you can replace it with the proper rated fuse.
If the replacement fuse of the same rating blows in
a short time, there is probably an electrical problem
with your RV. Leave the blown fuse in that circuit
and have your camper checked by your Chalet
dealer.
