LIVING QUARTERS, LP and ELECTRICAL
1. Make sure power to the circuit is ON
2. Push the reset button.
3. The red reset button should pop out.
4. All power should be interrupted to outlets protected by the GFCI.
5. Verify by plugging in a light at these outlets, and pushing in the red reset button. If the button does not
pop out after pushing the test button, or GFCI circuit continues to trip, immediately turn off power at the
circuit breaker panel and have a qualified dealer, service tech, or electrician service it.
NOTE: THE GFCI DOES NOT PROTECT ANY CIRCUIT OTHER THAN THE ONE TO
WHICH IT IS CONNECTED. THESE OUTLETS ARE THE BATHROOM, BOTH KITCHEN
OUTLETS, AND THE OUTSIDE ENTERTAINMENT OUTLET.
VAC Circuit Breakers
The VAC system is protected by circuit breakers. These breakers automatically trip if the circuit load is
too heavy, or a short circuit occurs. If a circuit breaker has been tripped, do not reset the breaker until
the cause of the problem is identified and corrected.
A 12 volt DC distribution panel is to the right of VAC circuit breakers. The panel contains circuits
with replaceable “ATC” fuses for protection of recreational vehicle 12 volt lines. If any line is loaded
beyond the capacity of its fuse, the fuse will blow. A portion of the 12 volt load on the line must be turned
off to reduce the total load on the line to a level below the capacity of the fuse, Replace the fuse with the
same size and type.
DO NOT replace with a larger fuse than indicated.
If this reduction of load on the line does not stop the blowing of the fuses, there may be a short some
where along the 12 volt line, or at a not-fused 12 volt component on the line. Check the 12 volt line and
any components along the line. Locate the short and take necessary steps to repair it. If you cannot
locate the problem, call a qualified dealer, service tech, or electrician.
NOTE: KEEP ADDITIONAL “ATC” FUSES ON HAND INSIDE YOUR AVIATOR.
REPLACEMENT FUSES ARE AVAILABLE AT GAS STATIONS, HARDWARE STORES, OR
AUTOMOTIVE SUPPLY STORES. REMEMBER THAT THE REPLACEMENT FUSE MUST
BE THE SAME AMPERAGE RATING, AND SAME TYPE AS THE ORIGINAL FUSE. YOUR
AVIATOR USES “ATC” VDC TYPE FUSES.
