Electrical System
12-Volt System
•
12-volt functions of the camper include both the
interior and exterior lighting, as well as the optional
water pump, furnace, and refrigerator.
•
12-volt power for exterior camper lights is supplied
by the tow vehicle through the pigtail connection.
Interior 12-volt lighting can also be supplied by the
tow vehicle, but prolonged use will deplete the tow
vehicle’s battery.
•
A power converter in the camper (optional) converts
120-volt electricity from an external source into
12-volt power for operation of the interior lights and
furnace (if applicable). The refrigerator is wired so it
can operate on 12-volt battery power alone.
•
While traveling, 12-volt operation of the (optional)
refrigerator is possible through the tow vehicle pig-
tail connection. (Do not operate the refrigerator
using the tow vehicle pigtail connection while camp-
ing.) If you will be stopping for more than one hour
while operating the refrigerator in 12-volt mode from
the tow vehicle, switch operation of the refrigerator
over to propane to prevent draining the tow vehicle
battery.
120-Volt System
The camper can be hooked up to an external 120-volt
power source for operation of the convenience outlets
and 120-volt operation of the optional refrigerator.
For
models with a power cord storage compartment:
To
attach to an outside power source, open the cap on the
power cord storage compartment, and pull out to extend
the cord. A cutout on the cap allows you to replace the
cap over the cord to keep water and dirt from entering
the cord storage compartment.
For models with a removable power cord:
Your Forest
River Pop-Up Camper is equipped with a power con-
verter. The camper can be hooked up to an external 120-
volt power source for operation of the convenience out-
lets and 120-volt operation of the optional refrigerator or
air conditioner. All models are equipped with a power
cord storage compartment. To attach an outside power
source, open the cap on the power cord inlet and attach
the removable cord provided. The power cord is 25 feet
in length and designed for 30-amp service.
Shore Line Cord
Connecting the power cord to an improperly grounded or
non-grounded power source can result in a dangerous
and possibly fatal electrical shock.
W ARNING
Never use a two wire extension cord and adapter
without proper grounding or put an ungrounded
plug on your power cord in place of the molded
30-amp plug.
