Grounding is your personal protection from electrical shock. Each recreation vehicle has a
ground fault current interrupter (GFCI) engineered into the electrical system. This device
has been designed to reduce the possible injury caused by electric shock. The GFCI will not
protect against short circuits or circuit overloads.
Test all GFCI receptacles monthly
Push in the GFCI “TEST” button. The GFCI “RESET” button should pop out indicating
the GFCI receptacle has been “tripped” and interrupted 120-volt power.
Push in the GFCI “RESET” button to restore 120-volt power. Contact your t
independent dealer for assistance if the GFCI “RESET” button does not restore 120-
volt power and pops back out.
A “tripped” GFCI breaker indicates that abnormally high 120-volt current flow (a ground
fault) was detected through the electrical system grounding circuit. A fault condition can
be caused by faulty wire insulation, wet wiring inside an appliance, or faulty electrical
equipment connected to the circuit, etc. All ground faults must be repaired before use of the
motor home.

The 50 amp 120-volt 60hz AC electrical system can be powered by an outside 120/240-volt
60hz utility service like those commonly found in campgrounds or by 120/240-volt 60hz
generator power. The entire system is designed to operate on 2 legs of 120-volt power at a
maximum current flow of 50 amperes per leg.
Exposure to voltages higher or lower than a nominal 120-volts, will damage or shorten the
service life of the electrical system and appliances. The 50 amp 120-volt 60hz AC electrical
system can be powered by an outside 120/240-volt 60hz utility service like those commonly
found in campgrounds or by 120/240-volt 60hz generator power.
The following electrical components will only operate when connected to 120-volt power:
air conditioner(s), refrigerator, microwave oven, television(s), home theater system(s), water
heater, washer, dryer, fireplace, electric stove, and appliances plugged into convenience
receptacles.

The campsite 120-volt power receptacle(s) should
always
be tested for proper functionality
prior to plugging the recreation vehicle shore power cord into it.
DO NOT
plug the shore
power cord into a campsite receptacle(s) that has reverse polarity, non-functioning ground
Circuit breakers and fuses will not offer complete protection of the electrical
system in the event of power surge or voltage spike..
Make certain the external power source you connect the power cord to is a
properly wired
50 amp NEMA 14-50
RV receptacle
and not 240 volt AC.
