It is strongly recommended to avoid the use of extension cords. Using an improper
extension cord will cause overheating of the cord and equipment, and it voids the warranty.
It may also cause premature failure of the AC equipment. If you choose to use an extension
cord, it MUST be the same amperage rating as the RV power cord and be identified for
heavy-duty outdoor use. However, the use of an extension cord can still cause all of the
problems discussed here and will void the warranty.

WARNING: Do not use an adapter, cheater or extension cord that will
break the continuity of the grounding circuit connected to the third pin.
NEVER remove the grounding pin to connect a non-grounded,
two-prong receptacle. Any deviation from this will potentially cause a
fire from overheating.
GROUND FAULT CURRENT INTERRUPTER (GFCI)
I
WARNING: Make sure you read, understand and follow all
instructions supplied by the GFCI receptacle manufacturer with your
RV. Failure to follow these instructions could lead to death or serious
injury from shock or electrocution.
Each trailer has a GFCI receptacle installed. These initials mean “Ground Fault Current
Interrupter.” This special receptacle has been designed to reduce the possible injury caused
by electrical shock.
An example of ground fault current is the current which would flow through a person who
is using or touching an appliance with faulty insulation and, at the same time, is in contact
with an electrical ground such as a plumbing fixture, wet floor, or earth.
When this GFCI receptacle is tripped, it has interrupted ground fault current caused by such
things as faulty insulation or wet wiring inside some appliance or equipment connected to
the circuit. The faulty equipment should be repaired before it is used again.
The GFCI receptacle will not protect against short circuits or overloads. The circuit breaker
or fuse in the electrical panel, which supplies power to the circuit provides this protection.
This GFCI receptacle should be tested monthly while the travel trailer is being used. Any
suspected problems with the GFCI should be checked by an independent, authorized
dealer.
Testing Instructions
1. Plug a 120-volt electrical device into the receptacle on the face of the GFCI.
2. Push and release the RESET button.
3. The 120-volt electrical device should operate at this time.
4. Press the TEST button.
5. The RESET button should pop out indicating it has been “tripped” and the 120-volt
electrical device should cease operating. (If the GFCI is manufactured with an
indicator light, the light should glow when the GFCI has tripped.)
6. If the GFCI did not trip, do not use the outlet. Call a qualified electrician to service or
replace the receptacle. The ground fault protection is no longer working properly.
7. To restore power after “tripping”, press in the RESET button. It must remain in. (If an
indicator light is furnished, it will be off.)
