Section 6: Electrical System
Maintenance
During periods of extended storage:
1. Add a diesel fuel additive to the chassis fuel tank to prevent algae growth (only with a
diesel fueled generator).
2.
Completely fill the chassis diesel fuel tank to prevent water condensation and rust in the
tank (only with a diesel fueled generator).
3. Cover the end of the generator exhaust pipe with screen to prevent bug and rodent
intrusion.
With the exception of simple items, such as normal maintenance (i.e., oil changes, etc.),
all service work should be done by an authorized repair facility. Improper adjustments can
damage the generator and electrical appliances and can result in a safety hazard.
Follow the
generator owner’s manual for maintenance intervals and recommendations.
Exercising Your Generator
– When storing the generator for extended periods of time, it is
important to run the generator regularly to keep it in good working order. Lack of exercise
can cause moisture build-up in the fuel system resulting in poor performance.
For more information on generator operation and maintenance, refer to the generator own-
er’s manual.
Excessive usage can overheat and damage the generator starter motor. Do not
engage the starter motor for more than 20 seconds at a time. If the generator
does not start after the first attempt, wait at least two minutes before beginning
another start sequence. If the generator does not start after a third attempt,
refer to the generator owner's manual for additional information.
Starting the Generator
Depending on your model, your motor home may have a touchscreen to control the genera-
tor, or manual switches located at the Command Center panel. There may also be secondary
switches located on the dash, in an overhead cabinet, or on the generator itself. A digital
hour meter that keeps track of generator hours used is located either on the touchscreen or
on a separate hour meter on the Command center panel.
To Manually Start the Generator
1. At either “START/STOP” switch, press and hold the upper portion of the switch to start
the generator. Depending on the outside tempera-
ture the start process can take up to 15 seconds.
Once the generator starts running, release the
“START/STOP” switch.
2. An LED above the start switch will light when the
generator is running.
3. For better performance and engine life, especially in colder weather, let the generator
engine warm up for two minutes before turning “ON” 120-volt appliances.
For more information on generator operation and maintenance, refer to the manufacturer’s
owner’s manual.
Automatic Generator Start (AGS) (if so equipped)
Some motor home models may be equipped with an Automatic Generator Start system
(AGS). The controls are built into the touchscreen system. When enabled, the Automatic
Generator Start system will automatically start and stop the generator according to operator
