Remove the fuse cover. Referring to the
fuse capacity table, check the fuse
pertaining to the problem.
5. Pull the fuse straight out of the fuse block.
If the fuse is not blown, something else
must be causing the problem. Contact your
RV dealer for further assistance.
6. Insert a new fuse of the same specified
voltage, amperage rating and type in the
original location.
Never use a higher
rated replacement fuse.
The fuse panel label should be kept
permanently affixed to your RV.
The fuses will
not offer complete protection of the RV
electrical system in the event of a power
surge or spike.
Chassis fuse panel
A separate fuse panel supplies power to your
chassis. Refer to the Chassis Guide for
assistance.

ENERATOR
The factory-installed generator (also called a
genset) will produce 120-volt AC power for use
when camping in areas where shore power is
unavailable. 120-volt power from the
generator is output to the AC distribution
center by way of a factory-installed automatic
transfer switch. In the default mode, the
automatic transfer switch connects the
generator to the AC distribution center when
the generator is operating and shore power is
disconnected.
When the generator is operating it will power
the converter, which in turn will charge the
house and chassis batteries. The generator
requires 12-volt power from the house battery
to start, and draws fuel from the chassis fuel
tank. If the fuel tank drops to or below 1/4 full,
the genset will automatically shut off to keep
the motorhome from being stranded. Be aware
the generator, when operating, gives off
carbon monoxide.
Before starting the generator
1. Make sure the carbon monoxide detector
is working.
2. Turn OFF air conditioners and all other
appliances.
3. Check for fuel, exhaust and coolant leaks.
STOP the genset immediately if there is
a fuel, exhaust or coolant leak and have
it repaired!
To start the generator manually
A remote start/stop switch is located inside the
motorhome. A second start/stop switch is
located on the generator.
1. Press the operation control switch to start
the generator. (Depending on how cold it
is, preheat can take up to 15 seconds.)
2. The hour meter will monitor minutes of
usage when the generator is running.
3. For top performance and engine life,
especially in colder weather, let the genset
engine warm up for two minutes before
connecting (turning ON) appliances.

WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE IS DEADLY! DO
NOT run the genset when your
motorhome is indoors or in a confined
space.
Asphyxiation or carbon
monoxide poisoning hazards exist
whenever generator exhaust gasses
can accumulate.
CAUTION
Excessive cranking can overheat and
damage the genset starter motor. Do not
crank for more than 20 seconds at a time.
Wait at least two minutes before trying
again. If the genset does not start after the
third try, refer to the generator OEM
operator’s manual for more information.
