everything in good working order and in the case of gasoline sets, to avoid fuel varnishing,
which can affect performance, if the generator is stored for an extended time.
Lack of exercise can cause moisture build-up and fuel system degradation that make it run
poorly. In fact, in as little as 30 days, the fuel in gasoline-powered generators can begin to
gum and varnish the fuel system. Fuel varnishing results in hard starting and surging. (A
surging generator never settles at a stable operating speed.)
To prevent such problems, it is recommended to run gasoline generators at a minimum
of 50 percent capacity (2000-watts, or one air conditioner for a 4000-watt set) for two
hours once every four weeks. This is necessary to help keep moving parts lubricated, expel
moisture and control fuel varnishing in the carburetor. A long two-hour exercise period is
preferable to several short periods. While traveling, this can be accomplished by running the
air conditioning.
For more information on generator operation and maintenance, refer to the generator
owner’s manual. Refer to the Cummins/Onan website by visiting

Your recreation vehicle may be wired with a (exterior) plug
in that will allow the batteries to be trickle charged using a
free standing solar panel. In most models, the solar panel kit
is a customer purchased and installed option. The solar plug
location will vary by model, but may be located either on the
sidewall, on the A-frame of the vehicle or in the outside utility
center. There are capped off wires located in the area of the
battery. These wires are the battery charging wires. Once these
wires are properly connected to your battery, you will then be
able to plug the solar panel into the charging port. When the
system is connected properly, the solar panel will supply power
to the battery, the battery will supply power to the converter, and the
converter will supply power to all the 12V systems as needed.

The command center is typically located just inside the entrance door or in the living area of
the recreation vehicle. It contains switches and controls for electrical functions for the RV.
Depending on your model, the command center may be a panel complete with switches, or it
can be a group of switch pods mounted to a recessed panel inside a cabinet. Some models
