Section 6: Electrical System
Solar Prep
Your motor home is equipped with a roof mount solar panel
quick connection. This allows a (customer purchased) solar
panel to be installed permanently on the roof. Installation will
consist of the solar panel(s), regulator and wiring/fusing be-
tween the regulator and batteries. There are no other solar plugs
for portable solar panels on the vehicle.
The (black ABS) solar prep box is located in a basement com-
partment of the RV and is marked with a solar prep label (in-
dicating wire colors and polarity). There is also an additional
label indicating the RV is wired for solar.
When connected, the solar panel will supply power to the bat-
tery and the battery will supply power to all the 12V systems
as needed.
Adding solar panels or equipment will affect the carrying capacity of your
recreation vehicle. Vehicle weight ratings should be considered before adding
these components.
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.
Starting the Generator
Your motorhome has manual switches located at the Command Center panel. There are sec-
ondary switches located on the dash, in an overhead cabinet, or on the generator itself. An
hour meter that keeps track of generator hours used is located near the switch and a separate
hour meter on the generator.
To Manually Start the Generator
1.
At either “START/STOP” switch, press and hold the start portion of the switch to start
the generator. Depending on the outside temperature the start process can take up to 15
seconds. Once the generator starts running, release the 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.
