RV/Marine deep cycle batteries. This type of battery consumes water and must be filled periodically. Please be
sure to check the battery water level on a regular basis. Consult the owner’
s manual supplied by the battery
manufacturer. This can be found in the Owner Information Package received with this unit.
Battery Disconnect Panel
The battery disconnect panel for house batteries is located above or near the entrance door. There are two
switches on the panel. The top switch is used to measure the battery voltage. The lower switch is used to
disconnect the battery when the unit is stored for any period of time. Pressing downward disconnects the coach
batteries, not the chassis batteries. This is done to prevent the coach batteries
from being drained during storage. It disconnects all of the 12 volt circuitry from
the batteries, with the exception of the LP detector. When taking the unit out of
storage, press upward to re-connect the batteries. This will make the 12 volt
system ready for use.
Depending on the chassis of the coach, diesel pusher motorhomes may be
equipped with a second disconnect switch strictly for the chassis batteries.
If equipped, this “Master Kill Switch” may be located in the rear engine
compartment. This switch disconnects all power to the coach so that it cannot be started. It is used to prevent
accidental ignition when the engine is being serviced.
12 Volt Receptacles
Your unit may be equipped with two 12 volt receptacles conveniently located in the dash area. These 12 volt
receptacles can be used for items such as cellular phones or personal computers. As an option, an extra 12 volt
interior receptacle may be added to your coach.
120 Volt Receptacles
For your convenience, there are 120 volt receptacles located throughout the interior of the unit. As an option, an
extra receptacle may be added. These receptacles require three-pin plugs that provide proper grounding to protect
you from electrical shock. Do not use an adapter, cheater, or extension cord that breaks the continuity of the
ground circuit to the ground pin. Never remove the ground pin from a plug in order to connect it to a two-pronged
ungrounded outlet. Never operate the camping vehicle with an electrical short. An electrical short may cause the
exterior of the unit to shock you when touched. If you feel even the slightest shock, disconnect the unit from the
120 volt power source. It is usually a break in the grounding circuit. The grounding circuit must be continuous
from the frame to the distribution panel, to the power cord, and to the earth ground.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt Receptacles
The 120 volt electrical outlets in the kitchen and bath area are ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) protected
receptacles. The electrical outlets located in the slide out are wired through the kitchen GFCI. The exterior
electrical outlets are wired through the bathroom GFCI. If an item plugged into a slide out or outside receptacle is
not working, check for a tripped GFCI in the kitchen or bathroom. These outlets protect the user from ground
faults between a hot wire and ground. The GFCI will not reduce the shock hazard if the short is between a neutral
and hot wire, or two hot load wires.
The GFCI should be tested at least once a month. The 120 volt electrical system must be on in order to test the
GFCI. The reset button needs to be pushed in all of the way before starting the test. Push the test button. This will
cause the reset button to pop out which means that the protected circuits have been disconnected. Push the reset
button back in until a click is heard. This will reactivate the protected circuit. If the GFCI is working properly the
reset button will remain in the “IN” position.
