ICC Flasher
On the dash you may have a switch labeled “ICC Flasher.” This switch is a momentary type of switch. This
means it is only active while the switch is being pressed. It enables the driver to communicate with other traffic by
flashing the clearance and side lights of the coach. If the lights are on, it will turn them off. If the lights are off, it
will turn them on.
Inverter/Converter (Optional)
When 120 volt power is not available, either from the power cord or the generator,
the optional inverter/converter may be used, if installed. The control panel for the
inverter is located above or near the entrance door. Once turned on, the inverter
transforms 12 volt power to 120 volt power for the operation of lights, appliances,
televisions, etc. The 120 volt power that is generated from the inverter is routed to
the electrical sub-panel located next to the main breaker box in cabinet above the
bed.
The breakers in the sub-panel are labeled to explain where the 120 volt power is routed. It generally supplies
power to the microwave, kitchen, bath, and selected receptacles. The inverter is equipped with an automatic
transfer switch. This allows automatic switching from inverter to converter. When you are connected to an outside
power source or running the generator, the converter (in the inverter) will automatically switch on to charge the
12 volt batteries. For more detailed information consult the manufacturer Owner’ s Manual located in the Owner
Information Package.
Generator
The generator is located in a compartment in front of the motorhome. It is mounted on slides for easy access. The
slides for the generator must be unlocked before free movement is allowed. Prior to starting or stopping the
generator, make sure all of the 120 volt appliances are turned off. After the generator has started, wait until the
transfer switch has connected before turning on any of the appliances. The generator can be started from either the
remote start switch located on the dash or directly at the generator itself. The hour meter installed on the generator
calculates the number of running hours of the generator motor. This is used for maintenance schedules.
CAUTION
Failure to turn off the 120 volt appliances when starting or stopping the generator may damage the transfer switch
and/or electrical appliances.
Consult the manufacturer owner’ s manual for detailed operating instructions.
Automatic Transfer Switch
Your unit may be equipped with an automatic transfer switch. When the generator is turned on, this switch
automatically transfers from shore power to generator power. There will be a slight delay between the start of the
generator and the electrical connection. This delay allows the generator to reach normal operating speed without
needing to supply a required load. When the unit is plugged into the outside power source, a click will be heard in
the transfer switch box. The sound is normal and indicates that the unit is changing over to the outside power
source.
