NOTICE
Disconnect the 120 VAC electrical power cord
and the negative terminal from the coach
batteries BEFORE working on the Phaeton
electrical system.
If the Phaeton ever requires any welding op-
erations on the frame, first disconnect the
chassis batteries. Failure to do so will de-
stroy all of the chassis computer system.
Don’t overfill the cells; follow the filling directions exactly. This battery checkup should be done
on a regular basis to realize the fullest service possible from the batteries over the longest time
possible. If the Phaeton to be stored for an extended period of time, the 12 VDC battery system
should be disconnected—this procedure will prevent unnecessary drain and corrosion of the
batteries and their terminals.
WARNING
Remove rings, metal watchbands, and any other metal jewelry before work-
ing around batteries. If any metallic object (tool, jewelry, etc.) contacts the
positive battery terminal or any connection made to that terminal AND also
contacts the negative terminal or any of its connections, a SEVERE ELECTRI-
CAL SHORT will occur which could result in an explosion, fire, and/or per-
sonal injury. Lead-acid batteries contain diluted sulfuric acid which can be
dangerous; avoid direct contact with any battery fluids. Wear eye protection.
BATTERY DISCONNECT PANEL
There are two battery disconnect panels; one for the house
batteries and one separate panel for the engine batteries.
The house battery disconnect panel is located inside the bat-
tery storage compartment on the driver’s side of the moto-
rhome. There is a rotary switch (Figure 9-5) on the upper
right-hand side of the compartment which can disconnect the
house battery when the vehicle is to be stored for any appre-
ciable time. Rotating this switch disconnects the house bat-
teries only, not the engine batteries.
This feature is designed to prevent the house batteries from
being drained during storage.
