GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER
Bath, galley and exterior outlets are connected
to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter),
which is an extremely sensitive circuit breaker
that will help to protect against severe electrical
shock if a ground fault develops. If such a condi-
tion occurs, the GFCI will break the circuit by
turning off the power to the protected outlets.
Should this occur, unplug all the appliances on
that circuit and press the reset button on the GFCI
equipped outlet.
If the GFCI keeps tripping, have the electrical
system checked and repaired if necessary before
using again.
The GFCI outlet is located in the bath, bed-
room or dinette area, depending on the floor plan
of the vehicle.
AUXILIARY 110-VOLT
GENERATOR
Consult the information provided in your
Owner InfoCase for instructions on operation,
troubleshooting and maintenance.
Starting and Stopping the Generator
The generator switches are located on the
monitor panel as well as on the generator itself.
The generator starter circuit does not rely on the
automotive battery, so the switch will operate
whether the ignition switch is on or off.

Test
The GFCI will not completely elimi-
nate electrical shock. Small children
and persons with heart conditions or
other disabilities which make them
especially sensitive to electrical
shock may still be injured by a 110-
volt receptacles even though pro-
tected by a Ground Fault interrupter.
Careless handling
of the generator
and electrical components can be fa-
tal.
Never
touch electrical leads or appli-
ances when your hand are wet, or
when standing in water or on wet
ground.
Do not
attempt to repair the generator
yourself. Service should be performed
by an authorized service center.
Do not
plug the power cord into the
generator receptacle while the genera-
tor is running.
