The inverter/charger features a Battery
Saver
™
Mode, which is designed to keep
batteries fully charged over long periods of time.
See the inverter/charger information included in
your InfoCase for more information on this
feature.
If the batteries do not charge as described
above, it is possible the batteries are defective. If
the batteries are extremely discharged, the
charger may not be able to recharge the batteries.
NOTE: Do not leave the shoreline plugged in
during storage. Follow regular battery
inspection and maintenance.
Inverter/Charger Control Panel
The inverter/charger has a wall-mounted
control panel that can be programmed for several
charging options. It will also display warnings for
overload conditions or other operating failure
conditions.
The inverter/charger control panel is located
near the monitor panel.
When the inverter is not being used, it should
be shut off at the control panel. The inverter
could drain the house batteries if the shoreline is
not connected to external power and the House/
Coach Battery Disconnect switch is on.
NOTE: Switch the refrigerator to GAS mode
anytime you are running it with the
shoreline unplugged to avoid
discharging house batteries.
The refrigerator draws its electrical
current through the inverter and not
directly from the shoreline. If the
refrigerator is in ELECTRIC or AUTO
mode, it will continue to draw from
house batteries through the inverter
when the shoreline is unplugged unless
the inverter is turned OFF.
Further Information
See the inverter/charger manufacturer’s user
guide provided in your InfoCase for complete
instructions and charging setup directions.
POWER CENTER
(Converter)
The Power Converter is generally located in a
lower cabinet face in the galley or living area of
your coach, depending on model. It contains the
house electrical system 120-volt circuit breakers
and 12-volt circuit breakers or fuses.
The Power Converter changes 120-volt AC
current from the auxiliary generator or the
shoreline into 12-volt DC current for use by 12-
volt equipment in the motorhome.
