SECTION 3
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
3-22
Refer to your chassis manual for information
and precautions on filling, servicing and
checking the fluid level.
CHASSIS BATTERY CUTOFF
SWITCH
The battery cutoff switch disconnects most
chassis electrical loads from the chassis (starting)
batteries to avoid discharge by direct systems
such as engine computers, clock chips, sensors,
etc. This feature is intended to help conserve
battery charge when the vehicle is not in use.
Note: The slideout room mechanisms are still
operable when this switch is turned off so
rooms may be extended or retracted if
necessary.
Turn the knob to the OFF or ON positions to
disconnect or reconnect the chassis batteries.
FRONT SERVICE ACCESS
(HOOD)
The ‘hood’ panel can be opened for access to
the air hose connector and service items such as
filling windshield washer fluid reservoir and
checking generator oil.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS AND
WIPERS
The windshield washer fluid reservoir is
located in the front of the coach behind the
‘hood’ panel. A long-necked funnel may be
required for filling. We recommend using
commercially available premixed solutions for
best results. Do not use water in freezing
temperatures because the washer pump could
become damaged.
AUTOMOTIVE 12-VOLT
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The 12-volt automotive and additional coach
circuit breakers are located on the main 12-volt
electrical panel in the front left exterior
compartment.
