CIRCUIT BREAKERS – HOUSE
120-VOLT AC
The breaker panels protect all 120-volt
components in the motor home from either an
overload on the circuit or a short in the wiring or
component itself. When an overload or short
develops, the breaker will open preventing
damage to the system.
Shut off the equipment (example: roof air
conditioner) and allow a brief cooling period.
Then reset the breaker by moving the switch to
“Off” and back to “On”. If the breaker is
continually tripped and no overload is evident,
have the system checked for a short in the wiring
or the appliances.
The breaker panels are located behind a door
or pull-off panel on a lower cabinet face in the
galley or lounge area or beneath the rear bed,
depending on model.
NOTE: 40WD models only - the breaker panels
are located behind the hinged mirror in
the bedroom. Use the knotch at the
bottom edge of the mirror to pull out.
*Breakers are labeled on panel. Arrangement
may vary according to appliance and equipment
options.
ELECTRICAL OUTLETS –
HOUSE 120-VOLT AC
A number of standard household electrical
outlets are provided throughout the coach for
connecting small appliances such as televisions,
radios, toasters, etc.
An exterior outlet is also located on the
outside of the coach near the entrance door or in
a storage compartment on the passenger side of
the coach.
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 condition 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.
