3. Route the cord through the notch and flip the
hatch back up into place and close the com-
partment door.
Park Fuses or Breakers
Most campgrounds are equipped with a fuse
or circuit breaker at the receptacle. This protects
the park’s wiring, as well as the power cord on
your vehicle, from electrical damage. If electrical
power fails, contact the park attendants and have
them check the fuse or breaker for your supply
receptacle.
After disconnecting the power cord, neatly re-
place it in the storage compartment.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
(EMS)
The energy management system (EMS) mon-
itors the electrical usage of the appliances and
equipment in the coach and distributes the elec-
trical loads to avoid nuisance tripping of the
shoreline circuit breaker. This system works
together with the energy efficient roof air condi-
tioners to allow you to run both roof units at the
same time on a 30-amp shoreline connection.
Please read your Energy Management System
Owners Guide for important information on run-
ning both air conditioner units at the same time*.
This guide will also explain how this system
operates under several conditions, whether 20-
amp, 30-amp or 50-amp connections.
*With 30 amp or optional 50-amp systems
only.
POWER CONVERTER SYSTEM
The power converter changes 110-volt AC
current from the auxiliary generator or the shore-
line into 12-volt DC current for use by 12-volt
equipment in the motor home.
Certain circuits, however, remain unchanged
for use by items which require 110-volt current,
such as the air conditioner(s), the refrigerator in
AC mode, the microwave oven, etc.
Do not
plug the power cord into an
outlet which is not grounded, or adapt
the plug to connect to a receptacle for
which it is not designed.
Be sure that all four prongs of the sup-
ply cord are properly plugged into the
receptacle.
Do not
connect the power cord to an
extension cord.
