Shore Power
Power cord is located inside the exterior storage compartment on the left at the front. It is
designed to connect into a 30A (120 V) power outlet at a campground or at home. The other end
of the cord must be connected to the round plug located over the wheel well, on the left side of
the trailer.
NOTE: To plug the ALTO on a 15A outlet, you will need a 30A to 15A adapter (not supplied)
(photo C-1).
When operating with city power, make absolutely sure that the service is 120 volts and not
240 volts.
When the three-pronged plug on the shoreline cord is used for shoreline power, there will be no
problem with proper polarity or grounding. In some older parks and other locations where three
pronged outlets are not available, certain precautions to ensure proper grounding and polarity
must be taken.
These precautions are listed below:
• Attach the three-pronged plug to a two-pronged adapter. The third conductor line of
this adapter has a short wire lead, which must be grounded.
• For proper grounding connect the short ground lead to a grounded outlet box or to a
cold-water pipe. When no water pipe is available, drive a metal rod two feet into the
ground and attach the ground lug to it, thus providing the unit with proper grounding.
To operate self-contained, simply disconnect the power supply cable.
