Leave the blown fuse in that circuit and have
your camper checked by your Chalet dealer.
120-VOLT POWER CORD
Your RV is equipped with a heavy-duty power
cord for connection to an external 120-volt, 30
amp rated service.
The cord is commonly called the “shore power
cord”. The cord and plug are molded together
to form a weatherproof assembly. Do not cut or
alter the cord in any way. Do not remove the
ground pin from the attachment plug. If you
have to use an adapter to plug into an electrical
service, make sure the ground is maintained.
Never use a two-conductor extension cord, or
any cord that does not assure appropriate and
adequate ground continuity. Use a 30-amp RV
extension cord with a maximum length of 25'.
Never plug the 120-volt cord into an
ungrounded receptacle.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER
A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
protects the galley, and patio 120-volt
receptacles. This device is intended to protect
you against the hazards of line to ground
electric faults and electrical leakage shocks
possible when using appliances in damp areas.
NOTE: The GFCI device does not prevent
electrical shock. It does not protect a person
who comes in contact with both the “hot” and
“neutral” sides of the circuit. It does not
protect you against electrical overload.
TEST the GFCI at least once a month while
operating on 120-volt AC power. To test the
GFCI: Push the TEST button. The RESET
button should pop out, indicating that the
protected circuit has been disconnected.
If the reset button does not pop out when the
test button is pushed, a loss of ground fault
protection is indicated. Do not use the outlet or
other outlets on the same circuit. Have the
camper electrical system checked out at an
authorized Chalet Dealer Service Center. Do
not use the system until the problem has been
corrected.
To restore power, push the RESET button.
NOTE: If the galley or patio receptacles don’t
work, check the GFCI. Reset the button if
necessary. If the GFCI continues to trip, have
the trailers electrical system checked at an
authorized Chalet Dealer Service Center or by
a qualified electrician.
