If
your motor home is equipped with roof air conditioners, the
front unit will have a solar panel. The solar charging panel is
designed to
"trickle-charge" your battery system.
It
is not
intended to be a fast charger.
It
also cannot supply large
amounts
of
current to operate 12-volt DC electrical equip-
ment. When the sky is clear and under bright sun, the solar
panel will help keep your batteries
"topped-up." Do not try to
operate 12-volt DC appliances with the output
of
the solar
panel. A light on the monitor panel indicates when the solar
panel is operating.
The panel can be expanded with optional expansion panels.
Contact your dealer for more information on these optional
panels.
When the battery requires replacement, always choose a
battery with the same physical and electrical characteristics as
the original equipment. Your dealer
or
an authorized Fleet-
wood Service Center can advise you on proper battery
selection.
You
can use the Auxiliary Start System to start the motor
home engine with the coach battery
if
the chassis battery is
discharged. The
Auxiliary Start System has no effect on the
vehicle except to aid in starting the motor home engine.
If the
vehicle alternator is operating properly, the batteries will be
charged while driving.
To
use the Auxiliary Start System:
1.
Be sure the motor home is stopped. Shift the transmission to
P and
apply the parking brake.
2. Press and hold the Auxiliary Start switch on the instrument
panel.
3.
Start the engine with the ignition switch.
4.
Release the Auxiliary Start switch.
