The. converter will automatically supply 12-volt power when
your motor home is operating on
120-volt from the generator
or a public utility.
It
will also charge the coach and chassis
batteries.
Several receptacles, including the bathroom, galley and patio
120-volt electrical outlets, are protected by a
Ground
Fault
Circuit
Interrupter
(GFCI). This device
is
intended to pro-
tect you against the hazards
of
electrical shocks possible
when using electrical appliances in the bathroom or galley or
in damp areas. Should a circuit or appliance (electric shaver,
hair dryer, etc.) develop a potential shock hazard, the GFCI
device is designed to disconnect the outlet (and other outlets
on the same circuit), limiting your exposure time.
Test
the
GFCI
at
least once a
month.
To
test
the
GFCI,
connect to 120-volt AC:
1.
Push the TEST button. The RESET button should pop out,
indicating that the protected circuit has been disconnected.
2.
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 any electrical outlets. Have the motor home electri-
cal
system checked at an authorized Fleetwood Service
Center or by a
qualified electrician. Do not use the system
until the problem has been corrected.
3.
To
restore power push the RESET button.
Your Owner's Information Package contains a card that can
be used to record test dates. Keep the card in a conspicuous
place and keep it up
to
date.

WARNING
Do
not install 12-volt
