HOUSE
AND
AUTOMOTIVE
SYSTEM
Special deep-cycle, high capacity house batteries provide
12-volt DC power. These batteries are not the chassis 12-volt
batteries.
Power is also provided by a DC converter that
operates when the motor home main electrical cord is
plugged into 120-volt
AC
power source. The house batteries
are charged by the motor home engine alternator, the
con-
verter when it is operating, or the generator (if equipped).
Your motor home has two battery systems.
One system sup-
plies 12-volt DC power to start the vehicle engine and gener-
ator. The other system supplies 12-volt DC power to the
house living area.
Some accessories or equipment such as clocks, radios or the
refrigerator may draw small amounts
of
current even when
turned
OFF. A relay-operated disconnect system allows you
to disconnect either the chassis battery or the coach battery
or both. Disconnecting the batteries will help reduce the
like-
lihood
of
battery discharge over long storage periods.
