Residual current device
Thestandardversionofyourvehicleisequippedwitha
residualcurrentdevicethatwillinterrupttheelectriccircuitin
caseofapossibleresidualcurrent.Shouldtherebeamal-
function,thepassengercircuitbreakeropenstheentire230V
circuit.Inmostcases,suchamalfunctioniscausedbyade-
fectpieceofelectricequipmentoradefectinitssupplyline.

Whenobtainingelectricityviaacabledrum,thismustbe
completelyunwound,asotherwiseinductionmaycause
thecabletoheatup,whichcouldleadtoburning.
(Providedthereisnoprotectionagainstoverheating)
The230Vmainsconnectioninthemotorhomehasbeen
designedforatotalpowerconsumptionof3000W.Ifaddi-
tionaldevicesrequiringelectricityareconnected,suchasa
waterheater,etc.,youmustensurethatthiselectricpower
valueisnotexceeded,takingotherelectricalequipment
inuse,suchastherefrigerator,therme,etc.,intoaccount.
