If
the power converter
malfunctions
or
requires
service, refer repairs
to
an authorized Fleetwood
Service
Center.
AUXILIARY BATTERY
The auxiliary
battery
is
the
primary source
for
normal living-area needs. Sensing and
switching
circuits
permit
the
vehicle alternator to charge all
batteries
as
required and prevent
the
living
area
12-volt
requirements from depleting the vehicle battery.
NOTE: All living area radios and tape decks
draw
from
the
auxiliary
battery
and extended usage may
discharge it.
An
Auxiliary Battery kill
switch
is located on
the
instrument
panel adjacent
to
the
Auxilary Start
Switch.
This
switch
disconnects
the
Auxiliary Battery
from
the
system. Turn
this
switch
OFF
if
you plan
to
store
the
motor
home
for
over ten days.
Be
sure
this
switch
is set
to
ON
while
you are using
the
motor
home.
FUSES
AND
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
Fuses and circuit breakers
for
both
the
115
volt and
living area 12
volt
systems are located on
the
power
converter.
If
a circuit breaker trips,
or
a fuse blows,
locate
and remove
the
cause of
the
overload before
resetting
the
breaker,
or
replacing
the
fuse.
WARNING:
DO
NOT
INSTALL
12
VOLT
FUSES
WITH
AMPERAGE. RATINGS
GREATER
THAN THAT
SPECIFIED
ON
FUSEBOX.
Fuses for
the
automotive
systems and lighting are
located on a fuse
block
under
the
instrument
panel.
Refer to
the
Chassis Operator's Manual for automotive
fuse
identification
and specifications.
GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER
Bathroom
outlets
and
patio
outlets
are protected
by
a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI). This device is
provided in
compliance
with
ANSI A119.2/NFPA 501C
requirements, and
is
intended
to
protect
you against
28
electrical
shock
possible
when
using
electrical
appliances in the bathroom or damp areas. Should
the'
circuit
or
appliance (electric shaver, hair dryer, etc.)
develop a potential
shock
hazard,
the
GFI
device
will
disconnect
the
outlet,
protecting
you
from
injurious
shock
caused
by
leakage
to
ground.
Your
Owner's Information Kit contains instructional
material
about
the
GFI. Please read
this
information.
Test procedures are
outlined there
that
must
be
followed and documented.
NOTE:
If
the
patio
outlet
doesn't
work,
check
the
GFI. Reset
it if
necessary.
If
the
GFI
continues
to
trip,
have
the
electrical system checked at an authorized
Fleetwood Service Center.
ENTERTAINMENT EQUIPMENT
Instructional material
for
the optional entertainment
system is
included in your
Owner's
Information
Kit.
If
additional
entertainment
equipment
requiring 12
volts
DC
power
is installed in
the
motor
home, obtain
the
12
volt
DC source
from
the
Fused
Battery
Circuit
at
the
power
converter.
If
you install
entertainment
equipment
requiring 12 volts
DC,
be sure
to
install a
choke
filter
with
an
amperage rating
matched
to
the
current requirements
of
the
equipment.
TV
ANTENNA (Optional)
The roof-mounted antenna is designed
for
reception
of
VHF and UHF television signals.
Operating
and
maintenance
instructions
are
included in your
Owner's
Information Kit.
When
getting
ready
to
travel, remember
to
lower
the
antenna and secure
it
to
prevent damage
to
the
antenna,
motor
home roof,
or
objects in
the
path
of
the
antenna, such as overhead wires.
00
NOT
TRAVEL WITH THE ANTENNA RAISED.
NOTE:
THE ANTENNA BOOSTER POWER
SUPPLY
MUST
BE
TURNED
OFF
TO
PREVENT BATTERY
DRAIN. A
RED
INDICATOR LIGHT WILL GLOW WHEN
THE
UNIT
IS
ON.
TV
"Ghosts"
and
FM
"Flutter"
The television and radio systems in your
motor
home have been chosen
to
provide good performance
under many varied
signal conditions. Occasionally,
though, you may experience
"ghosts"
on TV,
or
"flutter"
when
listening
to
FM broadcasts. In
many
cases,
multipath
distortion
is responsible
for
these
phenomena.
Both
television and
FM
signals
are
broadcast at very
high frequencies - from
50
million cycles per second
up
to
the
microwave region. These signals are easily
reflected by buildings, hills, towers, aircraft, and even
other
vehicles. Consequently,
at
any location, a
TV
or FM signal could be occurring
at
your antenna from
not
only
the
broadcast tower,
but
also via several
different
reflected paths.
In
some cases, a reflected
