When it is time to replace the auxiliary battery,
replace it with a Group 27 deep cycle battery
only. Contact the battery OEM for further
information. Do not reverse the positive and
negative battery cables (doing so will blow the
reverse polarity fuse(s) that protect the
converter).
BATTERY ISOLATOR FOR YOUR TOW
VEHICLE (CUSTOMER SUPPLIED)
You may want to consider the installation of a
battery isolator on your tow vehicle as a
convenience feature:
0
It receives current from the tow vehicle
alternator and controls distribution of
energy to both the auxiliary battery and the
tow vehicle battery.
0
It serves as a check valve to prevent
energy from being drawn from your tow
vehicle chassis battery (so you can start
your tow vehicle engine).
Your dealer can assist you with the selection,
purchase and installation of this aftermarket
part.
12-VOLT FUSE PANEL
The 12-volt fuse panel is labeled to indicate
the fuse sizes, positions and components
powered. At the beginning of camping season,
inspect all the 12-volt fuses and replace as
needed.
Replacing a fuse
Before replacing a fuse, always turn OFF the
electrical component(s) protected by it.
1. Disconnect the power cord.
2. If so equipped, disconnect the auxiliary
battery negative cable at the battery.
3. Remove the fuse panel cover to check
fuses.
4. Pull the fuse straight out of the fuse block.
If the fuse is not blown, something else
must be causing the problem. Please
contact your dealer for further assistance.
5. Insert a new fuse of the same specified
voltage, amperage rating and type in the
original location. Never use a higher
rated replacement fuse.
The fuse panel label should be kept
permanently affixed to your RV. The fuses will
not offer complete protection of the RV
electrical system in the event of a power surge
or spike.
12-VOLT DC OUTLET
(IF SO EQUIPPED)
There may be a 12-volt DC outlet (not
applicable on all models) in your RV. When the
12-volt DC outlet socket is used as a power
source for an electric appliance, make sure
that the electric appliance operates at 12-volts
and has an electric capacity of 60 (5 amps)
watts or less. Cap the 12-volt DC outlet when it
is not in use as the socket might become
clogged by foreign material and become
short-circuited.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM – 30 AMP
WARNING
Replacement fuses must be of the same
voltage, amperage rating and type. Never
use a higher rated replacement fuse; doing
so may cause a fire by overheating the RV
wiring.
