SECTION 6-ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS JAYCO TOWABLE
SOLAR PREP
Your recreation vehicle has been wired with a
(exterior) plug in that will allow the batteries to be
trickle charged using a free standing solar panel. The
solar panel kit is a customer purchased and installed
option and is not supplied by Jayco.
REPLACING LIGHT BULBS
Before replacing a bulb, be sure the light is off. Do not touch the glass part of the new
bulb with your bare fingers. The skin oil left on the glass will evaporate when the bulb
gets hot, the vapor will condense on the reflector and it will dim the surface.
Replacement light bulbs must be of the type, voltage and wattage listed on the lamp
fixture. Use of incorrectly sized bulbs can overload lam circuits and may create a fire
hazard by overheating the fixture.
120-VOLT (30 AMP) AC SYSTEM (IF SO EQUIPPED)
Your recreation vehicle may be equipped with a 30 amp 120-volt 60hz AC electrical
system. The entire system is designed to operate on 1 leg of 120-volt power at a maximum
current flow of 30 amperes.
Exposure to voltages higher or lower than a nominal 120-volts will damage or shorten the
service life of the electrical system and appliances. The 30 amp 120-volt 60hz AC
electrical system can be powered by the 120-volt 60hz utilities found in RV campgrounds
or by 120-volt 60hz generator power.
The following electrical components will only operate when your motorhome is connected
to shore or generator power: 120 to 12-volt power converter, air conditioner, refrigerator,
microwave oven, television(s), home theater system(s), electric water heater, washer,
dryer, fireplace, and appliances plugged into convenience receptacles.
WARNING
Make certain the external power source you connect the power cord to is a properly
wired 30 amp NEMA TT-30 RV receptacle and not 240 volt AC.
WARNING
Circuit breakers and fuses will not offer complete protection of the electrical system
in the event of power surge or voltage spike.
