12-VOLT FUSES
The 12-volt fuses are located in the Load Center. They are labeled to indicate fuse
sizes, positions and the components powered. At the beginning of camping
season, inspect all the 12-volt fuses in the Load Center and replace as needed.
Replacing a fuse
Before replacing a fuse, always turn off electrical component(s) protected by it.
1. Disconnect the shore power cord.
2. Disconnect the RV auxiliary battery main negative battery cable.
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 is used as a power source for an electric appliance, make
sure that the appliance operates on 12-volt DC power and that it consumes less
than 60 watts (5 amps) of 12-volt power. To prevent short circuits do not allow
metallic foreign matter to get into the 12-volt DC outlet.
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.
