Your
new
Jayco
tent camper
is
equipped
with
a
15-amp
power cord
ro connect
from
the campground outlet to your camper, the power
cord is pre-wired into the distribution panel with a 15-amp
overcurrent protection breaker and then supplies 120-volt
AC
to the
12-volt
DC
power convertor.
To prevent accidental electrical shock, insure that the ground pin
on
the
attachment
plug
cap
is intact to the earth ground through
the
R.V.
park
receptacle.
When
plugged into
a
receptacle with no
provision for the third pin, use
an
adapter with a pigtail
that
can
be
connected to the receptacle box,
with the grounding circuit
completed through the ground pin
or
R.V.
park receptacle box, any
accidental short
of
a
live circuit conductor will trip the circuit
breaker indicating
a
shorted circuit. You should be certain that
the
polarity
of
the external power
is
not
reversed, in order to avoid
harm
to
appliances and personal electrical shock. Polarity
indicators may
be
purchased in many electrical and hardware
stores.

unused portion of an extension cord in a coil as
it
will
overheat
and
short out wires.
