BATTERY CUT-OFF SWITCH
The battery cut-off switch is located inside next to the entry door. This switch
controls the 12 Volt DC power to the domestic fuse panel. The switch locks into
the center position to prevent interior DC power from being accidentally turned
on or off. When the switch is activated, power is supplied to all interior DC
lighting and DC operated appliances. Some appliances will require both DC and
AC power to operate, such as the roof air conditioner. This switch is helpful
when dry camping to conserve house battery power. Refrigerator and inverter
operation are unaffected by the operation of this switch. When the interior house
power is off, there are still parasitic loads on the house batteries, and therefore is
not a substitute for the main battery disconnect switch.
To Turn the Interior Power On or Off:
• Simultaneously push the spring-loaded lock down and push the switch.
CAUTION:
To avoid flash damage to electrical contacts, turn off the interior lighting before acti-
vating or deactivating the battery cut-off switch.
SHORE POWER HOOK-UP
The power requirement for the motorhome is 50 Amp 120/240
Volt AC single phase. The shore cord is stored in the rear roadside
compartment. If 50 Amp shore power service is available, connect the
supplied shore power cord. If less than 50 Amp service is available,
electrical adapters will be required.
CAUTION:
Avoid flash damage to the electrical system contacts.
Before plugging the motorhome into shore power, starting
the generator or using the inverter make sure all the
appliances are off.
W
ARNING:
Keep fingers away from metal contacts of the shore plug
end. Do Not stand in water when making electrical con-
nections. Serious electrical shock and personal injury can
occur. To avoid the risk of electrical shock, turn the cir-
cuit breaker off at the power supply outlet before making
the shore power connection.
CAUTION:
Do not remove cover from shore power supply to troubleshoot electricity to the
motorhome. Serious personal injury or death may occur. If there is no power to the
motorhome inform the park manager. It is the park manager's responsibility to fix
problems with the shore power hook-up.
