Plugging in the Shore Cord Power Supply:
• Located in the roadside compartment is the shore power cord.
• Manually extend a sufficient amount of cable to reach the power
supply. If 30 Amp service is not available, install the proper electrical
adapter(s) to the cord.
• Always turn off the shore power breaker to the power supply before
connecting or disconnecting the shore cord. This will prevent an
accidental shock and flashing of electrical contacts.
• After the connection is made, turn the shore power breaker on. The
transfer switch should make an audible click.
• Go inside the motorhome to verify AC power is available. The
“AC IN” light on the inverter remote panel should be lit and the
microwave display should be lit.
After connecting the motorhome to shore power, wait approximately one
minute for the inverter/charger or converter to "stabilize" charging of the batteries
before starting air conditioners or other large AC loads. In the instance 50 Amp
service is not available, use caution not to overload the supplied shore service
breaker. Operate appliances and outlets in sequence rather than all at the same time.
Disconnecting the Shore Cord:
• Turn off all AC appliances. This will prevent accidental shock and
flashing of electrical contacts when disconnecting.
• Turn off the shore power breaker.
• Grasp housing of electrical cord. Without touching electrical contacts,
work cord out and away from socket.
• Straighten and clean cord.
• Stow in Compartment.
