Water Pump Control Switch
This rocker switch controls the demand water pump. The
water pump is
pressure sensitive
and starts (with the
switch ON) when
a faucet is open,
causing pressure
in the line to drop.
When the faucet is
closed, pressure
builds in the line
and the pump
stops.
Erroneous indications when checking water levels can be
caused by:
Water with low mineral content. Level is measured
by a very low electrical signal traveling through the
liquid. Some water that is low in mineral content may
not conduct the signal properly. This condition may
be infrequent, but can exist. Check the panel reading
when the fresh water tank is filled. Material trapped
on the sides of the holding tanks may give a full
reading when the tank is empty. Use of a cleaner to
wash out the tank following dumping should help
prevent this condition.
Camper Fuse Panel (12-volt Interior Circuits)
A 12-volt
interior fuse
panel is
installed below
the fridge in the
Power
Distribution
Center to
protect the
interior circuits.
Circuit titles and fuse sizes are all marked inside the
removable access door. If a fuse blows, locate, and correct the
cause. Turn off all lights and motors, and then install a fuse
with the same rating. If fuses continue to blow, a short circuit
is indicated. Have the system checked by your Nücamp RV
Dealer.
Fuses
All the electrical circuits in your camper have fuses to protect
them from short or overload. If something electrical in your
camper stops working, the first thing you should check is for a
blown fuse. Determine from the diagram on the fuse panel,
which fuse or fuses control that component. Check those fuses
first, but check all fuses before deciding that a blown fuse is
not the cause. Replace any fuses and check the component’s
operation.
Do not install fuses with amperage ratings greater than that
specified on the label. (Unless you Notify Nücamp RV and
they indicate it’s safe to do so) Replacing a fuse with one that
has a higher rating greatly increases the chances of damaging
the electrical system. If you do not have a replacement fuse
with the proper rating for the circuit, install one with a lower
rating until you can replace it with the proper rated fuse.
If the replacement fuse of the same rating blows in a short
time. Leave the blown fuse in that circuit and have your
camper checked by your Nücamp RV Dealer.
Solar Panel
The solar panel plugs into the solar ready connector. The solar
panel is designed to “trickle charge” your battery system. It is
not intended to be a fast charger. It also cannot supply large
amounts of current to operate 12-volt DC electrical equipment.
NOTE: Weather conditions will affect the charging rate of the
solar panel. Refer to the solar panel manual supplied in your
Solar Information Package.
120-volt Power Cord
Your camper is equipped with a heavy-duty power cord for
connection to an external 120-volt, 30 amps rated service. The
cord is commonly called the “shore cord”. The cord and plug
are molded together to form a weatherproof assembly. DO
NOT cut or alter the cord in any way. DO NOT remove the
ground pin from the attachment plug. If you must use an
adapter to plug into an electrical service, make sure the ground
is maintained.
Never use a two-conductor extension cord, or any cord that
does not assure appropriate and adequate ground continuity.
Use a 30-amp RV extension cord with a maximum length of
25’.
Never plug the 120-volt cord into an ungrounded
receptacle.
Shore power poses a risk of death due to
electrocution.
Always use a grounded connection.
Never connect to an ungrounded source of shore
power.
Never remove the “third prong” from the shore
power plug.
Risk of fire.
Connect only to source of correct voltage.
Do not overload electrical circuits.
Do not use an extension cord to connect to shower
power.
Replace fuses with like rating.
