Auxiliary Battery
Whether factory installed or customer purchased, your auxiliary (house) batteries are typically
located in a separately vented compartment or storage box. Be sure you know the location of
your batteries before leaving your selling dealership. It is important to keep your motorhome
batteries fully charged at all times. We recommend turning OFF lights and other 12 volts DC
(VDC) components when they are not being used. To prevent draining your motorhome
batteries, connect the motorhome to a 120 volts AC power source whenever possible.
Testing the Batteries
Keep sparks, cigarettes and ames away from the batteries as the hydrogen gas
they create may explode.
Do not connect a booster battery or other power source that outputs more than
14.2-volts DC to the motorhome batteries.
Use adequate ventilation when charging or using batteries in an enclosed space.
Remove metal jewelry and always wear eye protection when working around
batteries.
