Your motorhome is equipped with an inverter/
charger which is capable of supplying 120-volt power
to two branch circuits when the unit is not plugged into
shore power. An Inverter Freedom Remote Control
Panel is mounted at the Electric Control Center on
the wall in the hallway. The LED bar graphs on the
remote control panel show battery voltage and DC
current in both inverter and charger modes. The
inverter also charges the coach batteries when
the unit is plugged into shore power or when the
generator is running. The invert mode and charge
mode must be manually selected using the control
module located in the hallway. Refer to operator's
