Chassis Battery
The chassis (starting) battery is located in a
compartment “well” in the floor beneath carpet
ahead of the driver seat.
Chassis Battery Connector
The chassis battery connector is located to the
right of the accelerator pedal in the driver side
foot well.
NOTE: Ensure that the ignition key is in the Off
position and the key is removed, and wait
10 minutes before disconnecting.
Further Information
See the chassis manual provided in your
InfoCase for details on access and servicing.
BATTERY CARE
Lead-acid type batteries are electro-chemical
devices for storing and releasing electrical
charge. As such, they are simply an electrical
reservoir, not an electrical source. As soon as
energy is removed from the battery, it should be
replaced by the engine alternator or the coach
converter system.
If a battery sits unused for 30 days or more,
especially during warm weather, it can develop a
deposit of sulfate crystals on the metal plates
inside the battery. This condition is called
“sulfating” and prevents the battery from either
releasing or accepting a charge. If this condition
occurs, the battery must be replaced.
If a battery does not contain at least 80%
charge during freezing temperatures, the
electrolyte can freeze and crack the battery case.
Step cover must be closed and latched.
Failure can cause injury.
NOTICE
Always refasten battery retainers when
returning a battery to the compartment.
