3-Port Solar Cap
(Located on the roof)
Single Solar Port
–If Equipped
The Single Solar Port (located at ground level)
is for using a portable solar panel, it has a
maximum input rating of 150 Watts. The Single
Solar Port is connected to the coach batteries
through the solar charge controller (located on an
exterior sidewall or inside an exterior
compartment, depending on model). When
connecting a portable solar panel, a separate solar
charge controller is not needed and will reduce
the effectiveness of the portable solar panel.

NOTE: The Solar Charge Panel is not intended
to make the coach battery system
"maintenance free." The solar panel will
not completely compensate for
continuous low amperage draw from
components such as the propane gas leak
detector, the dash radio clock, and the
APPLIANCES AND SYSTEMS
radio station memory circuitry, for
example.
Although the Solar Charge Panel can
help to extend battery life, the coach
shoreline should be plugged in routinely
to "top off" the batteries. We also
recommend following regular battery
inspection and maintenance, especially
in cold weather.
See "Battery Care" in Section 6 -
Electrical.
