Generator; Power Step Override - Roadtrek Sprinter Owner's Manual

Your vehicle's electrical system should not be subjected to changes and / or additions to circuitry, appliances, etc.
without consulting your dealer or Roadtrek for proper installation procedures.
Failure to do this could result in serious safety issues or component damage. Changes to the electrical system run
the risk of voiding the warranty.
110 / 12V INVERTER / CHARGER / DISTRIBUTION PANEL:
For your convenience when camping in parks with hookups for 110V power, (shore power), all our models have in
the electrical system a 110/12 volt distribution panel / inverter / charger. The inverter/charger provides 12 volt
power for the 12 volt appliances and the inverter provides 110 volt power for the galley receptacle and the
audio/video receptacle. The inverter/charger also charges the auxiliary battery(s) present in the system.
See "Floor Plan & Appliance Location" for the distribution/inverter/charger location. To open the distribution panel
simply pull on the access door until the cover is released. All of the 110 volt circuit breakers and 12 volt fused
circuits are identified inside the distribution panel, (behind the distribution panel access door).
EXTERNAL ELECTRICAL SOURCE CONNECTION:
Your vehicle is equipped with a heavy duty 30 amp. shore power cord so that you can connect your electrical
system to an outside 110V, (30 amp) power source.
The power cord is removable and can be stored in the rear of the vehicle. The connector for the shore cord is
located in the rear driver side runningboard (see picture G-P19), adjacent to the Cable connector.
NOTICE: Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the power cord.
A 30 to 15 amp. adapter is not included with your vehicle.
NOTICE: When connecting your system to an external power source, ensure that a properly equipped,
(three pronged) and functioning receptacle is used. If any type of spark or shock is detected, disconnect
from the source immediately and do not reconnect until the problem is corrected.

GENERATOR:

All service requirements are listed in the Onan Owner's Manual.
The generator is located and accessed from the underside of the van behind the rear axle of your vehicle.
CAUTION: When launching a boat, (using your Roadtrek), it is important to note that the generator must not
be submerged in water. This will permanently damage the generator. If you cannot launch without submerging
the generator, an alternate method would be to use a boat launching service.
Note: The Propane generator on the Sprinter units runs on Propane from the same Propane tank as the appliances.
POWER STEP OVERRIDE SWITCH
The power side entry step functions with the opening and closing of the sliding side entry door. An override switch
is located at the front pillar of the sliding door which allows the step to be left open when the door is closed. This
switch is itself overridden when the vehicle is started.
