Solar Power - Airstream LAND YACHT MOTORHOME Owner's Manual

AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT GAS

SOLAR POWER

The 5 watt system installed in your motorhome primarily function is as a battery maintainer. Memory
functions in radios, locks and the circuit boards in some safety devices each draw power in the milliamp
range. If a charge source is not available, even these miniscule power drains will run your chassis batteries
down in a few days. Barring an unusual number of cloudy days the solar system will keep your chassis
batteries in pretty good condition.
Turning your auxiliary battery switch off at the dash will help maintain the charge in both the chassis and
coach batteries.
