Your motor home is equipped with a Command Center that allows you to monitor
several systems from one location. For your convenience, the Command Center is
located near the kitchen area. More information on the controls located in the
Command Center will be discussed throughout this manual.

Make certain the external power source you connect the power cord to is a
properly wired 30 amp NEMA TT-30 RV receptacle and not 240 volt AC.
Your motor home is equipped with a 30 amp 120-volt 60hz AC electrical system.
The entire system is designed to operate on 1 leg of 120-volt power at a maximum
current flow of 30 amperes. Exposure to voltages higher or lower than a nominal
120-volts will damage or shorten the service life of the electrical system and
appliances. The 30 amp 120-volt 60hz AC electrical system can be powered by
the 120-volt 60hz utilities found in RV campgrounds or by 120-volt 60hz generator
power.
The following electrical components will only operate when your motorhome is
connected to shore or generator power: 120 to 12-volt power converter, air
conditioner, refrigerator, microwave oven, television(s), home theater system(s),
electric water heater, washer, dryer, fireplace, and appliances plugged into
convenience receptacles.

The 120-volt AC circuit breakers located inside the main load center and inverter
sub-panel protect all 120-volt wiring and components in the motor home from
circuit overloads and short circuits. Should a circuit overload or short circuit occur
the circuit breaker protecting the affected circuit will "trip" preventing the flow of
electricity through that circuit.
If a circuit breaker trips, shut "off" the appliance on that circuit (i.e., central air
conditioner, etc.) and allow the circuit breaker to cool down for a brief period of
time. After the cooling down period, reset the circuit breaker by moving its lever
"off" and then back to the "on" position.
If the circuit breaker re-trips or frequently trips, contact your dealer to have the
electrical problem diagnosed and repaired. A circuit breaker identification label is
permanently attached to the inside surface of the 120-volt load center.
Circuit breakers and fuses will not offer complete protection of the electrical
system in the event of power surge or voltage spike.
Maintenance and Replacement
At the beginning of camping season, inspect the circuit breakers and replace as
needed. Test by turning each circuit breaker "off" and back "on".
