Electrical Systems
!
WARNING
Do not modify the generator installation or exhaust
system in any way.
Do not use the generator as an emergency power
source to a general residential or industrial utility line.
This is illegal and may cause shock or electrocution
to power line utility personnel attempting to repair
power lines.
!
WARNING
Do not block the generator ventilating air inlets or
outlets. The engine re quires a constant supply of
cooling air. Restricted ventilating air inlets or outlets
can cause engine failure.
!
WARNING
Exhaust gases are deadly. Inspect the generator
exhaust system thoroughly before starting the gen-
erator engine. Do not block the tail pipe or situate the
motor home in a place where the exhaust gases have
any possibility of accumulating either outside, under-
neath, or inside your vehicle or any nearby vehicles.
Outside air movements can carry exhaust gases
inside the vehicle through windows or other openings
remote from the generator exhaust. Operate the gen-
erator only when safe dispersion of exhaust gases
can be assured, and monitor outside conditions to
be sure that exhaust gases continue to be dispersed
safely.
!
WARNING
When operating the on-board generator for electri-
cal power and using the overhead kitchen vent fan,
regardless of the outside temperature, open a win-
dow "sightly". This wil reduce the chances of draw-
ing harmful Carbon Monoxide into the passenger
compartment.

Generator Fuel Supply

Fuel for the gasoline or diesel generator is taken
from the main fuel tank through a special feeder
tube which is higher in the tank than the feeder
tube to the motor home engine. This arrange-
ment prevents the generator from running the
motor home fuel tank dry.

Propane Generator
Fuel is provided from a dedicated Propane tank.

Generator Operations

To start the generator:
1. Press generator remote switch until generator
is running.
2. To stop the unit, press switch and release.
If the generator is slow to start, DO NOT hold
the switch in the START position for more than
10 seconds. Release the switch, wait 15 seconds,
NOTE
3
Refer to the generator operating instructions provided
in your Owner's Information Package for informa-
tion before starting the generator. Do not start the
generator unit with a heavy power load. Always wait
at least three minutes after starting generator before
turning on (or plugging in) heavy electrical loads, such
as the roof air conditioner.
then try to start again. This will help avoid over-
heating and damage to the generator starting
system .
