Generator Fuel; Resetting The Circuit Breaker - Monaco Cayman 2005 Owner's Manual

There is always a possibility fuel may be contaminated. Diesel fuel may contain water or a
microbe growth (black slime). Any contamination of fuel will greatly reduce the total output of the gen-
erator, and may cause erratic AC output.
NOTE:
The motorhome manufacturer does not cover damage to the generator caused by fuel
contamination, or to appliances due to erratic AC voltage.

If a circuit breaker trips in the main AC breaker panel, or on the generator control panel, there
may be a short circuit or too much load.
NOTE:
The generator will continue to run after a circuit breaker trips.
If a circuit breaker trips, disconnect or turn off as many loads as possible. To reset the circuit breaker,
switch the circuit breaker to OFF; then switch back to ON to reconnect the circuit. If the circuit breaker
immediately trips, the electrical distribution system has a short or the circuit breaker is faulty. Call a
qualified electrician. If the circuit breaker does not trip, reconnect a combination of loads that will not
overload the generator or cause the circuit breaker to trip again. Remember to compensate for elevation
and temperature changes when re-connecting loads.
NOTE:
An appliance or load may have a short if it causes a circuit breaker to trip after re-
connecting. DO NOT continue to reset breaker. Have the problem corrected before
resuming operation.
