• If you should feel even the slightest of electrical shock, immediately disconnect the unit
from the 120- VAC power source and locate the electrical fault (i.e.: typically, it is a break
in the grounding circuit).
• Do not reconnect the 120-VAC power until after that electrical fault is fixed. The ground-
ing circuit must be continuous from the frame to the distribution panel, to the power
cord, and to the earth ground so that electrical-shock protection is realized.

12V USB REcEPTAcLES

The RV is equipped with USB ports conveniently located throughout. These ports allow
for easy access when charging cell phones, laptop computers, iPods, iPads, tablets or other
electronics.

GFcI REcEPTAcLES

Grounding is your personal protection from electrical shock. Each RV has a ground fault
current interrupter (GFCI) engineered into the electrical system. This device has been
designed to reduce the possible injury caused by electric shock. The GFCI will not protect
against short circuits or circuit overloads.
• A tripped GFCI receptacle indicates that abnormally high 120-volt current flow (a ground
fault) was detected through the electrical system grounding circuit.
A fault condition can be caused by faulty wire insulation, wet wiring inside an appliance, or
faulty electrical equipment connected to the circuit, etc. All ground faults must be repaired
before use of the RV.
Test all GFcI receptacles monthly
• Push in the TEST button. This should pop out the RESET button, indicating the GFCI
receptacle has been tripped. This will interrupt 120-volt power.
