WARNING: The operator of the ARP Control is responsible for knowing the status of the
control at all times, including the self-test functions. The ARP Control is designed to turn itself
on if a power interruption occurs. A power interruption can be as simple as using the RV
Master Power Switch to turn off power during storage of the RV. In this situation, when the
power is restored to the RV, the ARP Control will turn itself on incase the operator forgets to
check the control. The operator must perform the Test of ARP Relay described in this manual
before each outing to confirm function of the ARP Control. Also, brown outs and transient on
the RV 12VDC supply can turn off the ARP Control, these power interruption are due to many
factors which go beyond the scope of this document to describe. Due to brown outs and
transients one needs to confirm that the ARP is functioning on a regular basis.
