':, battery system and will start the generator
automatically if the voltage falls below
11.5 volts.

mostat of the air conditioning system and
starts the auxiliary generator, if the temper-
ature rises to the preset level requiring
conditioning.

ELECTRICAL WIRING DIAGRAMS
Because of the many model, floor plans and
option variations available, it is beyond the
scope of this manual to include wiring dia-
grams. In certain situations, specific wiring
diagrams may be available to help troubleshoot
a problem. If you need specific wiring informa-
tion, please contact your dealer. Complete
wiring diagrams are not available.
MOTOR HOME FUSES AND
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The 120-volt circuit breakers and 12-volt fuses
are located on separate panels. The purpose of
these panels is to provide electrical circuit
breakers and fuses to interrupt current flow if a
circuit is overloaded. See the American Coach
Information section in this manual for the
locations of breaker and fuse panels used in
yourRV.
