Energy Management System (Ems) - Winnebago Itasca Ellipse Owner's Manual

NOTE: The solar battery charger is not intended
to make the coach battery system
"maintenance free." The solar panel will
not completely compensate for
continuous low amperage draw from
components such as the propane gas leak
detector, the clock in the dash radio and
the radio station memory circuitry, for
example.
Although the solar panel system can help
to extend battery life, the coach shoreline
should be plugged in routinely to "top
off" the batteries. We also recommend
following regular battery inspection and
maintenance, especially in cold weather.
See "Battery Care" in Electrical section.
The solar panel circuit breaker is located in the
shoreline cord compartment.
