12-volt accessories.
Special deep-cycle, high capacity house batteries provide 12-
volt DC power. These batteries are not the chassis 12-volt
batteries. Power is also provided by a DC converter that
operates when the motor home main electrical cord is
plugged into 120-volt AC power source. The house batteries
are charged by the motor home engine alternator, the con-
verter when it is operating, or the generator (if equipped).
Your motor home has two battery systems. One system sup-
plies 12-volt DC power to start the vehicle engine and gener-
ator. The other system supplies 12-volt DC power to the
house living area.
Some accessories or equipment such as clocks, radios or the
refrigerator may draw small amounts of current even when
turned OFF. A relay-operated disconnect system allows you
to disconnect either the chassis battery or the coach battery
or both. Disconnecting the batteries will help reduce the like-
lihood of battery discharge over long storage periods.
