ELECTRICAL
Shut off the equipment (example: roof air
conditioner) and allow a brief cooling period.
Then reset the breaker by moving the switch to
"Off" and back to "On". If the breaker is
continually tripped and no overload is evident,
have the system checked for a short in the wiring
or the appliances.
The breaker panels are located behind a door
or pull-off panel on a lower cabinet face in either
the galley or lounge area or beneath the rear bed.
Typical view of breaker panel. Breakers are
labeled on panel. Arrangement may vary

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER
Bath, galley and exterior outlets are connected
to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter),
which is an extremely sensitive circuit breaker
that will help to protect against severe electrical
shock if a ground fault develops. If such a
condition occurs, the GFCI will break the circuit
by turning off the power to the protected outlets.
Should this occur, unplug all the appliances on
that circuit and press the reset button on the GFCI
equipped outlet.
If the GFCI keeps tripping, have the electrical
system checked and repaired, if necessary, before
using again.

WARNING
The GFCI will not completely eliminate
the risk of electrical shock. Small children
and persons with heart conditions or other
disabilities which make them especially
sensitive to electrical shock may still be
injured by a 120-volt receptacles even
though protected by a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter.
