LIGHTING SYSTEM
All the lighting throughout the Motor Home
is on the 12-volt system. Some of these lights
contain a three-way switch which allows a
choice in the amount of light given off. The
switches to these lights are located on the light
fixture itself .
A panel of light switches is located near the
entrance door. These switches operate the porch
light, the door courtesy light, and the aisle lights
(if vehicle is so equipped) .
A step light near the entrance door is designed
to automatically come on when the entrance
door is opened.
MONITOR PANEL
The optional Motor Home Monitor Panel is
a series of four gauges located at eye level in
the living area. Included are
L .P. GAS-This gauge is designed to indicate
the amount of liquid petroleum gas remain-
ing in the tank.
BATTERY VOLTS-During operation, the
indicator should remain in the center seg-
ment of the dial to indicate normal battery
condition . If the indicator shows less than
11-volts, an under-charge condition exists in
the living area battery and a recharge is
required.
WATER TANK-This gauge is designed to
indicate the amount of water rE mining in
the living area water tank .

switch located on the face of the panel . This
switch has three positions ; "ON," "OFF," and
"MOMENTARY ON ." An indicator light glows
when gauges are operating .
ONAN MOTOR GENERATOR

see the carbon monoxide caution at the begin-
ning of this section .

all 120-volt appliances without an external

be independent of an external power source . The

partment in the left rear corner of the vehicle .
The unit is mounted on slides and can be
pulled out like a drawer for ease in servicing the
unit . To slide out the unit depress the buttons on
the two latches . Then pull up on safety latch in
