If a battery charger is installed with the converter, auxiliary
batteries will be brought up to full charge and maintained
19
by the battery charger as long as 115-volt power is available.
Maximum battery charge rate is 3 amps. See Owner's Information
Kit for operation and maintenance instructions.
FUSES
A fuse block behind the driver's seat has the fuses for tail
lights, running lights and other exterior lights circuits.
Fuses for the motor home chassis circuit are located on a
panel near the instrument panel. See your Chassis Opera-
tor's Manual for further information. Optional equipment
may have additional fuses installed. Refer to the equipment
instructions for information.
NOTE:
If fuse replacement is necessary, replace with fuses
of the same amperage rating.
AUXILIARY 12-VOL T BATTERY
The auxiliary battery is the primary source for normal living-
area needs. Sensing and switching circuits permit the vehicle
alternator to charge both batteries as required and prevent the
living area 12-volt requirements from depleting the vehicle
battery.
NOTE:
All radio and tape decks draw from the vehicle battery
and extended usage may discharge it.
AUXILIARY GENERATOR POWER PLANT (Optional)
The engine-driven 115-volt generator power plant
is located in a special compartment. This generator option
has a self-starting system which includes the auxiliary battery.
Controls are at the generator and at a remote control panel
located inside the motor home.
The 115-volt output of the generator is connected directly to
a receptacle located inside the power cord storage
compartment. With the generator power plant operating and the
power cord plugged into this receptacle, power is conducted
through the circuit breaker panel to supply all of the
115-volt power requirements of the motor home, just as if
the cord were connected to an external power sou rce.
Gasoline for the generator is taken from the main fuel tank
through a special feeder tube which is higher in the tank
than the feeder tube to the motor-home by accidentally
permitting the generator to run the fuel tank dry.
This prevents the generator from running the motor
home fuel tank dry.
NOTE:
Refer to your Generator Power Plant Manu-'
facturer's Instruction Manual (provided in your
Owner's Information Kit) for service information
before starting the generator. Do not start unit
with a heavy power load. Always wait at least three
minutes after starting generator before turning on
(or plugging in) heavy electrical loads. (Example:
When optional roof air conditioner is installed.)
