Battery Access (Storage) - Winnebago Sunflyer Manual

Solar Charging Indicator
NOTE: The solar battery charger is not intended
to make the coach battery system "main-
tenance free." The solar panel will not
completely compensate for continuous
low amperage draw from components
such as the LP gas leak detector, the
clock in the dash radio and the radio sta-
tion 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.
Your coach is pre-wired for adding a roof
mounted solar charger panel if your coach is not
already equipped with this option. Because the
2-pin snap connectors are designed to connect
the optional solar panel and charge indicator, we
recommend that you obtain the correct compo-
nents from your Winnebago Industries autho-
rized dealer. (Panel: Winnebago P/N 115504-01-
000/ Indicator: P/N 115505-01-000)
See your dealer for proper installation.
BATTERY INFORMATION
The coach batteries are "deep-cycle" type bat-
teries specially designed for recreational vehicle
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS
use. They will provide longer lasting power than
standard automotive batteries, and will withstand
the frequent drain-and-recharge cycles that occur
under the demanding conditions of a camping
outing.
BATTERY ACCESS
The batteries are located beneath the 2nd
entrance step. Unhook the latch assembly fasten-
ing the top step and remove.

*NOTE: The chassis batteries for models on
Freightliner diesel chassis are located in
a compartment on the left side of the ve-
hicle to the rear of the rear wheels. Two
coach batteries are standard.
