Operation Warnings and Cautions

WARNING
The exhaust of all internal combus-
tion engines contains carbon monox-
ide (CO). This poisonous gas is
colorless, odorless, tasteless, and
lighter than air. The exhaust systems
of both your motor home engine and
your generator engine have been
installed with your safety in mind.
However, certain precautions must be
taken when using them to protect
yourself from conditions beyond the
control of the manufacturer.
1. Do not simultaneously operate the generator
engine and a ventilator which could draw
exhaust gases into the vehicle.
2. Do not open windows or ventilators on the
end or side of the vehicle where exhaust pipe
of the generator is located.
3. Park the vehicle so that the wind will carry
the exhaust away from the vehicle. Also,
note the position of other vehicles to be sure
their exhaust will not enter your vehicle.
4. Do not operate the generator engine when
parked if vegetation, snow, buildings, vehi-
cles, or any other object can deflect the
exhaust under or into the vehicle.
Check auxiliary generator oil level frequently
during periods of use. Refer to the generator
manufacturer's information in your Owner Info-
Case for specific recommendations.
WARNING
Never check generator oil level while
generator engine is running.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS

12-VOLT DC SYSTEM

The DC voltage system consists of the auto-
motive batteries and the 12-volt coach auxiliary
batteries.
12-Volt Circuit Breakers
All 12-volt circuits and equipment in the
coach area of the motor home are protected by a
circuit breaker panel. When a circuit is over-
loaded or a short develops in any part of the sys-
tem, a breaker will shut down that circuit. If this
happens, turn off all affected lights or appliances
and reset the breaker.
A label on the panel states the amperage rat-
ing and circuit protected for each breaker.
The House 12-Volt Breaker Panel is located
behind the small cabinet door near the galley or
below the refrigerator.

may vary according to appliance and equipment options. Fuses
and breakers are labeled on panel.
AUTOMOTIVE 12-VOLT FUSES
AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The automotive fuses and breakers are conve-
niently located behind the panel on the face of the
top entrance step.
The circuit breakers will pop outward if they
are tripped. Simply push in to reset.
