WARNING
Before removing any battery cables or
battery, make sure all 12-volt equip-
ment in the motor home is off and the
power cord has been disconnected.
Replace any damaged cables at once.
Always remove jewelry and wear pro-
tective clothing and eye covering
when checking or handling batteries
Refasten the retainer strap when
returning the battery to the compart-
ment.
• Clean and tighten battery terminals and have
the specific gravity checked at least once a
year.
• Every two months, or more often in hot
weather, check the battery fluid level. Fill to
approximately 3/8 inch above the plates. DO
NOT OVERFILL. If fluid is added during
freezing weather, the motor home should be
driven several miles to mix water and electro-
lyte to prevent freezing.
• Fluid level check may be omitted if equipped
with maintenance-free batteries.

To prevent damage to batteries or
wiring, always observe battery polar-
ity. Always attach positive (+) cable
to positive terminal and negative (-)

tery terminals are marked (+) and
negative (-).
Disconnect both battery cables before
connecting a "booster" battery charge
to a battery inside the battery com-
partment.
Never try to charge or boost a frozen
battery. A battery explosion could
result.
BATTERY CONDITION METER

charge in the house battery in your motor home.
It is located on the monitor panel in the galley ar-
ea. (See Section 8.)
To obtain an accurate reading:
1. Both the automotive engine and the auxiliary
generator engine must be stopped.
2. An interior light should be turned on to pro-
vide a small load which draws off battery
surface charge.
AUX. START SWITCH - See Section 2.
