Battery Control Center (Bcc); Generator; Monitor Panel - Damon Astoria Pacific Edition Owner's Manual

The Battery Control Center (BCC) houses all the fuses for your auxiliary coach circuits.
The BCC is located in front of the drivers front tire inside the compartment of the
fenderskirt. To remove the BCC cover locate the tabs on each side of the box, pull
away slightly and remove. Inside you will find a series of fuses for the extra circuits not
available on the automotive or interior house 12 volt fuse boards. These style fuses are
available at any automotive or RV store. If it should become necessary to replace any
of these fuses, be sure to replace them with the same style and amperage rating. The
circuit wiring is sized for that particular amperage. The BCC will sense when to charge
either set of batteries. If the voltage falls below the minimum requirements, the BCC
will switch the charge to that set of batteries. Terminals inside the BCC are available for
testing its functionality. This testing should be performed by a qualified RV technician.
If your motorhome is equipped with a generator, it will provide independent AC power.
When the generator is in operation an automatic switch will change the AC appliances to
generator power from the previous AC source. A short delay occurs before the switching
process is complete to allow the generator to stabilize its output. The generator is
mounted to allow for easy access during service functions. Refer to the Generator
Owner's Manual for necessary service requirements and operating instructions.
EXHAUST GASES ARE DEADLY. Do not block the tail pipe or situate
the vehicle in a place where the exhaust gases have any possibility
of accumulating either outside, underneath, or inside your vehicle or any other nearby vehicles.
Outside air movements can carry exhaust gases inside the vehicle through windows or other
openings remote from the exhaust outlet. Operate the generator only when safe dispersion of
exhaust gases can be assured, and monitor outside conditions to be sure that exhaust gases
continue to be dispersed safety.
Do not under any circumstances operate the generator engine while
sleeping.
