The inverter takes 12 Volt DC from the house batteries and turns it into 120 Volt AC. It also takes
120 Volt AC when the motorhome is connected to shore power and transforms it into 12 Volt
DC to recharge the house batteries.
There are two modes of operation associated with an inverter/charger:
1. Inverter Mode: 12 Volt DC from the coach batteries is transformed into 120 Volt AC
for use with household electrical appliances.
2. Charger Mode: 120 Volt AC is taken directly from shore power (or other AC sources)
and passed directly to household appliances. At the same time, the incoming 120 Volt
AC is also converted to 12 Volt DC to recharge the house batteries.

Remote Control

A remote control located above the entry door allows you to customize the operating
parameters of the inverter/charger, thus maximizing performance and increasing the life of the
batteries. The remote also controls all of the operating and programming functions.
The inverter/charger owner's manual outlines all of the functions in an easy to use format.
REFERENCE: The following is a brief overview of the remote control. For more information
