ELECTRICAL FEATURES

WARNING

Remove rings, metal watchbands, and any other metal jewelry before work-

ing around batteries. If any metallic object (tool, jewelry, etc.) contacts the

positive battery terminal or any connection made to that terminal AND also

contacts the negative terminal or any of its connections, a SEVERE ELECTRI-

CAL SHORT will occur which could result in an explosion, fire, and/or per-

sonal injury. Lead-acid batteries contain diluted sulfuric acid which can be

dangerous; avoid direct contact with any battery fluids. Wear eye protection.

120 VOLT (VAC) AC RECEPTACLES

Your Allegro Breeze motorhome is equipped with several 120 VAC recepta-

cles (Figure 9-5) located throughout the interior of the motorhome. ese

120 VAC receptacles are of the “three-prong” variety; the third prong being a

grounding pin which provides adequate grounding to protect one from any

electrical shock.

For these receptacles to work properly, do not use an adapter, cheater, or ex-

tension cord which defeats the function of the grounding pin. For the same

reason, never remove or bend away the ground prong or pin from any three-

prong AC plug so that it would t a two-prong AC receptacle (i.e., an un-

grounded AC receptacle).

Never operate the Allegro Breeze if there is an electrical short present, as an

electrical short may deliver an electrical shock to anyone coming in contact

with the exterior of the unit.

If you should feel even the slightest of electrical shock, immediately discon-

nect the unit from the 120 VAC power source and locate the electrical fault

(i.e., typically, it is a break in the grounding circuit).

Do not reconnect the 120 VAC power until aer that electrical fault is xed—the grounding circuit

must be continuous from the frame to the distribution panel, to the power cord, and to the earth

ground so that electrical-shock protection is realized.
