Electrical system Chapter overview 8 8Electrical system This chapter contains instructions regarding the electrical system of the vehicle.
8 Electrical system 8.2 Off-load voltage Terms The off-load voltage is the voltage of the battery in idle condition, i. e. no current is consumed and the battery is not being charged. Z The battery must remain idle for a while before measuring. After charging the last time, or after the last current has been drained by consumers, wait approximately 2 hours before measuring the idle voltage.
Electrical system 8.3 8 USB socket Z The charging current is maximum 1 amp. The vehicle is equipped with a charging station with USB socket in the front part of the living area. All USB devices can be connected and charged at this socket. Fig. 163 USB socket 8.4 12 V power supply Z Only connect devices with a maximum of 10 A to the sockets (Fig. 164,1) of the 12 V power supply. Fig.
8 Electrical system 8.4.1 Selector switch for radio (special equipment) Z Depending on the equipment level, a radio with integrated navigation device or a multimedia station will be present, referred to below simply as a "radio". Fig. 165 Selector switch for operating behaviour Switching the radio on and off with the ignition: Set the selector switch to the "0" position.
Electrical system Charging 8 This section contains information regarding the charging of the starter battery. X The acid in the battery is poisonous and corrosive. Any contact with the skin or the eyes is to be avoided. X In the case of charging with an external charger there is danger of explo- sion. Sparks can be caused by attaching the battery terminals. Only charge the battery in a well ventilated area and away from naked flames or possible sources of sparks. Batteries can develop and release gases.
8 Electrical system 8.4.3 Living area battery Z Use only the built-in transformer/rectifier to load the living area battery. Z After the trip, charge the living area battery fully. Z Before a temporary lay-up, charge the battery fully. Z When the living area battery is changed, only use batteries of the same type and the same capacity. Z If there are several living area batteries, always change all the batteries together. The batteries must always be the same age and have the same capacity.
Electrical system 8 The higher the number of active electrical appliances, the faster the energy of the living area battery is consumed. Charging Only use the transformer/rectifier to charge the living area battery. Therefore, connect the vehicle to a 230 V power supply system as often as possible. Z Charge the battery for at least 48 hours after a total discharge. 8.5 Transformer/rectifier (EBL 99) Z Do not cover the ventilation slots.
8 Electrical system z The transformer/rectifier distributes the current to the 12 V circuits and secures them. Devices with a maximum of 10 A can be connected to the sockets. z The transformer/rectifier provides connections for a solar charge regulator, an auxiliary charging unit, as well as other control and monitoring functions. z When the engine is turned off, the transformer/rectifier separates the starter battery electrically from the living area battery.
Electrical system Measures: 8 Switch off all electrical appliances that are not absolutely essential at the corresponding switch. If necessary, use the 12 V main switch to switch the 12 V power supply back on for a short while. This is only possible, however, when the battery voltage is above 11 V. If the voltage is below this level, the 12 V power supply cannot be switched on again until the living area battery has been recharged. 8.5.
8 Electrical system Z When leaving the vehicle, switch off the main 12 V power supply at the panel. This prevents any unnecessary discharge of the living area battery. Z Appliances, such as control units (e.g. solar charge regulator, defroster or panel) or fitted appliances (e.g. heating, refrigerator or step) continue to take power from the battery capacity, even if the 12 V power supply on the panel is switched off.

Switching off: Press the lower part of the rocker switch (Fig. 167,4) "O": The water supply is OFF. Z If the vehicle is not connected to the 230 V power supply and the water pump is not used for a longer period of time: Switch off the power supply for the water pump. The pump relay uses around 4 Ah current each day. 8.6.
Electrical system 8 X Keep fuel cell and tank cartridges – including empty or half-empty tank cartridges – out of the reach of children. X When used in vehicles, the fuel cell and the tank cartridges must be secured to avoid accidents. Z Do not store the fuel cell at temperatures above 45 °C or below 1 °C. Z Do not operate the fuel cell at temperatures above 40 °C or below -20 °C.

Electrical system 8 When started, the device runs through a start phase lasting up to 20 minutes. Only after this period is its full nominal power reached. Battery protection This function prevents the battery from discharging completely when the operating mode is set to "Off". Battery protection is activated automatically when the battery voltage falls below 11.2 Volts for more than 15 minutes. The "Battery protection" charge mode ends when the voltage of 12.8 Volts is reached.

9 Appliances 9.6 Refrigerator During the journey, only operate the refrigerator via the 12 V power supply. At high ambient temperatures the refrigerator is unable to reach its full cooling power. At high external temperatures, the full cooling power of the cooling unit is only guaranteed if the refrigerator is ventilated sufficiently. In order to achieve a better ventilation the refrigerator ventilation grill can be removed. Z When leaving the vehicle, always mount the refrigerator ventilation grill.
Appliances 9.6.2 Operating modes 9 Operation (Dometic 8 series with manual power selection MES) The refrigerator has 3 operating modes: z Gas operation z 230 V AC z 12 V DC The operating mode is set with the operating controls on the refrigerator panel. Z Select only one energy source. Z The refrigerator always requires a 12 V control voltage, regardless of which type of energy it is using. The control voltage is present as soon as the transformer/rectifier is switched on.
9 Appliances Electrical operation Z Close the gas isolator tap "Refrigerator" when the refrigerator is operated electrically. The refrigerator can be operated with the following voltages: z 230 V AC z 12 V DC Switching the 230 V operation on: Press and hold the On/Off button (Fig. 228,1) for about 2 seconds. The refrigerator switches itself on. The button of the operating mode chosen most recently lights up. If necessary, press the button for the operating mode "230 V" (Fig. 228,2).
Appliances 9 Z The refrigerator always requires a 12 V control voltage, regardless of which type of energy it is using. The control voltage is drawn from the living room area battery. Therefore the closed circuit current always flows even if the refrigerator is switched off. Always disconnect the refrigerator from the battery for a temporary lay-up. Fig.
9 Appliances When changing over from 230 V or 12 V to gas, delay times are built into the AES. For example, when changing over from 12 V operation to gas operation, a 15 minute delay is built in the AES. This prevents a change-over to gas operation when the vehicle is stopped briefly and the engine is switched off (e.g. stop to fill tank). Refrigerating temperature control When turned on the first time the refrigerator automatically selects the middle thermostat position.
Appliances 9 Press the button for the desired energy type or the automatic "AES" mode. Use the temperature range selection button (Fig. 229,7) to set the refriger- ating temperature. The indicator lamps (Fig. 229,8) show the selected thermostat position. When operated with 12 V, the refrigerator draws power only from the living area battery. Z If the refrigerator is manually set to "12 V", it will constantly consume cur- rent.

If no other energy source is available, the operating indicator flashes and an error code appears on the display.
Appliances 9 Undervoltage operation During electric operation the "SES" constantly checks the voltage of the power supply. If the voltage is too low over a longer period of time the "SES" automatically switches over to gas operation. The "SES" remains in this operating mode until the voltage is back to normal. Refrigerating temperature control When it is switched on, the refrigerator automatically selects the thermostat setting selected last.
9 Appliances 9.6.5 Refrigerator door locking mechanism With some models, the refrigerator has a separate freezer compartment. The specifications in this section correspondingly also apply to the door of the freezer compartment. Z During the journey the refrigerator door must always be closed and locked in the closed position. Z Lock the refrigerator door in ventilation position when the refrigerator is switched off. This prevents mould forming.
