The electrical appliances connected to the 12 V power supply of the living area
are supplied with voltage by the living area battery.
Connect the vehicle to an external 240 V power supply system as often as
possible. The charger module in the transformer/rectifier automatically
charges the living area battery. In addition to this, the starter battery is charged
with a float charge.
9.10.1 240 V connection
The vehicle can be connected to an external 240 V power supply. The cable
may have a length of maximum 25 m.

Connection possibilities For your power cable, we recommend using a CEE connection cable with a
CEE plug and coupling. If this type of connection is not feasible, we recom-
mend the following combination with a safety plug:
The external 240 V power supply must be protected by fuse with a fault
current protection switch (FI-switches, 30 mA).
For the connection points on camp sites (camping distributors) highly sen-
sitive fault current protection switches (FI-switches, 30 mA) are obligatory.
Completely unwind the cable on cable drums to prevent overheating.
