NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME IN THE BATTERY STORAGE AREA. AVOID STRIKING SPARKS

NEAR THE BATTERY. A BATTERY CAN EXPLODE IF A FLAME OR SPARK IGNITES THE

HYDROGEN GAS THE BATTERY EMITS WHILE BEING CHARGED.

AC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

Periodically inspect all wiring for nicks, chafing, brittleness, improper support, etc. Examine the shore power

cord closely for cracks in the insulation and corrosion in electrical connectors. Spraying receptacles and

electrical connections with an electrical contact cleaner or a metal and electrical protector will reduce

corrosion and improve electrical continuity.

Inspect all wiring for proper support, sound insulation, and tight terminals, paying particular attention to

portable appliance cords and plugs.

The entire AC circuitry, especially the shore power cord, should be seasonally tested for proper continuity

by an experienced electrician. This will detect any shorts, open wires or ground faults. Ground fault

interrupters should be tested periodically to ensure proper operation by pressing the test/reset buttons in the

center of face plate. The polarity indicator system also should be inspected for proper operation.

CORROSION ALLOWED TO BUILD ON THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS CAN CAUSE A POOR

CONNECTION RESULTING IN SHORTS, GROUND FAULTS OR POOR GROUND CONNECTIONS.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS SHOULD BE CHECKED AT LEAST ANNUALLY AND CLEANED

AS REQUIRED. DO NOT ALLOW CORROSION TO BUILD ON CONNECTIONS.

THE AC AND DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ALWAYS SHOULD BE DISCONNECTED FROM THE

POWER SOURCE BEFORE INSPECTING OR SERVICING THE SYSTEM. NEVER SERVICE ANY

COMPONENT OF AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHILE IT IS ENERGIZED.
