Let’s get started:


Step 1: Plug in to 15AMP Power

  1. Locate the power connection socket on the side of your vehicle.

  2. Use the supplied cord to plug into a 15 Amp outlet at your campsite (household 10 Amp outlets are not compatible).

  3. Ensure the plug is firmly connected at both ends.


Step 2: Check the Breaker at the Power Socket

  1. Open the flap beside your vehicle’s external power socket.

  2. Make sure the breaker switch is in the UP position.


Step 3: Check Your Internal Circuit Breakers

  1. Inside the vehicle, go to the right side of the rear dinette seat.

  2. Locate the cabinet or flap under the seat — the two main circuit breakers are here.

  3. Ensure both breakers are facing UP.


Step 4: Test the Campsite Power Source

  1. Unplug your power cord from the vehicle.

  2. Plug that end into a small appliance (e.g., phone charger or toaster).

  3. If the appliance does not work, the issue is with the campsite power. Contact the site staff for assistance.


Step 5: Unplug All Internal Appliances

Unplug all devices inside the motorhome to isolate potential tripping causes:

  1. Cooktop: Located under the sink inside the cabinet.

  2. Hot Water System: Plug is under the middle dinette seat near the bathroom.

  3. Microwave: Plugged in on top of the fridge.

  4. Unplug the kettle, toaster, and all personal electronics like phones, tablets, laptops.


Step 6: Reset and Test

  1. With everything unplugged, flip the circuit breakers back UP.

  2. Now, plug in one appliance at a time.

  3. After each item, check if the breaker trips again.

  4. This will help identify the faulty appliance or plug.
