Taillight Conguration:

Taillights come in different congurations

referred to as a 2-wire or 3-wire conguration.

A 2-wire conguration has all red lens. A 3-

wire conguration usually has red and amber

lens. Amber is used for turn signals only and

red for taillight and brake light. These systems

are electrically different. Whenever hooking

a 2-wire system to a 3-wire system, or vice

versa, a converter box must be installed for

correct taillight function. A taillight converter

is available from auto and RV supply stores.

DO NOT attempt to wire a tow plug connector

if unfamiliar with these systems. A trained

technician will install the proper converter so the

taillights and turn signals work correctly on the

motorhome and towed vehicle or trailer when

the tow plug connection is made.

Tow Plug Connection

The motorhome is pre-wired from the factory

with an electrical connection for towing. The

connection is located on the rear cap, near

the hitch receiver. Convoluted tubing protects

the tow harness wires. Current draw should

not exceed ten amps for each designated light

circuit. Within the electrical connection is a

positive terminal for use when towing a trailer

equipped with a battery. The positive terminal

maintains the charge of the trailer battery.

When preparing a tow plug connection, strip

the wires 3/8". Twist the wire strands and place

under the clip and secure the screw. Make sure

there are no loose strands of wire that could

short against the case or other terminals. DO

NOT accidentally mirror image the trailer

connection.

CAUTION

Positive terminal connection of the tow

plug remains live at all times. When

towing a trailer equipped with a battery,

unplug the electrical tow connection

when parked. Failure to unplug the tow

connection may result in discharged

chassis batteries.

REAR VISION SYSTEM

The motorhome can be equipped with either a

rear camera, or an optional three camera vision

system. The rear vision system consists of a

camera with a microphone both located at the

rear of the motorhome. The microphone aids in

communication while the camera is designed

to provide the driver with a rear view when

backing up. The rear camera is adjustable up and

down and is controlled by the driver.

On the optional three camera system,

side cameras are located at the front of the

motorhome directly above the front wheels

and are not adjustable. This system provides

the driver with a rear view as well as roadside

and curbside views of the motorhome and a

microphone for audio communication.

Turning the main power switch to ON will

allow continuous operation of the rear vision

system when the ignition key is turned on.

Features:

POWER BUTTON - Press this button

to turn the unit ON or OFF. Turning the

unit ON will allow continuous operation

of the rear vision system when ignition

key is on.
