To ensure that all 12V electronic devices work without external power, the camping battery voltage should never fall below 12V (50%).
The lights in the Road House only work when the camping battery is charged or when an external power supply is connected.
You can switch on the lights on the on-board computer above the sliding door:
There are numerous sockets and USB ports throughout the vehicle:
- 230V sockets can be found on the kitchen unit, next to the table, between the kitchen and the bed, above the counter and above the bed.
- USB ports and 12V sockets are in the cockpit (USB Type-C and B), above the dinette, above the bed, in the boot and on the roof bed.
Please note the following:
- Do not charge any device in the driver's cab via USB when stationary. The starter battery will discharge and the engine might not start anymore!
- The 230V sockets only work with an external power connection.
- The USB ports and 12V sockets also work without an external power connection. But the camping battery must be charged.
Troubleshooting
If the power or lights do not work, there are several things you can test:
- Check the charge level of the camping battery on the board unit.
- Check whether the light is switched on at the board unit.
- With an external power source: Check whether the cable or the campsite socket is defective. Your friendly camping neighbour will probably help you out with the working cable and socket. 🥰
- Check in the cupboard under the bench seat whether the RCD switches in the fuse box are pointing upwards.
