fitted externally with an earth

leakage circuit breaker.

equipment overview).

It is located:

- under the seat bench (600 H/635 LS),

- in the wardrobe (635 LB/GB).

Switch up: Power circuit closed

Switch down: Fault. If repair is

necessary, see annex to operating

instructions.

The EVS charger (suitable for gel-type

battery) is located under or behind the

passenger seat, according to the

layout.

When the engine is running, the starter

and body battery are charged in

parallel by the charger. When the

engine has been switched off, the

battery isolating relay isolates the

starter battery from the body battery.

With a connection to the 230 V external

supply the body battery is always

charged first.

The refrigerator relay isolates the

refrigerator from the body battery once

the engine has been switched off.
