When replacing fuses always replace a fuse with the correct value. NEVER replace with a higher value /
rating as this could damage the wiring harness. If a replacement fuse 'blows' do not keep replacing the
fuse as you could damage the wiring harness. Please investigate the fault and contact your dealer.
The following table shows the fuse allocation for the 15 fuses fitted to the PSU. Please note that fuses
are dependant on PSU versions, so not all fuses may be present.

Notes
This cut off level is designed to protect the vehicle
battery from over discharge. The 10.9v level
ensures there is sufficient power in the battery to run
the vehicle electronics and start the vehicle. This
cut off only applies to power drawn from the battery
by the leisure equipment; it will not protect the
battery if you leave vehicle circuits switched on,
such as the road lights.
This is an emergency cut off level to protect the
battery from severe damage. You should not rely on
this cut off level during normal operation, but
manage your power consumption to a discharge
level of 10v.
This cut off only applies to power drawn from the
battery by the leisure equipment that is controlled by
the control panel power switch; it will not protect the
battery from discharge by permanently connected
equipment.
