2017 Thor four Winds 22e manual

[jedipadmay]

WE just purchased this camper and a manual came with it but the switches at the door entrance do not match anything in the manual. We went through the technical training but retention is not so good as a 74 yr old. Today I decided to plug in the power to test some things. I could not find the main power breaker that is said to turn off before plugging it into shore power.

Does anyone have this same model that could help educate me on some of the electrical functions of the switches at the stairway?

The main power breaker you want to open/disconnect is the one on the pedestal, or if home, the breaker that protects the circuit you are plugging into. RV owner's manuals are unfortunately generic in nature and cover a variety of models and floorpans. You will see statements like, "may be equipped, may look like", etc.

Thank you for your response. Being new to this technology, I am not sure what the 'pedestal' is or were it is. lol..

The pedestal is the post at the RV park that has the utilities. Fancy ones will have the various electrical connections, 20/30/50amp, water spigot, cable TV connection, etc. Usually in a well planned park the sewer connection is close by.
