My wife and I are totally new to the RV world but have just bought a 2019 Freedom Elite 26HE.

My first impression is that there is an awful lot of reading material to get through! An instruction manual for every component it seems. But I'd rather have too many manuals than not enough!

Somewhere in the pile must be the answer to the first question I have: The radio (and associated backup camera) only work when the main electricity switch (is there a better term?) is turned on. Is it usual to have that switch turned on when just driving down the road even if there is nobody in the back? And since I think that means the house batteries are being used, does the engine charging system actually charge the house batteries as well as the chassis battery?

Thanks in advance for your responses.
