complete newbie

We just bought our first ever motorhome last weekend. It is a 99 Georgetown and now we are trying to figure out the buttons on the driver dash. one has a lightening bolt, one button has a sun and a book and one is either a headlight or shower head. Can someone tell me what they are. The only one we have a guess on is the lightening bolt. We thought generator but somewhere here I thought I saw it mentioned maybe water heater. Thanks for your help.

    Don't you just love these cryptic symbols? My Honda is chock full of them. Rather like the ones for laundry instructions, they are NOT self-explanatory.

    The lightning bolt is for the generator, at least it is on my 2011, hold it in the off position to prime generator then light should come on, on the button and press and hold in the on position until generator starts, mine has a beep when generator starts. The button with the sun and book is for map lights, mine has one above driver and passenger seats. The final one I am not sure could be fog lights. Below is a link to the Forest River Forum where they have a Georgetown section it is very helpful. Good Luck with your GT.
