The meter on the left tells you of how much power is in your battery and if it is charging.The switches to the right controls the lights,water pump etc in fact all electrics in the van.Switches should be marked underneath them .

Never had a zig unit, but, if you start by turning off all the switches, try each unknown switch on its own and while its on, check around the 'van for tell tale lights. One of the switches is probably for the carver water heater, another might be for the charger - does the battery level indicator dip then rise again if you turn a particular switch on and off?

I have an Elddis typhoon and luckily only have two auxilary switches. One I discovered was for the TV ariel (do you have one of those?) the second was for the 12v supply to the fire ignition. I then had two fused swithes on for the fanmaster and one for the water heater so if you haven't got dedicated fused switches for those these could be included in your 5. I also have switches marked lights x2, water heater and pump, so I would say that yours are probably water heater 12v gas ignition, 12v TV arial, 12v Gas Fire Ignition if you don't have two separate fused sockets for your 240 supply the two remaining could be for your 240 electric water heater and 240 electric fanmaster. It will be process of elimination figuring out which, unless somebody has kindly written it down in the handbook.

Thanks peeps down to the last 3 switches now. 1 was for the signal booster and 1 was for the circulated heating fan. I'm guessing 1 could be the fridge and 1 the fire ignition system. There was also a radio which has been removed could that be the last 1?
