Two 15 amp Breakers below seat of u-dinette in 5.0

We're a new owner of a 2020 5.0 and I'm learning about all systems prior to embarking on our first adventure. It may be me, but I can not find any Escape published documentation that identifies what the two 15 amp breakers located beneath the back bench seat in u-shaped dinette. One is switched to the "On" position and the other in the "Off" position, but no labeling to say what they are for, nor can I find it in the documentation. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

This is what is done by Escape when the inverter with all outlets option is ordered. These serve the 120V outlets in the trailer for protection when on the inverter. When on 120V power that gray sub-panel is fed via a 30A breaker in WFCO power center. The power is routed by the transfer switch on the back of the power center. Both of those breakers would typically be on. Right now with one off there will be outlets that won't be working.

Breakers for 120v Outlets - thank you

Very good, that answers my question and solves the puzzle. Not sure why Escape wouldn't include that detail in their documentation - but greatly appreciated.
