Reactivating the Unit after Storage
If the unit was properly and carefully prepared for storage, taking it out of storage will not be
difficult. You should not experience any problems except minor surprises such as animal nests
underneath or minor body scratches, and of course dirt accumulations on the outside. The
following procedure checklist assumes that you stored the RV with care. If you didn’t, and
extensive freeze damage or other serious deterioration has occurred, please consult your
Dealer for advice.
Thoroughly inspect the outside of the camper. Look for animal nests in appliance vents, wheel
wells or in other out of the way places.
Open all doors and compartments. Check for animal or insect intrusion, water damage or other
deterioration.
Remove all appliance and ceiling vents and air conditioner coverings. Be sure all furnace,
water heater and refrigerator openings are clear and free of debris or insect nests, webs, etc.
Check charge level in battery. Refill and recharge as necessary. Reinstall battery if necessary.
Be sure cable ends and terminals are clean and free of corrosion.
If unit has been stored on blocks or jacks, remove these.
Open vents and windows for ventilation.
Be sure all 12-volt and 110-volt circuit breakers are off.
Check the operation of tail lights, turn signals, backup lights, clearance lights, license plate
light and emergency flashers.
