CAMPING
SAFETY
: As always, safety should be one of your top priorities. Make sure you, and
everyone traveling with you, can operate the main door and exit window rapidly
without light.
WARNING:
The roadside rear window is designed as an escape window. To escape, pull
in on the two red latches at the bottom. The complete window sash will swing out to
allow easy exit. The pleated shade is opened by sliding straight up. The window
operation should be checked each trip and explained to all traveling companions.
WARNING:
At each campsite make sure you have not parked in such a manner as to
block the operation of the escape window by being too close to trees, fences or other
impediments. Scenic views are one reason for traveling, but don't park so the beautiful
lake or steep cliff is just outside your escape window.
WARNING:
Read the directions carefully on the fire extinguisher. If there is ally doubt
on the operation, you and your family should practice, then replace or recharge the
extinguisher. You will find your local fire department will be happy to assist you and
answer any questions.
WARNING:
DON'T SMOKE IN BED!
KEEP MATCHES OUT OF REACH OF SMALL CHILDREN!
DON'T CLEAN WITH FLAMMABLE MATERIAL!
KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIAL AWAY FROM OPEN FLAME!
We have all heard these warnings many times, but they are still among the leading causes of fires.
Other safety information on the LPG system of your motorhome is located in the Plumbing Section of this
manual.
SMOKE ALARM - FIREX MODEL B
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
SMOKE ALARM SAFETY CHECKLIST
Before installing, using and maintaining your smoke alarm read the entire owners manual and warranty.
Keep it in a convenient place for reference.
1. Test your smoke alarm every week. To test the electronics, firmly depress the button. To test that smoke
reaches the sensor, blow smoke in a careful fire-safe manner into your smoke alarm.
2. Your smoke alarm will not work without power. Never shut off its power or remove the battery to quiet
the alarm.
FOR BATTERY-POWERED UNITS: When your smoke alarm "beeps" about once a minute, the battery is
weak. Immediately install a new battery correctly. Be sure to use only batteries specified in Owner's
Manual or on unit. Test unit after installing a new battery.
