Fire Extinguisher
The fire extinguisher should be checked for charge
on a regular basis� Make sure your family knows
how to release the extinguisher storage bracket and
how to properly operate the extinguisher� Check with
your local fire department for professional advice on
its operation and use if you find the directions on the
extinguisher unclear� They will be able and willing to
assist you and your family�
WARNING
Read the directions carefully on the fire
extinguisher. If there is any 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
Do not smoke inside the touring coach. Keep
matches out of reach of small children. Do not
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.
Emergency Exits
There are three avenues of escape from the touring
coach in the event of an emergency, the driver’s door,
the passenger door, and the rear doors� As always,
safety should be one of your top priorities� Make sure
you and everyone traveling with you can operate these
doors and exit rapidly without light� A little planning and
a quick practice session at each camping site is well
worth the time it may take�
Safety
As always, safety should be a top priority� Ensure
that you, and everyone traveling with you, can quickly
operate the main and rear doors in the dark� Plan for
other means of escape in case these designated exits
are blocked�
WARNING
At each campsite, make sure you have not parked
in such a manner as to block the operation of the
doors or the escape avenues by being too close to
trees, fences, or other impediments. Scenic views
are one reason for traveling, but do not park so
the beautiful lake or steep cliff is just outside your
doors. Do not block access to the doors from the
inside or outside of the vehicle.
