On The Road
If you can’t avoid operating, parking or idling
your vehicle off-road:
• Be aware that combustible materials could
catch fire from the vehicle’s hot exhaust
system .
• Avoid driving your vehicle through or over
combustible materials such as leaves, grass,
vegetation or stubble high enough to touch,
catch or collect on its hot exhaust system.
• Parking or idling should be done only in
an area where there are no combustible
materials under the vehicle.
REAR VIEW VIDEO MONITOR
(If Equipped)
If your motor home is equipped with rear view
video monitor , the camera is located at the top
rear of the motor home. The rear view picture is
displayed on a screen in the driver’s compartment.
The monitor screen may be overlaid with a
distance scale reference which gives approximate
distance of objects to the rear of the motor home.
The rear view video monitor works in two modes:
Mode 1 - Standby (Indicator will be lit)
1. Turn on ignition switch.
2. Shift the transmission to [R]everse
3. Monitor on.
Mode 2 - On (Indicator wil be lit)
1. Turn on the ignition switch.
2. Monitor on.
Using the rear view video monitor will take practice.
Always allow more space for maneuvering until you
are comfortable with the system. Check the side-
mounted mirrors often while driving and especially
during lane changes and when backing up.
The camera lens is exposed to road dirt and will
get dirty. When necessary, clean the camera lens
and monitor screen with a quality glass cleaner
and nonabrasive cloth or towel.
BODY UNDERCOATING
Certain chassis and underbody components of
your motor home have been coated with an under-
coating material. This material is intended to assist
in protecting these components from
corrosion or other effects of weather and road
conditions . Please be aware that certain areas of
the motor home do not have undercoating applied,
in keeping with good engineering practice, and to
meet the requirements of chassis manufacturers.
FUEL AND FUEL SYSTEMS
See the Chassis Operator’s/Owner’s Guide/
Manual in the Owner’s Information Package for
chassis engine fuel recommenda tions .
Modern fuel systems may build up vapor pres-
sure within the tank as the fuel warms during
use or hot weather. Under certain conditions,
sudden release of this pressure when removing
the fuel cap can cause fuel to spray from the fill
opening, creating a fire hazard.
CAUTION
The rear view video monitor system provides a
general view of the road and objects to the rear of
the motor home. Your perception of this view and
the relationships of ob jects to the motor home and
each other will be different from that seen in a rear
view mirror. Light conditions and the adjustment of
the screen controls will also affect your perception.
Always use the side-mounted rear view mirrors with
the video monitor system.

WARNING
Do not park or idle the motor home over combus-
tible materials such as tall grass or dried leaves.
Combustible materials may catch fire from the hot
exhaust gases, soot or sparks that could escape
through corrosion holes or cracks. This is particularly
important if the exhaust system has not been properly
maintained.
