Due to the variety of floor plans available at Forest River
and the various shapes and sizes of recreational
vehicles, we use many different brands of appliances,
designed to fit into the designated space in each recre-
ational vehicle. Therefore, all appliances used cannot be
listed in this section. While we will attempt to touch on
the major ones, please keep in mind your best resource
is the specific appliance’s manual that came with your
Owner’s packet. It will detail the product used in the
manufacture of YOUR recreational vehicle. (If, by
chance, you don’t have the manual you need, many
times you can find it on-line, where you will have the
option of reading it or printing it for your future use. Be
sure you have the model and serial number of your spe-
cific appliance handy so you get the most accurate
information.)
Each appliance in your RV is warranted by its manufac-
turer. It is very important that you review ALL the litera-
ture provided in the Forest River Owner’s packet that
came with your recreational vehicle. Fill out and mail any
warranty registration cards required by the appliance
manufacturers. If you have any questions regarding the
operation of the appliances in your RV, contact your sell-
ing dealer. Also, please notify your dealer of any short-
age of literature you may have.
It is important that you read all the manufacturer’s infor-
mation provided, regarding both operation and mainte-
nance of the appliance. Pay close attention to all safety
precautions given, and follow them closely. Keep all lit-
erature, including this manual, with the recreational
vehicle for easy reference. If service on any appliance is
required, contact your dealer or an authorized service
representative of the appliance manufacturer. For your
convenience, most appliance manufacturers have toll-
free service telephone numbers.

To Prevent Fire Or Smoke Damage
1. Keep area around appliance clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline, and
other flammable vapors and materials.
2. If appliance is installed near a window, take
proper precautions to prevent curtains from
blowing over burners.
3.
Never leave any items unattended on the
cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite
flammable items and may increase pressure
in closed containers, which may cause them
to burst.
4. Avoid use or storage of aerosol cans near an
appliance. Many are explosive when exposed
to heat and may be highly flammable.
5. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as
they may melt or soften. If this occurs, dis-
card the container and contents as the food
could be contaminated.
Below is an excerpt from the appliance manufacturer’s
user manual regarding important safety instructions.
Refer to the oven/range manufacturer’s user manual for
more complete instructions. For more information, please
consult the individual owner’s manual or on-line at

.
Read all instructions before using this appliance. The fol-
lowing instructions are based on safety considerations
and must be strictly followed to eliminate the potential
risks of fire, electric shock or personal injury. Have your
appliance installed and properly grounded by a qualified
installer and according to the installation instructions.
Have the installer show you the location of the gas shut
off valve and how to shut it off in an emergency. To
ensure proper operation and avoid possible injury or
damage to the RV, do not attempt to adjust, repair, ser-
vice, or replace any part of your appliance. All other ser-
vicing should be referred to a qualified installer or service
center. Always disconnect power to appliance before
servicing.

Never turn exhaust fan on with filter screen
removed. Exposed fan blades pose an injury
threat. Dirt and grease deposits which are nor-
mally trapped by the filter are free to build up in
the range hood exhaust duct, creating a fire haz-
ard.
