Further Information
To read more about power mirrors, see the
mirror manufacturer’s information in your Own-
er InfoCase.
POWER SUNVISORS
The powered sunvisors are controlled by
switches on the driver and passenger armrest
panels. The driver side contains switches for both
sides to allow driver control. The passenger side
has a switch only for the passenger side visor.
Press and hold DOWN side of the switch to
extend, then release at the desired position. Press
and hold UP side of the switch to retract the visor.
NOTE: Do not position visors where they will
impair the driver’s forward vision or
side mirror view.
LOADING THE VEHICLE
NOTE: Your motor home’s load capacity is des-
ignated by weight, not by volume, so you
cannot necessarily use all available
space when loading your motor home.
•
Store or secure all loose items inside the
motor home before traveling. Possible over-
looked items such as canned goods or small
appliances on the countertop, cooking pans
on the range, or free-standing furniture items
can become dangerous projectiles during a
sudden stop or evasive maneuver.
•
Be aware of GVWR, GAWR and individual
load limit on each tire or set of duals.
When loading the vehicle, distribute the cargo
load equally so that you do not exceed either the
Front or Rear Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) or the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR). The Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) means the weight value specified by
the chassis manufacturer as the load carrying ca-
pacity of a single axle system as measured at the
tire-to-ground interfaces. This is the total weight
a given axle is capable of carrying. Each axle has
its own rating.
Have your vehicle weighed to determine the
proper load distribution for your vehicle. Also
distribute cargo side-to-side so the weight on
each tire or dual set does not exceed one half of
the GAWR for either axle.
