The ceiling fan operates as one would in your
home. An OEM operator’s manual is provided
with detailed instructions. If you have further
questions, consult with your RV dealer and/or
the OEM.

WNING
(
IF SO EQUIPPED
)
Please refer to the awning OEM operator’s
manual. Keep your awning in good condition
to prevent costly repairs. It is very important to
keep the awning clean. If weather conditions
are windy or stormy, close the awning into the
travel mode position. Shut the awning in the
travel position if you will be away from the RV
for an extended period of time.
The 12-volt power awning (if so equipped)
may need to be adjusted (retracted) to
operate the entry door (some models)
E-Z L

The E-Z lube feature on your axles provides
the ability for the bearings to be periodically
lubricated without removing the hubs from the
axle. This feature consists of axle spindles
that have been specially drilled and fitted with
grease zerks in their ends. When grease is
pumped into the zerk, it is channeled to the
inner bearing and then flows back to the outer
bearing and eventually back out the grease
cap hole. If you have further questions,
consult with your dealer.
The convenient lubrication provisions of the
E-Z lube must not replace periodic inspection
and maintenance of the bearings. Use a
hand-operated grease gun; improper use of a
commercial grease gun may damage the
seals.
Wheel Bearings
Your RV wheel bearings require maintenance
just as any other vehicle wheel bearings.
Make sure you read, understand and follow
the axle OEM operator’s information. If you
have further questions, consult with your
dealer and/or visit the OEM website.

QUIPPED

If your RV was ordered with the optional bike
rack, do not use the rear bike rack hitch for
any other purpose (doing so will void the
Towable Limited Warranty
). The optional
rear bike rack hitch is not designed or
intended to be used for towing. Refer to the
OEM operator’s manual. If you have any
questions, consult your dealer or Jayco
Customer Service.
Fig. 10.8 Bike rack / cargo tray safety locking pins.
Items that extend beyond the bike rack/cargo
tray OR weigh over 250 lbs. (113.4 kg) will
place undo strain on the RV. Some items may
fall within the given weight range, however,
can still cause damage. Over time, excess
weight added to the tray will cause damage
from the motion created while traveling. In
addition, extra weight behind the axle may
reduce the hitch weight (leading to adverse
handling conditions from wind gusts and/or
passing traffic).
Awnings must be closed (and locked if
applicable) while the RV is in transit.
The bike rack / cargo tray must be secured
to the RV frame by the safety locking pins
at all times. Damage caused by failure to
set the locking pins or improper loading or
excessive loading voids the
Towable
Limited Warranty
.
