Section 4: Vehicle Operation
Emergency Towing
If your recreational vehicle needs to be towed, please contact an emergency road service
provider or a qualified service facility for assistance.
Never allow anyone to go under the recreation vehicle while it is being lifted
and/or being towed.
Emergency Stopping
Always carry road flares or reflective warning signs. Pull off the roadway as far as possible
for emergency stopping. Turn ON your vehicle hazard warning flashers. If traveling at
night, use three red warning indicators such as flares, reflectors or lanterns as required by the
Uniform Vehicle Code and Model Traffic Ordinance as follows:
1. Place the first warning indicator on the traffic side of the recreation vehicle, directed at
the nearest approaching traffic.
2. Place the second warning indicator 100 feet behind the recreation vehicle in the center
of the lane and toward approaching traffic.
Place the third warning indicator 100 feet in front of the recreation vehicle in the center of
the lane and away from the traffic approaching from behind.
NOTE: Curves and/or hills may affect the safe placement of warning
indicators.
For personal safety, always stand off the road and out of the way of traffic.
Wheel Lugs
After your first trip, check the wheel lug torque periodically for safety. Check the wheel
lugs after winter storage, after a wheel removal, before starting a trip or following extensive
braking :
1. Use the correct star pattern sequence to attach the recreation vehicle wheels.
2. Start all nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.
