XPLAINED
The 17-digit chassis VIN does not reflect the
model year of the completed motorhome. The
chassis, when received by Jayco from its
manufacturer, is an incomplete vehicle
consisting of frame rails, engine, drive train,
steering column, axles, wheels, tires and a fuel
delivery system. The incomplete chassis
cannot be driven legally on public roads or sold
at retail without further manufacturing
processing.
The RV manufacturer who completes the
coach portion of the motorhome assigns the
model year. Jayco assigns the model year
using the 9-digit serial number that is unique to
your motorhome.
The 17-digit chassis VIN and/or Jayco serial
number is required whenever making an
appointment with or ordering replacement
parts from your RV dealer.

NFORMATION
Read and understand the following
before taking your first trip in your
RV!
The chassis manufacturer has equipped your
motorhome with tires. The recommended air
pressure (PSI) is stamped on each tire and
printed on the Federal Certification Label.
Routine maintenance on your motorhome is
important, but it cannot be overstated just how
critical proper tire maintenance is to the safety,
operation and durability of your RV. Proper
care of your tires is essential to ensure your
safety, as well as the safety of others as you
travel. To insure your tires are operating safely,
regular inspection of your tires and checking
tire pressures is absolutely mandatory.
Examine your tires frequently for unusual
wear. Alignment, balance and bearing wear
will affect tire wear. Make sure to look for
cracking, bulging, uneven tread wear, etc.
Check and adjust tire pressures before and
after each trip. Always check and adjust with
the tires cold. During travel, tires heat up and
pressure increases. Never add or release
pressure from the tires when they are hot (after
having driven a mile or more).
For more information
Read the tire OEM operator’s manual. Any
service or warranty coverage on tires is to be
handled by the tire store representing the
specific brand installed on your motorhome.
Replacement
If you experience a flat tire on your RV while
driving, gradually decrease your vehicle speed
(if possible). Hold the steering wheel firmly and
move the RV to a safe place on the side of the
road. If a tire needs to be replaced make sure it

PRE-TRAVEL INFORMATION
DANGER
Failure to follow proper inflation
guidelines may result in tire failure,
which, under certain circumstances can
cause loss of vehicle control or
accidents that may result in property
damage, bodily injury and/or death.
WARNING
When replacing a tire make sure to replace
it with a tire of the same size and
specifications (refor to your Chassis Guide
for assistance.) Failure to use tires that are
properly matched to yuor recreation vehicle
could lead to premature tire wear or less
than optimum handling.
WARNING
The factory-installed weight labels are
specific to the recreation vehicle for
which they are supplied and are not
interchangeable.
