ONDITIONER
Your RV has a roof mounted air conditioning
system that is controlled by a thermostat.
Make sure you have sufficient power available
before operating the air conditioner (refer to
Sec. 2 Electrical Systems
, Calculating
electrical load). Do not operate the air
conditioner without the return air filter.
Operating the system without the filter allows
the lint and dirt that is normally stopped by the
filter to accumulate on the cooling coil of the air
conditioner. This also will lead to a loss of air
volume, possible equipment damage and an
expensive cleaning process.
Heat pump operation
Set the thermostat for either electric or gas
heat. On the electric setting, the Polar Mach™
heat pump will become the primary heat
source as long as the interior temperature of
the RV has not dropped 5° below the
thermostat setpoint. If this occurs, the
thermostat will automatically activate your gas
furnace. The furnace will continue as the heat
source until the thermostat setpoint has been
satisfied. At that point, the heat pump will
again become the primary heat source.
Maintenance
A foam gasket is placed between the roof
material and the subframe of the air
conditioner to guard against water leakage.
The air conditioner is subjected to wind
pressures along with motor vibration during
normal operation. Inspect the mounting bolts
for tightness to ensure there is no leakage or
looseness at least annually. Re-tighten bolts
when they are loose b ut DO NOT over tighten
as it may damage this gasket. To gain access
to the bolts, remove the filtered panel cover on
central air systems or the entire air box on
non-central air conditioners.
For more information
Read the OEM operator's manual. If you have
further questions consult with your RV dealer,
the OEM or Jayco Customer Service.

URNACE
The RV furnace installed in the RV is
controlled by a thermostat. The furnace
requires both 12-volt power and propane gas
for full operation. Make sure you have
sufficient power available before operating
your furnace (refer to
Sec. 2 Electrical
Systems
, Calculating electrical load). Read
the OEM operator’s manual for detailed
operational instructions. If you have any
questions contact your RV dealer or visit the
OEM website.
A qualified RV technician should perform all
furnace maintenance at least once a year
(more often depending on furnace usage).
Never attempt to repair the furnace yourself.

SECTION 8
CAMPING & OPERATING
WARNING
The furnace should be inspected
periodically (monthly during the heating
season) for presence of soot on the vent.
Soot is formed whenever combustion is
incomplete. This is a visual warning that the
furnace is operating in an unsafe manner. If
soot is observed on the vent, immediately
shut the furnace OFF and contact a
qualified service agency. Operating the
furnace under this condition could lead to
serious property damage, personal injury or
loss of life.
WARNING
To ensure your personal safety, do not
obstruct or alter the furnace in any manner.
Do not install screens over the vent for any
reason. Screens will become restricted and
cause unsafe furnace operation. For your
safety, only OEM factory authorized parts
are to be used on your furnace.
