• Carefully read the loading section under Chapter 3 related to your respective recreation
vehicle.
• Ensure that tires are in good condition and properly inflated. Proper inflation should be
monitored closely. Neglecting to do so could result in overheating of a tire, which could
result in a blowout.
• Check and tighten wheel lugs regularly, according to your chassis owner manual recom-
mendations.
• Check brakes in a safe area – not while traveling a busy highway.
• Observe the warning labels attached to your vehicle concerning LP gas, water, electric-
ity and loading.
• Before leaving a camp area, ensure that the 120-volt electrical cord is properly stored.
INSURANCE
As with your automobile, it is important that you protect yourself and others with
insurance coverages for personal liability, theft, collision, property damage, etc. Your
dealer will assist you in obtaining appropriate insurance for your protection or you may
check with the company which provides your automobile insurance.
EXTENDED USE
Your new mini-motorhome has been built for enjoyment in a recreational manner. It is
not intended to be used as full-time living quarters.
CAUTION:
Continuous living in your Jayco mini-motorhome could cause
accelerated wear and damage to components.
COLD WEATHER USE
• Use of this vehicle during cold weather will require more protection. Using skirting or
insulation below floor level will provide additional protection if you are camped in one
area for an extended period.
• Proper care should be taken with the fresh water and drainage systems to avoid freezing
problems. Consult your local dealer or RV supply house for advice on heat tapes, etc.
• Adequate gas and electrical supply is needed along with protection from possible freeze-
ups on gas regulator. The furnace will substantially increase battery draw and LP use.
• During cool weather usage, ventilation or addition of a dehumidifier may be required
to reduce condensation.
See next section for important information on controlling con-
densation.
CONDENSATION
Condensation is a natural phenomenon. The amount of condensation will vary with the
climate conditions, particularly the relative humidity. Condensation occurs because there
is water vapor present in the air, which each of us adds by breathing, bathing and
cooking. The water vapor collects where there is available air space, and when the
temperature reaches the ‘dew point’ the water vapor in the air condenses and changes to
liquid form. Most people have experienced a similar phenomenon when moisture forms
on kitchen windows and bathroom mirrors during cool weather.
