Seat belts are installed to protect the driver
and passengers. Always use seat belts. In an
accident, injury to the driver and passengers
may be reduced if seat belts are properly
used.
The booth dinette, sofa and chair(s) have two-
point lap-seat belts installed. These seat
belts should be used in all seating positions.
Maintenance and inspection of seat belts
The webbing used in seat belts may be
cleaned with a mild soap or detergent
solution. Allow the belts to dry in the shade
and do not allow them to retract until fully dry.
Do not try to bleach or re-dye the belts. The
resulting color may rub off and the webbing
strength could be affected.
Regularly check the seat belt buckles and
release mechanisms for positive action and
check automatic locking retractors for positive
engagement. If the seat belt webbing shows
obvious cuts, protruding broken fibers or
severe fading which indicates weakening by
exposure to sunlight, the entire seat belt
assembly should be replaced.

When transporting infants or small children,
an appropriate child safety restraint system
should always be used.
Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions for the correct
installation and use of these systems.
Legislation in some states may require you
to use seat belts, but even if it is not
required, a seat belt should always be
worn by anyone who drives or rides in this
vehicle.
Never use one seat belt for more than
one occupant. Never carry more
people in the motor home than there
are seat belts.
Only seats equipped with seat belts
are to be occupied while the vehicle is
in motion. While traveling, do not
occupy beds or any seats that do not
have seat belts.
Be sure to lock all doors before driving.
Locking the doors and using the
provided seat belts will minimize the
risk of injury or ejection in an accident.
If you are pregnant, consult your health
care professional for advice on seat
belt use.
NOTE:
All child safety restraint systems
should always face the front or rear of the
motor home. They should never be installed
so the occupant is facing the side of the motor
home.

Power remote mirrors
You can adjust the power remote mirrors
when the ignition key is in the ON or ACC
position.
1. Move the control knob to the side you
want to adjust.
2. Press the control arrows in the direction

3. Return the control knob to the center to

heating elements to defog or de-ice the
mirrored glass if needed.
Do not set anything on or attach anything
to the instrument panel or dash. Do not
attach anything to the steering wheel cover
such as trim material, badges, etc. Failure
to follow these warnings may restrict the
driver's visibility or cause an object to strike
and injure an occupant in the case of a
collision or sudden stop.
