Running Boards/Rear Bumper Entry Assist
Running boards are located on both sides and serve as a step into and out of the vehicle. The
rear bumper can be used for entry assist into the rear of the vehicle. When driving, snow,
dirt, rocks and other debris can collect on the running boards and bumper. It is imperative to
keep these areas clean when using them to enter or exit the vehicle.
Care should be taken when using the running boards and bumper as an entry
assist if the surfaces are wet.
Periodically check the bolts for tightness. They need to be torqued to the proper
setting (refer to your Chassis Guide).
Refer to the chassis manual for detail on hitch specifications and towing guidelines.
Driver and Passenger Seat
NOTE: The driver’s and front passenger seat must be locked in the forward
facing position while the motor home is in motion.
To rotate the driver/passenger seat
Depending on your model, you may have the ability to rotate the driver/passenger seats to-
wards the rear of the motor home. To face the driver or front passenger seat toward the rear
of the vehicle, pull the seat swivel release lever up and rotate the seat. To return the seat to
the original position, rotate seat back to the driving position until you hear a click and the
seat locks into position.
Do not adjust the seat while driving. After adjusting the seat, make sure
that it is locked in position. To ensure that the seat is locked securely, try
to move the seat forward or backward without using the adjusting lever
or button. Do not put packages, pets or other objects between the driver's
and front passenger co-captain's seat.
Reclining Seats
: To minimize the risk of personal injury in the event
of a collision or sudden stop, always keep both the driver's captain and
passenger co-captain seat backs in a nearly upright position while the
motor home is moving. The protection provided by the seat belts may be
reduced significantly when the seat back is reclined. Reclining the seats
while the motor home is moving may result in serious injury.
