SOME OF THE PRODUCTS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL MAY BE OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT NOT
INCLUDED OR AVAILABLE WITH YOUR RV. ANY SPECIAL EQUIPMENT, MODIFICATIONS, OR
ADDITIONS MADE BY OR AT THE REQUEST OF THE CUSTOMER, OR ANY SUBSEQUENT OWNER,
WHETHER MADE AT THE FACTORY OR IN THE FIELD, ARE NOT COVERED IN THIS MANUAL. WE
RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE THE CONSTRUCTION OR MATERIAL OF ANY PARTS AT ANY
TIME WITHOUT INCURRING THE OBLIGATION TO INSTALL SUCH CHANGES ON DELIVERED UNITS.
Your RV has had a thorough inspection before it was shipped to your dealer. However, to insure your complete
satisfaction, the dealer must perform an inspection of various components and operations based on a
pre-delivery inspection list provided. You should take the opportunity to cover the operation of all components
of your RV with your dealer. This will help make you familiar with the RV and its operation, while at the same
time providing you with the assurance of everything being in proper working order. A road test by the dealer
should be included as part of the pre-delivery inspection. The dealer can then check for and correct any
steering problems before you take delivery of the RV. After this road test has been completed, front end
alignment and/or vibrations will not be covered as part of the new vehicle warranty.
This RV has been designed for short term and recreational use. It was not designed to be used as a permanent
dwelling or as a rental vehicle. If you intend to use your RV as a permanent dwelling or rental vehicle, it could
cause the carpet, drapes, upholstery, and interior surfaces to deteriorate prematurely. This premature wear
caused by long term or permanent residency may, under the terms of the new vehicle warranty, be considered
abnormal and abusive and COULD REDUCE YOUR WARRANTY COVERAGE.
Should a problem develop for which you need assistance, contact your dealer. If the problem is automotive,
the motorhome should be taken either to a chassis manufacturer service center or dealer. If the problem is with
an appliance, check the appliance manufacture’s information supplied with the RV for information regarding
warranty work and/or location of appliance service centers.
If, when traveling, you experience a breakdown or problem while your RV is under warranty, and an authorized
service center or dealer is not available, if possible, contact the dealer you purchased your RV from, or a
Mandalay Technical Service Advisor at (866) 919-4444 before having any service work performed. By
notifying them, you will know what is covered under the terms of your warranty, as well as making them aware
of your problem.
Any parts that require replacement, that are covered under the terms of the warranty
should be retained and returned to your dealer along with your invoice. This way, they are able to check
what has occurred, and also make sure you are properly reimbursed.
Repairs made without prior authorization may be subject to denial or partial reimbursement. Modifications
made to the vehicle without proper authorization can result in reduction or loss of warranty coverage. Please
make sure to contact your dealer before making such changes.
