DRIVING & SAFETY
DIPLOMAT 2004
The fire extinguisher in the motorhome is located near the main
entrance door. Please read the operating instructions that are printed on
the fire extinguisher. If there is any doubt on how to operate the fire
extinguisher, you and your family should practice using it. Be sure to
replace or recharge the extinguisher immediately after use.
Inspect the fire extinguisher at least once a month. Do so more
frequently if the extinguisher is exposed to weather or possible
tampering. Do not test the extinguisher by partially discharging as this
will cause a loss of pressure.
Use the PASS word!
Pull the pin to unlock the extinguisher.
Aim at the base (bottom) of the fire and stand
6-10 feet away.
Squeeze the lever to discharge the agent.
Sweep the spray from left to right until totally
extinguished.
An egress window is designated for use as an exit in the case of an
emergency. Inside the motorhome the egress window is easily identified by
the red locking handle. It is also marked as an “EXIT.” The glass slider in the
egress window operates the same as all other windows.
• To open the egress window, lift the red handle and
push outward on the window.
• To close the egress window, pull the window closed
and lower the handles to lock window in place.
CAUTION: The egress window should be
opened twice a year to ensure proper
operation. Over time, the rubber seal will
tend to stick to the egress window.
Occasional operation will help prevent the
rubber seal from sticking.
