NOTE
It is always wise to walk/check your entrance and exit routes. Look for low
branches and possible obstructions, tight corners, etc. If possible, have a traveling
partner walk and check as driver moves the rig until all is clear.
TRAVELING
There are various adjustments that need to be made prior to starting and moving
your RV.
• Adjust the rear view and side mirrors.
• The dashboard may contain several gauges and controls you have
not previously used. Become familiar with all these devices and
their operation before starting out.
• The cruise control is not to be operated on icy roads, extremely wet
roads, winding roads, heavy traffic, or in any other traffic situation
where a constant speed cannot be maintained.
• While driving on slippery surfaces, use care when accelerating
or decelerating. Skidding and loss of vehicle control may be the
result of abrupt changes in speed.
• Driving through water deep enough to wet the brakes may affect the
stopping distance or cause the vehicle to pull to one side. If you have
driven through deep water, check the brake operation in a safe area
to be sure they have not been affected. Never operate a vehicle if a
difference in braking efficiency is noticeable.
