How to Operate and Maintain the Furnace
This article provides basic operation and maintenance instructions for a forced-air furnace. The furnace installed in your

touchscreen panel. This thermostat controls both the heating and cooling of the coach. The heat is supplied throughout
the coach via the ducts in the floor.
For more information about the thermostat and KIB
touchscreen, refer to Newgle.
