Icemaker (Optional)
Depending on the floorplan of your unit, an icemaker may be an option. The icemaker operates on 120 volt
electricity. For detailed information, consult the icemaker manufacturer owner’
s manual in the Owner’ s
Information Package provided with your new coach.
Washer/Dryer (Optional)
The plumbing and other preparations for the installation of a compact one piece washer and dryer are standard
features on this coach. To have the washer and dryer factory installed is an option. The washers and dryers used
by Newmar function as those in a home, operating on 120 volt electricity. For more detailed information on the
operating instructions, read the appliance owner’
s manual in the Owner’ s Information Package.
CAUTION
The gray tank valve must be in the “open” position when operating the washing machine.
Carbon Monoxide Detector
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, odorless gas. It is a by-product of the
burning of fossil fuels (gasoline, Propane gas, diesel fuel, etc.). The chassis and
generator engines, furnaces, water heater, Propane gas refrigerator, and range produce
carbon monoxide constantly while they are operating. Carbon monoxide is DEADLY.
Please read and understand the following precautions to protect yourself and others
from the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING
Exhaust gases are deadly. Do not block the tailpipes or exhaust ports. Do not situate the vehicle in a place where the
exhaust gases have any possibility of accumulating either outside, underneath, or inside your vehicle or any nearby
vehicles. Outside air movements can carry exhaust gases inside the vehicle through windows or other openings remote
from the exhaust outlet. Operate engines, carbon monoxide-producing systems, or components only when safe
dispersion of exhaust gases can be assured. Monitor outside conditions to be sure that exhaust continues to be
dispersed safely.
If you, or anyone else, experience any carbon monoxide symptoms (dizziness, nausea, vomiting, muscular
twitching, throbbing in the temples, inability to think coherently, weakness and sleepiness, or intense headaches)
exit the coach immediately. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist. Shut down the unit and do not operate it
until it has been thoroughly inspected and repaired.
WARNING
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE SHOULD YOU OPERATE ANY ENGINE WHILE SLEEPING. When you are sleeping
you will not be able to monitor outside conditions to assure that engine exhaust does not enter into the coach. Check
the exhaust system frequently for damage. If damage is found, do not operate the system. Never modify the exhaust
system(s) in any way.
The detector is equipped with a “sensor activation strip.” This strip must be removed for the detector to operate
properly. This should have been done during the dealer’ s Pre-Delivery Inspection. Please check the detector to
verify that the activation strip has been removed.
Please consult your carbon monoxide detector User’ s Guide for more detailed information.
