BEFORE DRIVING AWAY
Provides a brief list of procedures that will aid in your driving safety and extend the life of your coach.
WARNING
Prior to driving your vehicle, be sure you have read your entire owner’s guide and that you understand your
vehicle’s equipment completely. Read and understand all of the instructions and precautions in this owner’s
guide and the chassis manufacturer owner’s manual before operating your new coach.
Listed below are some safety precautions that must be adhered to while your coach is in motion. These precautions, as
well as others that involve possible damage to equipment, are also listed in the appropriate areas in this manual.
There are various adjustments that need to be made prior to starting and moving the vehicle. Among them are the
driver’s seat, the tilt steering, and the exterior side view mirrors, as well as checking the rear view monitoring system. In
addition, the following procedures will aid in your driving safety and extend your equipment’s life.
• Windows, mirrors, and light lenses are to be clean and unobstructed.
• Tires should be checked for proper cold inflation pressure.
• Wheel lug nuts should be checked for proper tightness.
• Fluid levels, including engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, and windshield
washer solvent, should be checked and filled, if necessary.
• Disconnect the unit. Store the sewer and water supply hoses, as well as shoreline power cords.
• Secure all cargo in the storage compartments in the event of a sudden stop.
• Verify that the step has retracted prior to engine ignition.
• Know the overall height of your coach to avoid overhead damage from low clearance bridges, overpasses,
awnings, etc.
