For your safety while traveling with your Pleasure-Way Motorhome, we have
provided safety components throughout the vehicle. In order for your vehicle
to maintain the safest possible conditions, these components must be tested
and maintained on a regular basis, according to the detailed manufacturer’s
operating instructions.
SMOKE DETECTOR
A smoke detector is located on the ceiling of your unit near
the front. Smoke detectors may give you a warning of fire and
smoke, but only if used and maintained in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
This device should be tested after each time your vehicle has been
in storage, before each trip, and at least once each week during
your travels.
Do not block air circulation in the area where the smoke detector
is located. Ensure you connect the battery inside the detector
upon receiving your new unit. (9 volt battery located inside the
unit.) Install a fully charged fresh battery at least once a year.
All Pleasure-Way Motorhomes in Canada are CSA (through QAI) and CMVSS
certified, and may exceed the approved installation criteria.
All Pleasure-Way Motorhomes in the United States are FMVSS certified and bear
the R.V.I.A. seal of approval, and may exceed the individual state requirements.
OCCUPANT AND CARGO CARRYING CAPACITY
The Tire and Loading Information label, found on the driver side
door pillar, states the OCCC of your motorhome. This figure states
the maximum allowable weight of all occupants (including the
driver), plus the weight of all food, tools, full fresh water tanks,
and personal belongings. The tongue weight of a towed trailer also
counts as cargo. If you are traveling with water in your holding
tank, weight can be calculated by using this ratio: 1 kg/L or 8.3
lb/gal.
The OCCC of your motorhome was calculated by adding the
weight of: the full LP fuel tank, the full vehicle fuel tank and the
dry weight of the motorhome (as shipped from the factory) and
subtracting that number from the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR).
NOTE:
All US units include a second OCCC label on the inside of
the passenger door.
