Alignment can be affected by worn steering/ suspension parts or by incidents which happen
during driving, such as hitting a curb, pothole, log railroad track, etc. Improper alignment can
cause tires to roll at an angle and wear unevenly. It may also cause the vehicle to "pull" to the
right or left.
Have your dealer inspect your vehicle's
suspension and steering components periodically for misalignment or wear.
Out-of-balance tires will not roll smoothly and can lead to vibrations and uneven tread wear,
such as cupping and flat spots. Tires may need to be balanced if uneven wear is detected or if
ride comfort decreases noticeably.

SECTION 4
– APPLIANCES AND SYSTEMS
The appliances installed in your motorhome are manufactured by reputable RV appliance
makers and have been tested by independent laboratories to meet all applicable standards and
codes set for RV appliances. It is suggested to read the appliance manuals for their safety and
cleaning an use
See Section 2 - Safety and Precautions of this annual for any safety and precautions you need
to take regarding the operation of your appliances.
4-1 REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator in your coach can operate from either of two energy sources available to the
motorhome:
1) 120-Volt AC Electric
2) Propane Gas
To be able to use both types of energy, the refrigerator does not have a compressor like
household refrigerators. Instead, it uses an ammonia-water solution for cooling. Basically,
ammonia vapor is distilled from the solution by heat produced from either propane gas flame or
electrical heat element. The ammonia vapor is then carried to the finned condenser where it
liquefies. The liquid then flows to an evaporator where it creates cooling by evaporation. The
ammonia circulates back into the water solution and the cooling cycle continues.
Leveling
Before operating the refrigerator when the motorhome is stationary, place a small level on the
bottom of the refrigerator and make certain the unit is level. If over 1/2 of the bubble is inside the
circle in any direction, the coach is level enough for continuous operation of the refrigerator
while parked.
NOTICE:
To prevent permanent damage to the refrigerator cooling unit, turn the refrigerator off
if the vehicle will be parked on an incline of over 3° side-to-side or 6° front-to-rear (such as
steep driveways or parking lots, etc.) for more than one hour.
Basic Operation
Slide the control switches to the operating positions described and observe the indicator lights.
