Your RV has been equipped with a window(s)
that serves as a secondary means of escape.
The window(s) will allow a quick exit from the
RV during an emergency if access to the
main entrance door is not available. Its red
latches and label easily identify it.

Practice opening the window before an
emergency occurs, and make sure all
occupants know how to operate it.

Open the escape window by rotating the
handles and pushing the window outward.

Shut the window by pulling it in the closed
position and rotating the handles to the
locked position. The exit window must be
locked in transit.

Make sure the exit window is not blocked
by trees or other obstacles.
Do not remove the following label from your
RV:

If a fire does start, follow these basic safety
rules:
1. Have everyone evacuate the RV
immediately.
2. After everyone is clear and accounted for,
check the fire to see if you can attempt to
put it out.
3. If it is large, or the fire is fuel-fed, get clear
of the RV and have the Fire Department
handle the emergency.
4. Do not attempt to use water to put out the
fire. Water can spread some types of fire,
and electrocution is possible with an
electrical fire.

XTINGUISHER
Fire extinguishers are classified and rated by
fire types, A, B, and C. These classifications
identify the kinds of fires or burning materials
they are designed to fight.
Class A – Solid materials such as wood,
paper, cloth, rubber and some plastics.
Class B – Liquids such as grease, cooking
oils, gasoline, kerosene or other flammable
liquids.
Class C – Electrical such as electrical wires
or other live electrical equipment.
A dry chemical fire extinguisher has been
installed in your RV. It is suitable for
extinguishing small fires of the Class B or C
type only. We suggest you become
thoroughly familiar with the operating
instructions displayed on the side of the fire
extinguisher.
NOTE : For information on how to use your
fire extinguisher, refer to the fire extinguisher
user’s manual provided in your Warranty
Packet.
