Identification and Safety
The motor home serial number label is mounted on the inside wall next to the driver’s
seat on a Class A motor home and on the inside of the driver’s door post on a Mini
motor home. Refer to the chassis owner’s manual for the location of the chassis
vehicle identification number on all motorized motor homes.
Note: Always give model, year, and the V.I.N. number information
when ordering parts. Also, we recommend that you keep
a copy of this information separate from the motor home in
the event theft or vandalism requires you to supply a copy to
the authorities.
Decals and data plates used throughout the motor home aid in its safe and efficient
operation; others give service instructions. Read all decals, data, and instruction
plates before operating your motor home.
Note: When any decal, data, or instruction plate is damaged,
painted over, removed, etc.; the item should be replaced
immediately.
The following warnings are posted throughout the motor home to provide information
on Propane safety. They have been installed not only because of the requirement to
do so, but also as a constant reminder to occupants of the motor home to exercise
proper caution when using or being around Propane appliances and equipment. We
are listing them here so you may study them and make sure that you and your family
understand and follow them.
IT IS NOT SAFE TO USE COOKING APPLIANCES FOR
COMFORT HEATING. COOKING APPLIANCES NEED
FRESH AIR FOR SAFE OPERATION.
TO ENSURE PROPER VENTILATION BEFORE
OPERATING A PROPANE APPLIANCES YOU SHOULD
OPEN OVERHEAD VENTS, TURN ON THE EXHAUST
FAN, AND OPEN A WINDOW.
Warning labels are located in the cooking area to remind you to provide an adequate
supply of fresh air for combustion. Unlike homes, the amount of oxygen supply is
limited due to the size of the motor home, and proper ventilation when using the
cooking appliances will avoid dangers of asphyxiation.
It is advisable to contact the Department of Motor Vehicles in each respective state,
for up-to-date information regarding operation and licensing requirements for your
particular motor home.
The state of California currently requires operators of motor homes over 40 feet
in length to obtain a non-commercial class B license. California has also enacted
legislation limiting use of motor homes in excess of 40 feet, to approved roadways.
You may contact Caltrans at www.dot.ca.gov or 916-654-5741 for current information
regarding these California statues.
