Owner’s Information Package
The Owner’s Information Package (Figure 1-2) includes valuable documents about your Phaeton and its
components and systems. By consulting the booklets and instruction
manuals included in the Owner’s Information Package, you will learn
how to operate, maintain, and troubleshoot these items safely and
effectively. The Tiffin Motorhomes Phaeton Owner’s Guide does not
cover every possible detail of equipment—standard and/or optional—
installed on or in your vehicle.
As with all valuable documentation, please keep them in a safe, secure
place for your later use and consultation. When you complete and mail
to the respective manufacturer(s) any warranty/guaranty registration
card(s), make a photocopy of both sides of each card prior to mailing and
keep the photocopy in your permanent records for your Phaeton Motor
Home.
Customer Relations
If you wish to schedule maintenance or service or wish to order parts, you should notify your local authorized
Tiffin Motorhomes Dealership to set up an appointment. If you are unsure of the location of your nearest,
authorized Tiffin Motorhomes Dealership; please access the Tiffin Motorhomes website at
www.tiffinmotorhomes.com
and then click on the “Dealer Locater” button, then enter in the appropriate
search criteria such as zip code and search radius or dealer name and state, then click on “Find Locations”—the
dealer’s name, address, and telephone number will then be displayed for your use.
Specification Labels
There are two main numbers used to identify your Phaeton. The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is the
legal identification of the completed vehicle. The VIN is the
number used by the state for vehicle identification and registration.
Additionally, there is a Tiffin Motorhomes serial number (Figure 1-
3). The Tiffin number is needed when you plan to make an
appointment for service or ordering parts through your Tiffin
Motorhomes Dealership or Service Center. This number can be
found on the side of the dashboard. A typical sample of this
identification label is shown, above, on the right.
Another label affixed to your Allegro Bus is the Recreational Vehicle Industrial Association (RVIA) Weight
Label which is a required label for your vehicle. Tiffin Motorhomes, a manufacturer-member of RVIA, has the
obligation to disclose the following information, at minimum, to the purchaser of the motor home:
