owner-provided CB radio, that radio can be used to communicate with other travelers on the road.
To use the one’s CB system of choice, simply follow the directions furnished with the CB radio. (Note:
Channel 11 is considered an emergency channel and monitoring this channel may give one information about
road conditions, accidents, and related matters potentially affecting the travels of the motor-home operator).
To talk with someone, simply press the “push-to-talk” switch and speak. To listen to any reply, release the
“push-to-talk” switch and listen to the speaker. Remember that communications are “one-way,” not “two-
way” simultaneously—one must talk, then allow some listening time for others to talk. Consequently, it’s better
to make brief transmissions and allow others to comment; rather than making prolonged speeches and possibly
not having anyone answer.
Observe the common courtesies (see the owner’s manual for more details) and acceptable speech. Several
states have their Highway Patrols monitor the CB frequencies (check for exact channels for each state of
interest) to learn about highway problems and emergencies. Be aware of these throughout one’s travels, in the
event that they may be needed.
Navigational System
The optional in-dash navigational system (Figure 4-18) will assist you in marking a route to a destination or
destinations on a map, guiding you along the route to the destination. The GPS
(Global Positioning System) uses communications satellites launched by the US
Department of Defense. Signals are received from three or more satellites
orbiting at 21,000 km altitude, and the principle of triangulation is used to find the
position. By receiving GPS signals, this system can position the vehicle within a
margin of error of 30 to 200 m.
Reception may not be possible in locations such as: in tunnels; between tall
buildings; under elevated roads; or between trees.
Your navigational system is designed and manufactured to ensure a minimum of
maintenance. Use a dry soft cloth for routine exterior cleaning. Never use benzene, thinner, or other solvents.
When the unit is dirty, wipe the surface of the display using the supplied wiping cloth.
NOTE:
If water drops
or similar wet substances get inside the monitor, it may cause a malfunction. Since there is the possibility of
water drops getting inside of the unit, do not directly apply cleanser to the surface. Do not scratch the screen
with your nails or other hard objects. The resulting scratches or marks will obscure the images.
Triple Vision Camera Monitor System
The rear-view monitoring system (Figure 4-19) is provided to aid the driver in
backing and parking the motor home. A camera mounted on the rear of the
vehicle feeds a televised view of the rear of the motor home to the monitor
located in the front near the driver. If the mode switch is in the “manual” mode,
the monitor will be “on” when the ignition switch is turned “on.” If the mode
switch is in the “automatic” mode, the monitor will display the picture from the
rear-mounted camera only when the transmission is in “reverse” gear. To use this
