EXTERIOR FEATURES
TOWING HITCH
EXTERIOR SIDES
On the rear of the Phaeton is a Class 3,
15,000-pound towing hitch (Figure 11-1) capable
of handling a tongue weight of 1,500 pounds.
This hitch is installed for towing a passenger car
to be used when the vehicle is parked. The wire
connector installed with this hitch is a standard,
seven-pin connector. (Refer to page 66, figure
9-12)
The sides (Figure 11-2) of your Pha-
eton are constructed of gel-coated
fiberglass.
To add to this feature, the end caps
are also gel-coated fiberglass. To
clean these fiberglass surfaces, only
use warm water and a mild cleanser;
gently wash with soft cloths. Use of
stiff bristle brushes or other harsh
abrasives may cause scratches in the
fiberglass surfaces.
Please note: Tiffin Motorhomes is
NOT responsible for the weathering
and/or oxidation of gel-coated sur-
faces.
Spacious storage compartments are located on the exterior sides of your Allegro Bus. These external
compartments provide ample, additional space for your belongings while you are traveling. When
stowing materials in these storage compartments, try to “balance” the resultant weight load from front
to rear and from side to side—this will keep the center of gravity of the motor home essentially un-
changed and should not adversely affect the handling characteristics of the motor home when it is in
motion.
