WARNING: IT IS NOT SAFE TO USE COOKING APPLIANCES FOR COMFORT HEATING!

 

1. Cooking appliances need fresh air for safe operation.

 

 

a. Open overhead vent or turn on exhaust fan.

 

 

b. Open window

 

2. The amount of oxygen supply is limited due to the size of the recreational vehicle, and proper

 

   ventilation when using the cooking appliance(s) will avoid dangers of asphyxiation.

In addition to the hazards of toxic fumes and oxygen depletion, open flames add moisture to the interior air,

increasing condensation. DO NOT use an air humidifier inside the camper. Water put into the air by the

humidifier will greatly increase condensation.

   During prolonged use in very cold weather, leave cabinets and closet doors partially open to warm and ventilate

the interior of storage compartments built against exterior walls. The airflow will warm the exterior wall surface,

reducing or eliminating condensation and minimizing possible ice formation.

RANGE EXHAUST HOOD

The power range exhaust hood is located above the range burners and operates on 12-volt power. Your power

range hood has a filter that must be cleaned or replaced periodically for efficient operation. Wash with hot water

in any household detergent, rinse thoroughly and dry. All dust and greasy surfaces, fan and motor should be

cleaned frequently. Do not use abrasives in cleaning. Your range cleans easily with a warm detergent solution.

For detailed information and maintenance, please refer to the owner’s manual supplied by the manufacturer.

HOT WATER HEATER

Before lighting the water heater, be sure the fresh water system is filled. Purge air from the water heater by

opening the faucets until water flows steadily from each faucet. Damage to the water heater will occur if the

pilot is working and there is no water in the tank. Insure the water heater exterior door is firmly secured. The

vent in this door is necessary for proper combustion. Do not block the airflow through the vent with any form of

windshield. There is an automatic gas valve; no adjustments are necessary.

   If hot water is used with some discretion, there should be an ample supply for all passengers. Gas is
automatically supplied to heat the water to a desired temperature and then automatically shuts off, leaving the
pilot light burning. If the gas supply is cut off for any reason, or if the pilot light is blown out, the gas supply is
automatically cut off and controls will have to be reset to obtain pilot re-lighting. See your instruction book in
your manufacturer information packet for proper care and use.
 

WARNING: DO NOT RUN THE PUMP IF THERE IS NO WATER IN THE FRESH WATER TANK. 

IT WILLDAMAGE THE PUMP.

MICROWAVE

For detailed operating information and maintenance, please refer to the owner’s manual supplied 
by the manufacturer.

AIR CONDITIONER

If your unit is equipped with AC; it is operated on a 110-volt AC power source through

a separate circuit breaker. This is accessed through 110-volt AC power from either a public utility or a generator
(optional). Before using the air conditioner, read the owner’s manual supplied by the manufacturer for a
complete understanding of the proper operation and maintenance.

   Replacing or cleaning the filter with soapy water is recommended if the air conditioner is used daily for a two (2)

week period. A complete instruction manual is provided with the camper. Consult this manual before operation
to insure you are clear of all information needed to correctly operate the air conditioner.
   TLRV will not be responsible for damage caused by condensed moisture on ceilings or other surfaces.
When air enters the camper, condensation may occur. The air conditioner removes this moisture from the air
during normal operation. Keeping doors and windows closed when the air conditioner is in operation will
minimize condensed moisture on cold surfaces.
