CARE & MAINTENANCE
WINDSHIELD WASHERS AND
WIPERS
See your chassis operating guide for recom-
mendations, precautions and replacement
information on washers and wipers.
The windshield washer fluid reservoir is locat-
ed in the front of the coach, at the right hand side,
behind the “hood” panel. A long-necked funnel
may be required for refilling. We recommend
using commercially available premixed solutions
for best results. Do not use water in freezing
temperatures.
LIGHTS
All exterior lights should be checked for prop-
er operation each time the vehicle is prepared for
a trip. Any bulbs which fail to light should be
checked and replaced, when necessary, with a
new bulb of the same size. A failure of more than
one light, such as both taillights not operating,
may indicate a burned out fuse. Check fuse and
replace with one of the same rating when neces-
sary. If a fuse is not the cause of the problem, the
wiring system should be checked immediately by
an authorized service center.
The headlight circuit is protected by an auto
reset circuit breaker built into the headlight
switch. An overload on the breaker will cause the
lights to flicker on and off. Headlight wiring
should be checked immediately anytime this con-
dition is apparent. Refer to your chassis operating
guide for further information.
AUTOMOTIVE 12-VOLT FUSES AND
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The automotive fuses and breaker are conve-
niently located on the automotive fuse/breaker
panel behind the “hood” panel as shown below.
The circuit breakers will pop outward if they
are tripped. Simply push in to reset.
Always replace plug-in type fuses with those
of the same amperage size.
