SECTION 1
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1-6
recommended that the exhaust system and body
be inspected by a qualified motor home service
center.
·
Each time the vehicle is raised for an oil
change.
·
Whenever a change in the sound of the ex-
haust system is noticed.
·
Whenever the exhaust system, underbody or
rear of the vehicle is damaged.
To allow proper operation of the vehicle’s
ventilation system, keep front ventilation inlet
grill clear of snow, leaves or other obstructions at
all times. DO NOT OCCUPY A PARKED
VEHICLE WITH ENGINE RUNNING FOR
AN EXTENDED PERIOD.
Do not run engine in confined areas, such as a
garage, except to move vehicle in or out of area.
When vehicle is stopped in an UNCONFINED
area with the engine running for any more than a
short period, adjust heating or cooling system to
force outside air into the vehicle as follows:
1. Set fan to medium or high speed and vent
control to air.
2. On vehicles equipped with air conditioning,
set fan to medium or high speed and set con-
trol to obtain maximum vent air.
Rear windows should be closed while driving
to avoid drawing dangerous exhaust gases into
the vehicle.
CARBON MONOXIDE
ALARM
If your coach is equipped with a carbon mon-
oxide (CO) alarm, it will be located on the ceiling
in the bedroom area.
The CO alarm is powered by a 9-volt battery
and contains a sensor that is designed to detect
toxic carbon monoxide gas fumes resulting from
incomplete combustion of fuel. It will detect CO
gas from any combustion source such as the fur-
nace, gas range/oven, water heater, refrigerator,
chassis engine, and electric generator engine.
Monthly Testing
Press the TEST button on the face of the alarm
periodically (at least monthly) to check the func-
tion of the alarm and condition of the battery. If
the alarm begins to beep every few seconds, the
battery may be weak and need replacement.
(Press the TEST button to be sure before replac-
ing the battery. If the alarm sounds, the battery
may still be okay. If the alarm still beeps every
few seconds, check the smoke detector also. The
“low battery” warning beep is similar on many
alarm devices, so the origin of this electronic
sound can be deceiving.)
Further Information
Please read the manufacturer’s guide included
in your InfoCase. It includes information on pre-
cautions, operational testing, and battery/sensor
replacement.
EMERGENCY EXITS
Emergency Exit Window
Your motor home is equipped with an emer-
gency exit window which functions as an escape
exit in an emergency situation.
