SECTION 4 –
APPLIANCES AND SYSTEMS
MOTORAID WATER HEATER
–If Equipped
The Motoraid uses heat from the chassis
engine cooling system to heat water in the water
heater while driving. Hoses are routed from the
engine to a heat exchanger surrounding the water
heater tank.
Under normal conditions, the entire contents
of the water heater can be heated in about two
hours or 100 miles of driving. This means you
can have hot water at the faucets immediately
upon arriving at a site.
The Motoraid also increases the capacity of
the engine cooling system, allowing the engine to
run cooler under many conditions.
PROPANE GAS FURNACE
To Start Up:
1. Open the LP gas tank valve by turning fully
counter-clockwise
.
2. Move THERMOSTAT switch from Off to
Heat and press the Temp Selector button (Up/
Down arrows) until the desired temperature is
shown in the display.
3. Furnace fan should start to blow immediately
after setting the thermostat.
4. After about 30 seconds, the furnace burner
should light.
5. The furnace should now cycle off and on
automatically as the thermostat demands just
like a household furnace.
NOTE: If heat does not come out of the heat
ducts after a minute or so the burner is
not lit.
Turn thermostat off for 3-5 minutes,
check to be sure propane gas tank valve
is open and tank is not empty, then try
steps 2-4 again.
If the furnace will not light after three
attempts, go to Shut Down steps and
contact your dealer or a local RV service
center for repair.
To Shut Down:
1. Slide thermostat switch to Off position.
2. Close propane tank valve if coach will be
stored for a period of time.
Further Information
Please see the furnace operating instructions
provided in your InfoCase for further
information, including operating precautions,
CAUTION
Any leak in the heat exchanger or its
supply or return lines could cause loss of
coolant and subsequent engine failure.
We recommend that you periodically
inspect these connecting lines and the
heater to insure that no leaks have
developed.
