Unlike homes, the amount of oxygen supply is
limited due to the size of the recreational vehicle,
and proper ventilation when using the cooking
appliances avoids dangers of asphyxiation.
It is especially important that cooking
appliances not be used for comfort heating, as the
danger of asphyxiation is greater when the
appliance is used for long periods of time.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT
IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
MONITOR PANEL
The Multiplex Switch Panel (located in the
hallway) provides a convenient, central location
for checking the condition of all utility systems in
your motorhome.
The switch panel displays the fresh water and
holding tank levels, propane gas tank level, as
well as the chassis battery and house battery
condition. You can start the generator or turn on
the water pump and water heater.
Water and Holding Tank Levels
The approximate fluid levels are measured by
electronic sensors on the sides of the tanks. Tank
levels are displayed in 5% increments until it
registers full. There is generally more fluid in a
tank than indicated on the monitor panel.
Tank Capacities

Section 1 -
Introduction
.
Propane Gas Level
The propane level is registered by a sending
unit on the tank. The gauge mounted on the side
of the tank will give a more accurate indication of
actual tank level if needed.
WARNING
Portable fuel-burning equipment
including wood and charcoal grills and
stoves, shall not be used inside the
recreational vehicle. The use of this
equipment inside the recreational vehicle
can cause fires or asphyxiation. Failure to
comply could result in death or serious
injury.
NOTICE
Turn off the range and allow it to cool
before closing the range cover. The range
cover is made of glass and may shatter
when heated.
