SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
2-2
WARNING
The water heater and furnace combustion
air exhaust ports may be extremely HOT
during water heater and furnace
operation.
DO NOT
touch these outlets or
allow any material to come in contact with
or cover either the air intake or exhaust
ports while operating the water heater
and/or furnace.
WARNING
DO NOT
use the breakaway switch as a
parking brake. The current needed to
operate the brakes will drain the battery in
a short time and the brakes will release
when the voltage fails.
WARNING
DO NOT
mix different types of tires on the
same vehicle such as radial, bias and
bias-belted tires except in emergencies
because vehicle handling and tire life may
be seriously affected and may result in
loss of control or tire failure.
WARNING
DO NOT
replace a blown fuse with one
that has a higher amperage rating. If a
fuse continues to blow (or circuit breaker
to pop)
DO NOT
attempt to bypass it with
a piece of wire. Determine the reason for
the overload and have it repaired before
using the circuit again.
DO
NOT
attempt
wiring repairs on a “live” circuit. Turn off all
appliances and disconnect the trailer from
all sources of 120-volt and 12-volt
electricity.
WARNING
DO NOT
use a cheater plug (one with the
ground wire pin removed) to hook up your
trailer to a 120-volt plug-in.
DO NOT
use
an extension cord with a lower circuit
rating to plug into an electrical hookup
that is beyond the reach of your trailer’s
power cable.
WARNING
DO NOT operate the 120-volt electrical
system without a proper ground.
WARNING
Test the smoke detector’s operation after
your camping vehicle has been in
storage, before each trip and at least
once per week during use.
