CAMPING
EXTERIOR WINDOWS
There is one opening window on each side of the trailer. For normal use open and then
turn the release knob, loosen the red telescopic rod knob, push open the window to
the distance you desire and tighten the red telescopic rod knob. For normal use do
not open window past the plastic cover on the end of the telescopic rod.
Both opening windows are emergency exit windows. Make sure you, and everyone
traveling with you can operate the rear doors and the emergency exit windows rap-
idly without light. Run frequent emergency drills. The escape windows are identified
by red release knobs on the telescoping rod and are opened by lifting up the release
latch, then turning the latches toward the center. Loosen the red telescoping rod
knob. Push out on the glass and it will swing clear. The telescopic rod has a plastic
rod cover on its end that will pop off allowing the rod to clear the knob assembly. The
window can then be swung open enough to allow escape.
For testing purpose the plastic rod cover can be removed and replaced as needed.
The window operation should be checked each trip and the latches lubricated with
WD-40 or equivalent every six months.
WARNING
: The escape windows are identified by red release knobs
and are opened by lifting up both latches, then turning the latches toward the
center. Push out on the glass and it will swing clear. The telescopic rod has a
plastic rod cover on its end that will pop off allowing the rod to clear the knob
assembly.
WARNING
: Check the emergency escape routes outside your escape
windows at every stop. At each campsite make sure you have not parked in such
a manner as to block the operation of the escape windows by being too close to
trees, fences or other impediments. Scenic views are one reason for traveling,
but don’t park so the beautiful lake or steep cliff is just outside your escape
window. Never park your trailer so the escape windows cannot be easily used
for emergency exits.
WARNING
: You and all your family should practice escape procedures
so they can be rapidly accomplished even in total darkness. Never block the
interior or exterior access to the emergency escape windows.
The opening and fixed windows are made from tempered glass and are cleaned in
the same manner that automotive windows are. Clean the seals with a damp cloth or
mild detergent every three to six months, taking care not to use a strong solvent, as
it will damage the seals. A coat of natural silicone lubricant applied after the seal has
dried will keep it flexible. Spread the lubricant evenly with a brush or finger, working
it into the surface. This is a good practice for all rubber seals on your Airstream. For
replacement of a damaged window contact an Airstream Dealer Service Center or the
factory.
