INTRODUCTION

2008 MODEL

The

Owners Manual

for your new Airstream trailer is designed to respond to the most

frequent inquiries regarding the operation, function and care of the many systems that

make modern trailering a joy.

Airstream realizes our customers possess varying degrees of expertise in the area of

repairing and maintaining the appliances in their trailer. For this reason, the service

and trouble-shooting information found in this manual is directed toward those with

average mechanical skills.

We also realize you may be more familiar in one area than you are in another. Only you

know your capabilities and limitations. We want you to use this manual, and hope you

will ﬁnd the information contained in it useful, however, should you ever feel you may

be “getting in over your head” please see your dealer to have the repairs made.

A brief explanation of the operation of the appliances such as refrigerator, furnace,

water heater and others are explained in this manual. However, you will also find

the manufacturer’s information supplied in a packet included with this manual

more detailed.

All information, illustrations and speciﬁcations contained in this manual are based on

the latest product information available at the time of publication approval. If and when

new materials and production techniques are developed which can improve the quality

of its product, or material substitutions are necessary due to availability, Airstream

reserves the right to make such changes.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual. Always read and

obey all safety messages.

WARNING

indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.
