Living With Your Motor Home

ENTRY AND SCREEN DOORS
The main entry door uses a latching system
similar to that used in automobiles. It has a
secondary latch as well as a primary latch.
When closing the door, be sure to close it firmly
to engage the primary latch. This will ensure
that the door is fully closed. When traveling,
always lock the dead bolt .
The screen door may be separated from the
main entry door by depressing the catch or
releasing the magnet.
PATIO AWNING
(If Equipped)
An operating and maintenance guide for
your awning is included in your Owner’s
Information Package. It contains complete
instructions for opening and closing the awning,
as well as maintenance and care instructions.
Any awning can collect debris and puddle
water. After it has rained or snowed you should
cautiously retract your awning and/or slide out
box. If necessary occasionally stop the retraction
to allow water to run off. A broom may be used
to assist with water, snow or debris removal.
WINDOWS
Windows in your motor home are either slider
or torque pane type. Open slider windows
by rotating the locking lever and sliding the
window. Open and adjust torque windows by
turning the knob or crank located at the bottom
of the window frame .
On your ventilating windows, water is trapped
by the frame. During a heavy downpour or
washing, water may be seen in the lower portion
of the frame. The sloping sill and weep slots
allow the water to drain to the outside. These
weep slots must be kept clean and free of debris
to drain properly. If left unattended to and
the drains become clogged the window track
may fill and over flow with water creating the
illusion the window is leaking.
If water collects in the bottom channel and
overflows, check the weep slots for debris and
obstructions and clean as necessary.
Damage or failure resulting from the
application of after-market window tinting is
the owner’s responsibility.
Emergency Exit Window(s)
Emergency exit windows are identified by the
red handles and EXIT label. Take time to look
and identify where each emergency exit window
is located. Storm windows should never be
installed over emergency exit windows.
WARNING
Do not operate the hydraulic or electric stepwell
cover while anyone is positioned in the stepwell or
standing on the stepwell cover. A person standing on
the stepwell cover or in the stepwell could lose their
balance and fall if the stepwell cover is operated.
!
WARNING
In the event of a fire or other life threatening
emergency do not attempt to retract the entry step
cover if it is in the out position. Use what ever
method necessary to safely exit the motor home that
will not result to injury to yourself or others.
!
WARNING
Feet, legs, hands, and other body parts could be
pinched or injured during stepwell cover operation.
Keep clear of the stepwell cover during operation.
!
NOTE
Screens are not removable for cleaning. They
may be pushed out of their frames if the window
must be used for emergency exit. In this case, the
screens will be destroyed and will probably have
to be replaced.

WARNING

of a life threatening emergency it should be noted

through the exit window.
