APPLIANCES
The appliances installed in your motor home are
tested and listed, and comply with standards from
UL or simular agencies. All appliances are cov-
ered by Fleetwood’s Ownercare Warranty pro-
gram. Each appliance is also warranted by its
manufacturer.
WATER HEATER
(If Equipped)
The water heater operates on propane, or, if so
equipped, with 120-volt AC power, and is much
like the one in your home. It contains an auto-
matic shut off valve which stops the propane
supply if the water temperature rises too high.
The water heater is reached through an access
panel on the outside of the motor home.
Turn on the hot water faucet at the galley sink.
If water flows continuously the heater is full.
Water Heater Bypass Valve
This valve is provided to cut off the flow of water
to the water heater. The water heater bypass valve
greatly reduces the quantity of antifreeze required
to winterize the water system. The valve is usu-
ally located near the water heater. Consult with
your dealer for the location in your particular unit.
To bypass the water heater, turn the lever valve
vertical.
To supply water heater with water, turn lever
horizontal.
REFRIGERATOR
Read the operating instructions furnished in your
Owner’s Information Package and determine
which type of refrigerator is installed in your
motor home. Some motor motor homes may
have a "residential" refrigerator and operating
instructions may differ. Before operating the
refrigerator when the motor home is parked,
make sure it is level. If it is not level, the refrig-
erant will not circulate, cooling action will stop,
and the refrigeration system may be damaged.
The standard type RV refrigerator uses the
absorption principle of operation. If you plan to
cool food or drinks in high outside tempera-
tures, precool the food, and, if possible, park the
motor home with the refrigerator vent door in
the shade. Once the interior of the refrigerator is
cool, the refrigeration system will usually main-
tain this temperature. If the inside of the refrig-
erator is hot, the food is not precooled, and the
outside temperature is high, it will take longer
for your food to be cooled.
FORCED AIR FURNACE
(If Equipped)
The furnace is a forced-air unit fueled by
propane. All furnaces are equipped with a wall
thermostat for temperature setting.
The furnace will not operate properly if your
stored personal items block the free flow of air at
9-1
NOTE
The individual appliance manuals included in your
Ownerʼs Information Package contain detailed oper-
ating and maintenance instructions. Always refer to
the respective manual for the appliance in question.
WARNING
The water heater and furnace combustion air exhaust
ports may be hot when the water heater and furnace
are operating. Do not touch these outlets or allow any
material to come near the exhaust ports while operat-
ing the water heater and/or furnace.
!
CAUTION
Do not light water heater until it is filled with water.
