The furnace installed in your RV is controlled 
by a thermostat. The furnace requires both 
12-volt power and propane gas for full 
operation. Make sure you have sufficient 
power available before operating your furnace 
If you have any questions contact your dealer 
or our customer service department. 

 

A qualified RV technician should perform all 
furnace maintenance at least once a year 
(more often depending on furnace usage). 
Never attempt to repair the furnace yourself.

HECKLIST

 

When the time arrives to return home, it is 
again critical that you complete the necessary 
procedures to ensure a safe trip. As you 
develop a routine, it is possible that a 
checklist will be helpful. This is a general list, 
which you may want to customize as you 
determine your own needs.  
 

Safety 

_  Make sure you follow all safety precautions 

noted in this owner’s manual and in any 
manufacturer’s operators manual when 
preparing to travel home. 

 

Interior 

_  Close roof vents 
_  Close windows & latch blinds 
_  Put away counter items away or tie down 
_  Furnace turned off 
_  Latch drawers, cabinets & doors 
_  Lights turned off 
_  Lower TV antenna  
_  Move slideout in and lock it in place (if 

applicable) 

_ Position the booth dinette in the bed 

position for travel (if applicable) 

_  Refrigerator door locked 
_  Set refrigerator to 12-volt (if applicable) 
_  Water heater turned off 
_  Water pump turned off 
 

Exterior 

_  Empty black holding tank 
_  Empty gray holding tank 
_  Lock all exterior compartments 
_ Pack equipment into compartments and 

secure it 

_  Propane turned off 
_ Retract awning and secure in place (if 

applicable) 

_ Retract step 
_  Rinse black holding tank, if necessary 
_  Water hose & electric cord unhooked and 

stored 

 

The furnace should be inspected 
periodically (monthly during the heating 
season) for presence of soot on the vent. 
Soot is formed whenever combustion is 
incomplete. This is a visual warning that 
the furnace is operating in an unsafe 
manner. If soot is observed on the vent, 
immediately shut the furnace OFF and 
contact a qualified service agency. 
Operating the furnace under this condition 
could lead to serious property damage, 
personal injury or loss of life.  

To ensure your personal safety, do not 
obstruct or alter the furnace in any manner. 
Do not install screens over the vent for any 
reason. Screens will become restricted and 
cause unsafe furnace operation. For your 
safety, only OEM factory authorized parts 
are to be used on your furnace.
