If you suspect that exhaust fumes are entering the passenger compartment, have the
cause determined and corrected as soon as possible.
If you must drive under these circumstances, close all the windows, and adjust the heating
or cooling system to force outside air into the motor home (set the blower on high speed).
The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the motor home is a properly
maintained ventilation system and an active carbon monoxide detector. To allow for proper
operation of the motor home ventilation system, keep the ventilation inlet grill(s) clear of
snow, leaves or other obstructions at all times.
Maintenance
It is recommended that the exhaust system and vehicle body be inspected by a qualified
motor home service center:
Each time the engine is ready for an oil change.
Whenever a change in the sound of the exhaust is noticed.
Whenever the exhaust system, underbody or rear of the vehicle is damaged.
To allow for proper operation of the motor home ventilation system, keep the ventilation
inlet grill clear of snow, leaves or other obstructions at all times.
For more information refer to your Chassis Guide.

Propane or LP (liquefied petroleum) gas is a clean and efficient form of energy when proper
handling and safety precautions are observed. The propane system in your motor home
furnishes the fuel for cooking, heating, hot water and propane generator (if so equipped).
Propane can also be used as an alternative energy source for refrigeration.
The propane fuel system is comprised of numerous components such as the propane
container, hoses, the propane gas regulator, piping and copper tubing lines to each appliance.
Propane is heavier than air; the gas tends to flow to lower areas and will sometimes pocket in
these low areas, such as the floor. Your motor home is equipped with a propane alarm (refer
to Safety Precautions, Combination Carbon Monoxide (CO)/Propane Alarm).
The following label should be kept permanently affixed to the motor home:
Propane cylinders should not be placed or stored inside the vehicle. LP-gas
cylinders are equipped with safety devices that relieve pressure by discharging
gas into the atmosphere.
