Driving through water deep enough to wet the brakes may affect stopping distance or cause
the vehicle to pull to one side. Check the RV’s brake operation in a safe area to be sure they
have not been affected.
Never operate any vehicle if a difference in braking efficiency is
noticeable.
Vehicle Clearance
Remember some bridges, older ones in particular, may not support the weight of your
tow vehicle/RV combination. Know the weight and size of your towing combination and
observe any posted weight and clearance limits. The added height of roof air conditioners,
TV antennas or floodlights may cause clearance problems around some tunnels, canopies
and hanging signs.
Turning Corners
When turning, the tires do not follow the path of your tow vehicle tires. The RV will make a
tighter turn than the tow vehicle.
You must compensate for this action by carefully pulling the tow vehicle out into the
intersection further than you would normally so that the RV clears the curb (or any parked
vehicles along the curb).
When making a turn, check the road clearance and be aware of others. Have someone
help guide you out of a difficult parking space or traffic pattern. Swerves and sharp turns,
especially at high speeds, could result in loss of control of the RV.
Backing up
If your camping destination does not have pull through sites, pick a level site and back in
carefully. We suggest you stop near the site, get out of the RV and observe the surrounding
area. Check to ensure there are no obstacles in your path and that you have plenty of vehicle
clearance. Check for low-hanging tree limbs, posts, large rocks or other obstacles.
Try to choose a site that is on the driver’s side, so you can see what the rear of the RV is
doing. With the site on the passenger side, you would be backing into the site on your blind
side, which is more difficult.
When you determine the site conditions are satisfactory, maneuver the RV into position for
backing up into the site space. Back the RV up slowly using your tow vehicle mirrors as a
guide. Have another person outside the RV assist you until the RV is parked in the desired
position.
Parking
After the RV is in the desired location, set the tow vehicle parking brake and place the
transmission in park. Turn OFF the ignition switch. Go outside the RV and block all wheels
securely with wheel chocks. The wheel chocks can be wood blocks or purchased items as
long as they prevent the RV from rolling.
