• Upon climbing steep, long grades and again descending, use lower gears even before it
seems necessary. Use your brakes smoothly and evenly.
• Drive slowly during wet and icy conditions to ensure better control of your vehicle.
If you are new to trailering, please take time to practice your towing, parking and backing
skills prior to your travels. Your dealer can answer many of your questions, but nothing
replaces practice. We recommend you find a large and quiet parking lot to practice your
skills. Check all exterior lights before each trip. Obey traffic laws, allow extra time for
stopping and decrease speed when visibility is limited or roads are wet. Have a safe and
wonderful trip!

Weights and Cargo Capacity
For safety reasons, it is very important to provide RV owners with the most accurate
weight information available. The “Federal Certification” label, located on the left front
corner of the sidewall, supplies a portion of this information.
There are four important weight terms an owner needs to understand when operating a
towable recreational vehicle:
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
– The GVWR equals the most or maximum
weight your recreational vehicle should weigh with all liquids (water, LP Gas, if
applicable), food, clothing, camping supplies, and
ALL OPTIONS
loaded in the coach
when attached to tow vehicle. The sum of the empty trailer weight plus cargo cannot
exceed the GVWR.
Unloaded Vehicle Weight (UVW)
– The UVW, also called the “Empty Shipping
Weight” is the weight of the coach as it was manufactured at the factory without liquids,
factory options or dealer accessories included.
Net Carrying Capacity (NCC)
– The NCC equals the maximum weight of all liquids,
options, dealer installed options and owner’s cargo consisting of food, clothes, camping
equipment, etc.
Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR)
– The maximum weight
that may be placed on an axle as-
sembly. The sum of this rating is
the weakest link of the tires, wheels,
springs, axles or brakes.
The weight provided in the Jayco
literature for your camper is based
on standard equipment on that par-
ticular model and are “dry” (i.e. no
liquids or cargo). Remember that
any options or personal cargo added
must be subtracted from the avail-
able cargo capacity.
Never exceed
the gross vehicle weight rating of
your camper.
