ONDENSATION
Condensation is a natural phenomenon. The
amount of condensation will vary with climate
conditions, particularly the relative humidity.
Condensation occurs because there is water
vapor present in the air, which each of us
adds to by breathing, bathing or cooking. The
water vapor usually collects on the coolest
surfaces. When the temperature reaches the
“dew point,” the water vapor in the air
condenses and changes to a liquid form. If
moisture is unable to escape the RV, you will
experience condensation.
Most people have experienced this
phenomenon when moisture forms on their
windows. Outside air is cooling the window on
the outside while inside air is warming the
window on the inside; the resulting moisture is
attracted to that surface and the windows
begin to sweat.
To reduce condensation
Proper ventilation and, if needed, the use of a
dehumidifier (customer supplied) will assist in
controlling condensation. Many RV and
marine dealers carry small dehumidifiers
sized for RV use. Other suggestions are:
•
Crack open windows and roof vents to
allow warm moist air to escape. When
taking a shower open the bath roof vent
approximately ½” allowing the moisture to
escape.
•
Use the range hood fan when cooking or
washing dishes.
•
Avoid hanging wet towels or clothes inside
the RV to dry.
•
If condensation is found in cabinets or
closets, open those doors slightly to
equalize the temperature and provide
ventilation.

Several keys are provided when you
purchase your RV. Most keys have an
individual key number stamped on the plate.
Record these key numbers and keep the
information in a safe place. You can order a
key blank from your dealer to have duplicate
keys made. If you lose the keys, contact your
dealer or a locksmith for assistance.
Make sure the keys are not inside the RV
before you close and lock the entrance door.

The entrance door is located on the curbside
of the RV. Always hold onto the entrance door
when opening or closing it as damage caused
because you failed to do so is not
warrantable.
BE SAFE, LOOK BEFORE ENTERING OR
EXITING YOUR RV!

There are three basic types of slide out (SO)
systems: 12-volt DC electric motor, high
pressure hydraulic and hybrid systems. Your
RV is equipped with a 12-volt DC electric
motor slide out system. With a simple touch of
a few buttons, you can increase the living
space in your RV.
Condensation needs to be taken seriously.
Ignoring it can damage the RV (damage
caused by condensation is not
warrantable), and more importantly could
lead to mold or mildew issues which could
be a health hazard.
Make sure the entrance door is completely
closed and locked when traveling. Locking
the door helps prevent it from opening
unintentionally.
The slide out system must be retracted for
travel. Do not tow your RV without securing
each individual slide out room in the closed
(retracted) position.
