Fuel economy depends on many factors. Your
driving habits can significantly affect your fuel
economy. Some recommendations for
achieving maximum fuel economy are shown:
Keep your tires inflated to the
recommended pressures.
Keep your motor home "tuned-up." An
out-of-tune engine wastes fuel and costs
you money.
Keep your air cleaner clean and your
motor home lubricated according to the
recommendations in this manual and the
Chassis Guide.
Do not overload your motor home or tow
heavy loads.

To avoid breathing exhaust gases, follow
these precautions:
Do not run the engine in confined areas,
such as a closed garage, any longer than
needed to move your motor home in or
out of the area.
Windows should be closed while driving or
running the generator (if so equipped) to
avoid drawing dangerous exhaust gases
into the motor home.
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.
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,
If you are in a parked motor home with
either the engine running or the generator
running there is a potential for exhaust
fumes to filter back into the motor home.
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases as they
contain carbon monoxide, which is a
potentially toxic gas that is colorless and
odorless. Refer to
Sec. 2 Safety
Precautions
, Carbon monoxide alarm.
