Operate the transmission with the
MODE
function set to Economy
whenever possible; this allows for earlier
shifts and enhanced fuel economy.
Follow the maintenance schedule for the
engine.
trIp preparatIon
The following suggestions are general
guidelines to follow when preparing for a trip:
Items to Carry:
An emergency road kit containing a
flashlight, road flares, warning signs and
a fire extinguisher.
Local, State and National Maps, as
well as a ‘Motor Carrier’ road atlas (for
refueling station and truck repair facility
locations).
Hand tools, a 12 Volt
DC test light, a 120
Volt AC polarity
tester, battery
hydrometer, an
assortment of
blade fuses and
alternator belt.
Potable and non-
potable water hoses,
a water pressure
regulator and
various termination
connectors for sewage.
Inspection:
Ensure all exterior items are stowed or
secured (i.e. TV antenna, ceiling vents
and windows).
Check belts, hoses, battery and engine
fluid levels.
Inspect
the engine,
transmission and generator per the OEM
manuals.
Evenly distribute and secure cargo. Store
heavy items near the rear axle and lighter
items toward the front to prevent uneven
stress and handling problems.
Check all tires outside the motorhome
for accurate pressure and physical
condition. Look around, above and under
the motorhome for obstruction or leaks.
Test all exterior lighting: headlamps,
taillights, brake and clearance lights.
Inside the motorhome store and secure
heavier objects in the lower cabinets to
maintain a low center of gravity for sway
reduction. Secure loose items to prevent
weight shifts. Store lighter items in the
overhead cabinets. Close and secure all
cabinet doors and drawers, shower and
pocket doors. Turn off interior lighting.
Adjust exterior mirrors and check dash
gauges for proper operation.
INFORMATION
For chassis maintenance details refer to
the chassis section.
CAUTION
Open the bay doors slowly after a trip as
cargo may shift during travel.
WARNING
To avoid injury, never place hands or
fingers near the edges of the bay door
when opening or closing. Always use the
latch handle. Apply pressure with the
other hand just above the latch handle.
TIPS
Multi-purpose items, versatile clothing
and periodic removal of unused cargo
will streamline cargo storage.
