Removal from Storage
If the motorhome was properly and carefully prepared for storage, removing from storage will not
be difficult. The following checklist pertains to items or areas which should be checked before operat-
ing or moving the motorhome. If the motorhome was not properly winterized, extensive freeze damage
or other serious deterioration may have occurred. Consult a dealer or an authorized service center for
advice.
• Thoroughly inspect the outside of motorhome. Look for animal nests in the wheel wells or
in other out of the way places.
• Remove all appliance flue vent covers, ceiling vent covers and air conditioning covers. Be
sure the refrigerator openings are free of debris, insect nests, webs, etc.
• Open all doors and compartments. Check for animal or insect intrusion, water damage
or other types of damage which may have occurred.
• Check the state of charge of the batteries. If necessary fill the cells with distilled water
only and charge as necessary. Inspect the cable ends and terminals. They should be clean
and free of corrosion.
• Check all the chassis fluid levels: engine oil, engine coolant, hydraulic fluid reservoir,
transmission oil and rear axle oil.
• Start the engine, allowing it to reach operating temperature. Ensure the engine instruments
are indicating proper readings.
• While the engine is running check the operation of headlights, taillights, turn signals, back-
up lights, license plate light and emergency flasher. Operate the dash air conditioner. If the
air conditioner does not work, or the compressor makes unusual noises, have the system
checked by a qualified air conditioner technician.
• Shut the engine down. Adjust or add fluids as necessary. Inspect the engine for fluid leaks.
Look under the motorhome for fluid leaks.
• Drain, sanitize and flush the fresh water system as outlined in the Water Systems -
Section 6 . Inspect the sewer drain hose and connections for leaks. Replace if necessary.
