Restraint equipment must be replaced after an accident if they have been damaged. If there is any question regarding
belt or retractor condition, replace the belt. It is a good idea to have your restraint system inspected during each periodic
scheduled maintenance session. If the belts need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or lukewarm water. Do not remove
the belts from the vehicle to wash them.
WARNING
Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with chemical solvents or abrasive cleaners. This may severely weaken
the fabric. In a crash, they might not be able to provide adequate protection.
FIRE SAFETY
The possibility of fire exists
in all areas of life, and the
recreational lifestyle is no
exception. Recreational
vehicles are complex
machines made up of many
materials, some of which
are flammable. Like most
hazards, the possibility of
fire can be minimized, if not
totally eliminated by
recognizing the danger and
practicing common sense
safety and maintenance
habits. For safety reasons,
your unit is furnished with
both a fire extinguisher and
a smoke alarm.
DANGER
If a fire occurs in the vehicle, evacuate the vehicle as quickly and as safely as possible. Consider the cause
and the severity of the fire and the risk involved before trying to extinguish it. If the fire is major or fuel fed,
move away from and stand clear of the vehicle and wait for emergency assistance to arrive.
SMOKE DETECTORS
The smoke detector installed in your coach is operated on a 9 volt battery. The smoke detector is mounted on the ceiling
in the living area of the unit. Read the operating instructions for details on the testing and care for this important safety
device.
Test the smoke detector after the unit has been in storage, before each trip, and at least once a week during use. Check
your smoke detector for the manufacturer’s expiration date. The battery needs to be tested periodically and replaced
once a year and/or when the low battery signal sounds.
When cleaning the case on any of the detectors, use a damp cloth or paper towel. Do not spray cleaners or wax directly
into the case as it may cause false alarms.
IMPORTANT
The detector should never be disabled because of nuisance or false alarm from cooking smoke or a dusty
furnace. Ventilate the unit with fresh air and the alarm will shut off. Never disconnect or remove the battery
from the smoke alarm.
