FORMALDEHYDE
INFORMATION
Some of the materials used in this recreational
vehicle emit formaldehyde. Eye, nose, and throat
irritation, headache, nausea, and a variety of
asthma-like symptoms, including shortness of
breath have been reported as a result of
formaldehyde exposure. Reaction to
formaldehyde exposure may vary among
individuals. Elderly persons and young children,
as well as anyone with a history of asthma,
allergies, or lung problems may be at greater risk.
Research is continuing on the possible long-term
effects of exposure to formaldehyde. Inadequate
ventilation may allow formaldehyde and other
contaminants to accumulate in indoor air.
Ventilation to dilute the indoor air may be
obtained from a passive or mechanical
ventilation system. Always be sure to thoroughly
ventilate your recreational vehicle before and
