SECTION 3 –
DRIVING YOUR MOTORHOME
3-14
IMPORTANT:
Long periods of idling are
not good for an engine because the combustion
chamber temperatures drop so low that the fuel
may not burn completely. This will cause carbon
to clog the piston rings and may result in stuck
valves.
Further Information
Refer to the chassis manual provided in your
InfoCase for the manufacturer’s
recommendations on starting and stopping the
engine.
FRONT SERVICE ACCESS

The front hood panel can be opened for access
to the air hose connector and service items such
as filling windshield washer fluid reservoir and
checking the generator oil.
