DRIVING YOUR MOTORHOME
NOTE: If your coach is featured with a beverage
tray, it may need to be removed to
provide additional clearance before
removing the engine cover.
If the beverage tray is equipped with a
drawer, it must be removed to expose the
fasteners that hold the tray to the engine
cover.
•
To reinstall the engine cover
, position the
front end of the cover first, then lower the rear
end.
It is important to ensure the front edge is
pushed completely forward to the radiator
cover to ensure an air-tight seal.
•
Press the rear end of the engine cover down
and turn the hex wrench to the right
(clockwise) until the latch pulls the cover
downward and stops.
•
Reinstall the screws at the lower front corners
on each side of the engine cover (if equipped).
ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
Do not remove the radiator cap while engine
and radiator are still hot. Always check coolant
level visually at the see-through coolant
reservoir.
NOTE: Your chassis engine cooling system is
filled with special extended-life coolant
that is not the same as common anti-
freeze available at retail outlets.
The coolant system MUST be refilled or
topped up with the same type of coolant
as equipped to maintain the special long-
life properties.
Further Information
Refer to the chassis manual in your InfoCase
for information and precautions on filling,
servicing, and checking the fluid level.
TIRES
Improper tire pressure can result in tire
overloading and abnormal wear and also affects
handling, ride characteristics, and fuel economy.
SUSPENSION ALIGNMENT
AND TIRE BALANCE
The front suspension and steering system of
this vehicle was factory aligned using highly
accurate equipment prior to delivery to the
dealership. However, alignment should be
checked and adjusted after you have fully loaded
the motorhome according to your personal needs.
Thereafter, the alignment should be periodically
inspected to help prevent uneven tire wear.

NOTICE
When refilling the coolant system of a
vehicle equipped with a rear auxiliary
automotive heater and motoraid water
heater, be sure to allow for additional
coolant capacity of the heater and its
supply and return hoses.
WARNING
Make sure all replacement tires are of the
same size and rating as those shown on
your Vehicle Certification Label.
