SECTION 1

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1-2

DRIVING

· Do not attempt to adjust the driver’s seat

while the vehicle is moving.

· Do not adjust tilt steering in a moving vehi-

cle.

· Do not operate the cruise control on icy or ex-

tremely wet roads, winding roads, in heavy

traffic, or in any other traffic situation where

a constant speed cannot be maintained.

· Use care when accelerating or decelerating

on a slippery surface. Abrupt speed changes

can cause skidding and loss of control.

· Driving through water deep enough to wet

the brakes may affect stopping distance or

cause the vehicle to pull to one side. Check

brake operation in a safe area to be sure they

have not been affected. Never operate any ve-

hicle if a difference in braking efficiency is

noticeable.

· Adverse weather conditions and extremes in

terrain may affect handling and/or perfor-

mance of your vehicle. Refer to your chassis

manual for related information.

FUEL & LP GAS

· All pilot lights must be extinguished and ap-

pliances turned off while refilling the fuel

tank or LP tank.

· Never smoke while refilling vehicle fuel tank

or LP gas tank.

· Avoid inhaling exhaust gases produced by

burned gasoline, diesel fuel or LP gas in

items such as the range, chassis engine, gen-

erator engine, refrigerator, furnace and water

heater. They contain carbon monoxide,

which is an odorless, colorless and poisonous

gas.

· Do not bring or store LP gas containers, gas-

oline or other flammable liquids inside the

vehicle because a fire or explosion may re-

sult. LP gas containers are equipped with

safety valves which relieve excessive pres-

sure by discharging gas to the atmosphere.

· Do not fill LP gas container(s) above 80 per-

cent of capacity. Overfilling the LP gas con-

tainer can result in uncontrolled gas flow

which can cause fire or explosion. A properly

filled container will contain approximately

80 percent of its volume as liquid LP gas.

· Never use an open flame to test for LP gas

leaks. Replace all protective covers and caps

on LP system after filling. Make sure valve is

closed and door latched securely.

· Never connect natural gas to the LP gas sys-

tem.

· When lighting range burners do not turn

burner controls to “On” and allow gas to es-

cape before lighting match.

· Portable fuel-burning equipment, including

wood and charcoal grills and stoves, shall not

be used inside the recreational vehicle. The

use of this equipment inside the recreational

vehicle may cause fires or asphyxiation.

· LP gas regulators must always be installed

with the diaphragm vent facing downward.

Regulators are equipped with a protective

cover. Make sure that the regulator vent faces

downward and that the cover is kept in place

to minimize vent blockage which could result

in excessive gas pressure causing fire or ex-

plosion.

· The following warning label is located in the

cooking area to remind you to provide an ad-

equate supply of fresh air for combustion.
