Congratulations on the purchase of your new
Itasca Spirit motor home, which has been careful-
ly designed, engineered and quality built by
Winnebago Industries, Inc.
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
Please read this operator’s manual complete-
ly to understand how everything in your coach
works before taking it on its “maiden voyage.”
This manual is a quide to safe operation of the
features, equipment and controls in this coach.
Some equipment, such as the vehicle chassis and
certain electronic systems or appliances, have
their own comprehensive, manufacturer supplied
manuals or information sheets which describe
operation of these products in great detail. This
manual will refer you to the manufacturer’s in-
formation included in your Owner
I
NFO
C
ASE
whenever necessary.
SUBJECT ICONS -
To make it easier for you
to find information you’re looking for, we have
placed convenient, pictorial symbols called
“icons” beside many of the subject headings in
this manual. The icons correspond to the subject
matter of the section. These icons were designed
similar to the familiar international symbols
which identify public facilities such as restrooms
and handicap access. There are several examples
of icons on this page.
PAGE ICONS -
The icons at the upper cor-
ners of each page correspond to the primary con-
tent of each main section of the manual, such as
LP Gas, Electrical, Plumbing, etc. This means
you can flip through the manual either forward or
backward and know exactly which main section
you are looking for just by watching the icons at
the top of the page. This means less paging back
and forth.
We also urge you to read the complete
Chassis Operating Guide provided by the
chassis maker and all other operating infor-
mation provided by our equipment suppliers
and manufacturers.
