Never allow gas containers to be filled above the liquid capacity indicated on the
container. If a container is overfilled, liquid gas may flow through the regulator causing
it to freeze and/or introduce a dangerous excessive gas pressure into the lines. In
addition, an overfilled container placed in hot sunlight may expel excess gas through the
relief valve and be susceptible to ignition by any nearby open flame.
Electrical System Safety
Circuit breakers and fuses are installed to protect electrical circuits from overloading. Do
not make unauthorized changes to circuitry or add on fixed appliances yourself. If you
wish to make changes, consult your dealer and he will assist you in obtaining a safe
installation.
An approved power supply cord has been supplied with the vehicle. Always use this cord
for hook-up to the 120-volt source. Note that the cord has a three pin plug, which
provides proper grounding through the third (round) pin. Grounding is your personal
protection from electrical shock.
WARNING:
Do not use an adapter, cheater, or extension cord that will
break the continuity of the grounding circuit connected to the third pin.
NEVER remove the grounding pin to connect a non-grounded, two-prong
receptacle.
Safety When Emergency Stopping
Pull off the roadway as far as possible for emergency situations and turn on the vehicular
hazard warning flashers. If necessary, display your road flags and/or reflective triangular
highway warning devices.
NOTE:
Always carry road flags and/or reflective triangular highway warning devices
to be displayed when necessary.
Additional Safety Considerations
Warning: For traveling safety, it is extremely important to read and under-
stand the towing, hitching and loading cargo information provided in Chapter
3. If you do not understand the information provided, please consult your
dealer or Jayco owner representative.
• Sanitize the fresh water supply system periodically (see sanitizing instructions).
• Prevent water connection fittings from coming in contact with the ground or drain hose
to reduce chance of contamination.
• Enlist services of a qualified or certified RV technician to repair and maintain gas or elec-
trical appliances.
• Always have a serviceable fire extinguisher placed in an easily accessible location.
• Ensure that tires are in good condition and properly inflated. Proper inflation should be
monitored closely. Neglecting to do so could result in overheating of a tire, which could
result in a blowout.
• Check and tighten wheel lugs after the first 10 miles, 25 miles and then again after 50
miles. Check periodically thereafter.
