Vehicle Dash
Maintenance
To clean the vinyl/ABS dash, soak a soft cloth in a solution of mild detergent and water.
Wipe off the dash. To rinse, dip a cloth in fresh water and wring it out well. Wipe off the
detergent thoroughly.
Do not set anything on, or attach anything to, the instrument panel or dash. Do
not attach anything to the steering wheel cover. Failure to follow these warn-
ings may restrict the driver’s visibility or cause an object to strike and injure
an occupant in the case of a collision or sudden stop.
Campsite Hook-Up
Refer to
Electrical Systems
section before connecting the shore line power cord
(when using full hook-up) or operating the vehicle on 12-volt power when dry
camping.
Refer to
Plumbing Systems
section before connecting the fresh water supply or
turning ON the water pump or water heater.
When using full hook-up, connect the sewer hose to the campsite sewer hook-up.
If applicable, start the refrigerator and the cooling or heating system.
NOTE: For extended dry camping, management of all your resources is es-
sential. Check your battery levels and conserve battery power, use it spar-
ingly.
Improper installation or failure to properly secure a child restraint may
result in failure of the restraint.
Follow the child restraint manufacturer’s directions exactly when install-
ing an infant or child restraint. Be aware of all warnings and safety infor-
mation included with any infant or child safety restraint system.
Never place a front or rear facing child restraint in the front seat of a
vehicle. A deploying passenger front air bag can cause death or serious
injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in a child restraint.
A child restraint should only be installed in a rear seat.
To ensure proper safety belt fit, always use booster seats for children who
are size and age appropriate. Refer to the governmental safety regula-
tions for child sizing charts.
Failure to follow these guidelines can result in serious injury or death.
Emergency Stopping
Always carry road flares or reflective warning signs. Pull off the roadway as far as possible
for emergency stopping. Turn ON your vehicle hazard warning flashers. If traveling at
night, use three red warning indicators such as flares, reflectors or lanterns as required by the
Uniform Vehicle Code and Model Traffic Ordinance as follows:
1.
Place the first warning indicator on the traffic side of the recreation vehicle, directed at
the nearest approaching traffic.
