Interior/Exterior -
Storing under cover
or indoors helps extend interior and
exterior life.
Fuel Tank -
Diesel fuel tank should be
full of fuel.
Removal from Storage
Extensive freeze damage or other serious
deterioration can occur if the motorhome is
not properly winterized. If the motorhome is
properly and carefully prepared for storage,
removal from storage will not be difficult. The
following checklist pertains to items or areas
that should be inspected when it is time to take
the motorhome out of storage and put back into
operation. If you have any questions regarding
storage or winterization, consult a qualified
service technician.
Thoroughly
inspect
the outside of
motorhome. Look for animal nests in the
wheel wells or in other out of the way
places.
Remove all appliance flue vent covers,
ceiling vent covers and air conditioning
covers. Be sure the refrigerator openings
are free of debris, insect nests, webs, etc.
Open all doors and compartments. Check
for animal or insect intrusion, water
damage or other types of damage which
may have occurred.
Check the state of charge of the batteries.
If necessary, fill LLA cells with distilled
water only. Charge as necessary.
Inspect
the cable ends and terminals. They
should be secure and free of corrosion.
Check all the chassis fluid levels: engine
oil, engine coolant, hydraulic fluid
reservoir, transmission oil and rear axle
oil.
Start the engine, allowing it to reach
operating temperature. Ensure the engine
instruments indicate proper readings.
While the engine is running, check the
operation of headlights, taillights, turn
signals, back-up lights, license plate light
and emergency flasher. Operate the dash
air conditioner. If the air conditioner
does not work or the compressor makes
unusual noises, have the system checked
by a qualified air conditioner technician.
Shut the engine down. Adjust or add
fluids as necessary.
Inspect
around the
engine and under the motorhome for
fluid leaks.
Drain, sanitize and flush the fresh water
system as outlined in the
Water Systems
-
Section 6
.
Inspect
the sewer drain hose
and connections for leaks. Replace if
necessary.
Operate all faucets and fixtures in the
fresh water system. Run a sufficient
amount of fresh water through all the
water lines and faucets to thoroughly
purge any potable antifreeze from the
fresh water system.
NOTE
Discard at least the first two trays of ice
from the icemaker to ensure the ice does
not contain traces of antifreeze or other
contaminates.
Open cabinet doors and drawers.
Inspect
for water leaks at joints or fittings.
Repair as necessary.
Operate all 12 Volt DC lights and
accessories. If something does not work
there may be a bad 12 Volt DC circuit
breaker or blown fuse.
Install new batteries in battery operated
safety detectors or devices. Test the
Carbon Monoxide, LP-Gas and smoke
detectors for proper operation.
Check that the monitor panel is properly
functioning.
Inspect
the 120 Volt AC electrical
system which includes the power
cord, inverter/converter, all outlets and
exposed wiring.
NOTE
Prepare the generator for operation
following the instructions in the
Generator OEM manual.
Start and run the generator.
Confirm that the batteries are being
charged. Operate the 120 Volt AC
appliances and air conditioners. If
an electrical item or appliance is not
properly functioning, contact the dealer
or an authorized service center to have it
evaluated.
Have a qualified technician inspect the
LP-Gas system and perform an
LP-Gas leak test. The leak test should
also include an LP-Gas regulator
adjustment (if needed). The test can
also verify if the regulator is faulty and
should be replaced. Have the LP-Gas
tank inspected.
