FORMALDEHYDE INFORMATION
NOTE: To aid in dissipation, ventilate the
vehicle by opening all windows and cir-
culating the air with a fan.
CARBON MONOXIDE
WARNING
If you suspect that exhaust fumes are entering
the passenger compartment, have the cause deter-
mined and corrected as soon as possible. If you
must drive under these conditions, drive only
with ALL WINDOWS FULLY OPENED.
The best protection against carbon monoxide
entry into the vehicle body is a properly main-
tained engine exhaust and ventilation system. It is
recommended that the exhaust system and body
be inspected by a qualified motor home service
center.
·
Each time the vehicle is raised for an oil
change.
·
Whenever a change in the sound of the ex-
haust system is noticed.
·
Whenever the exhaust system, underbody or
rear of the vehicle is damaged.
To allow proper operation of the vehicle’s
ventilation system, keep front ventilation inlet
grill clear of snow, leaves or other obstructions at
all times. DO NOT OCCUPY A PARKED VE-
HICLE WITH ENGINE RUNNING FOR AN
EXTENDED PERIOD.
Do not run engine in confined areas, such as a
garage, except to move vehicle in or out of area.
When vehicle is stopped in an UNCONFINED
area with the engine running for any more than a
short period, adjust heating or cooling system to
force outside air into the vehicle as follows:
1. Set fan to medium or high speed and vent
control to air.
2. On vehicles equipped with air conditioning,
set fan to medium or high speed and set con-
trol to obtain maximum vent air.
WARNING
Although Winnebago did not use
formaldehyde based adhesives to
manufacture this vehicle, some raw
materials used, such as plywood, car-
pet and fabrics may contain formalde-
hyde based adhesives which may
release formaldehyde fumes into the
air for an unknown period of time
until total dissipation occurs. Individ-
uals who are allergic to formaldehyde
gas fumes may experience irritation
to eyes, ears, nose and throat.
Although long range effects are not
well understood, testing to date has
not revealed any serious health
effects in humans at the level of emis-
sion from these products.
WARNING
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases, as they
contain carbon monoxide, which is a
colorless, odorless and poisonous gas.
