confusion, unconsciousness, and death. Follow
all instructions, cautions, and warnings in this
section.
NEVER ignore any alarm. Failure to respond can
result in injury or death. The Silence Features are
for your convenience only and will not correct a
problem. Always check your touring coach for a
potential problem after any alarm. Failure to do so
can result in injury or death.

Diesel Exhaust

The touring coach engine and hydronic heating/hot
water system run on diesel fuel and expel exhaust
fumes externally� To avoid unsafe conditions or
exposure to fumes and safely run the engine and
hydronic system:
1� DO NOT run the engine or hydronic heating/hot
water system in an enclosed building or a partly
enclosed area such as a garage�
2� DO NOT operate the engine or hydronic heating/
hot water system when parked close to objects that
could block the exhaust and force fumes inside;
examples include thick vegetation, snow, buildings,
and other vehicles�
3� DO NOT operate the engine or hydronic heating/
hot water system when parking the vehicle in high
grass or brush� The heat from exhaust system
components could cause a fire in dry conditions.
4� DO NOT touch any part of either exhaust system
when the engine or hydronic heating/hot water
system is running or immediately after shutting
off� The heat coming off exhaust systems can
cause burns� Allow the exhaust(s) to cool before
attempting maintenance or service�
Exposure to diesel exhaust fumes may cause
headaches, nausea, chest tightness, wheezing,
cough, and irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat.

WARNING
Hot exhaust system components can cause burns
if touched, even briefly.

Fire Extinguisher

The fire extinguisher should be checked for charge
on a regular basis� Make sure your family knows
how to release the extinguisher storage bracket and
how to properly operate the extinguisher� Check with
your local fire department for professional advice on
its operation and use if you find the directions on the
extinguisher unclear� They will be able and willing to
assist you and your family�
Read the directions carefully on the fire
extinguisher. If there is any doubt on the operation
you and your family should practice, then replace
or recharge the extinguisher. You will find your
local fire department will be happy to assist you
and answer any questions.
Do not smoke inside the touring coach. Keep
matches out of reach of small children. Do not
clean with flammable material. Keep flammable
material away from open flame. We have all heard
these warnings many times, but they are still
among the leading causes of fires.
