CAUTION: We recommend weighing your motorhome when it's completely loaded.
Follow the GVWR guidelines. DO NOT exceed the GVWR. Refer to the weighing
instructions on the following pages
y
WARNING: The actual weight of the vehicle, passengers, all options, liquids and your
personal cargo is important for you to know so you do not exceed the gross vehicle
weight rating of the motorhome. The volume of space available for storage may exceed
the amount of available cargo capacity. Large storage compartments have been
designed to accommodate normal camping items, such as lawn chairs, portable grill,
sporting goods (fishing poles, golf clubs), which are bulky, but not necessarily heavy.
DO NOT EXCEED YOUR GVWR - This means you must weigh your vehicle as
loaded for your normal travel to determine the actual weight. If you exceed the
GVWR, you MUST remove items from the motorhome, or drain liquids, then
re-weigh the vehicle to ensure you have achieved a safe weight. Never travel with full
gray or black holding tanks. This not only wastes gas, but depending upon the location
of the tank, can affect handling characteristics. Weight labels are posted inside a
cabinet door inside all Jayco RV's so you can make a decision before you buy about
how much cargo capacity is important for you personally.

WARNING: DO NOT overload your motorhome. Overloading either the front axle,
rear axle or behind the rear axle may result in adverse handling characteristics and
damage to the chassis. Follow the GVWR when loading your vehicle for safety.
