time.
To aide in dissipation, ventilate the RV by opening all windows and circulate the
air with a fan. The following label is located inside the RV near the entry door.

Proper care should be taken when planning to use your RV in cold weather.

weather. When used in freezing or below freezing temperatures, the following
precautions need to be taken:

systems to avoid freezing problems (see Winterizing the Plumbing
System).
□ Propane and sufficient power is needed for protection from possible freeze-
ups on the propane regulator.

□ During cool weather usage, ventilation or the addition of a dehumidifier may
be required to reduce condensation (see Condensation).

vents, etc., for frozen moisture before operating to avoid damage to parts.
