All heat discharges, registers and return air
grills must be free and clear of obstructions.
This includes all closeable registers that are
intended to reduce airflow, not shut it off

The 12-volt DC attic fan (or powered roof
vent) allows fresh air to circulate through the
RV.
Do not leave the attic fan open when the RV
is stored or unattended for long periods. High
winds,
other
unusual
obstructions may prevent the dome from
closing; the resulting leakage could cause
non-warrantable damage.

There are may be up to two 12-volt DC
thermostats in your RV. Use the controls to
set the temperature to your comfort setting.

Your RV has a roof mounted air conditioning
system that is controlled by a thermostat.
Cooled air enters the RV through the
adjustable "chill grill." Make sure you have
sufficient power available before operating the
air conditioner. Do not operate the air
conditioner without the return air filter.
Operating the system without the filter allows
the lint and dirt that is normally stopped by the
filter to accumulate on the cooling coil of the
air conditioner. This also will lead to a loss of
air volume, possible equipment damage and
an expensive cleaning process.
A special foam gasket is placed between the
roof material and the subframe of the air
conditioner to guard against water leakage.
The air conditioner is subjected to wind
pressures along with motor vibration during
normal operation. Inspect the mounting bolts
for tightness to ensure there is no leakage or
looseness at least annually. Re-tighten bolts
when they are loose. DO NOT over tighten
these bolts as it may damage this gasket. The
air conditioner gasket is a wearable part that

The
furnace
should
periodically (monthly during the heating
season) for presence of soot on the vent.
Soot is formed whenever combustion is
incomplete. This is a visual warning that
the furnace is operating in an unsafe
manner. If soot is observed on the vent,
immediately shut the furnace OFF and
contact
a
qualified
Operating the furnace under this condition
could lead to serious property damage,
personal injury or loss of life.
To ensure your personal safety, do not
obstruct or alter the furnace in any manner.
Do not install screens over the vent for any
reason. Screens will become restricted and
cause unsafe furnace operation. For your
safety, only OEM factory authorized parts
are to be used on your furnace.
The RV furnace installed in the RV is
controlled by a thermostat. The furnace
requires both 12-volt power and propane gas
for full operation. Make sure you have
sufficient power available before operating
your furnace If you have any questions
contact your dealer or Jayco Customer
Service.
A qualified RV technician should perform all
furnace maintenance at least once a year
(more often depending on furnace usage).
Never attempt to repair the furnace yourself.
