CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION TO RV OWNERSHIP
WELCOME
Thank you for purchasing your Jayco Recreation Vehicle and welcome to the world of
recreation vehicle travel. Your purchase of a Jayco RV allows you to enter this unique
world of camping and leisure in a grand style. Your Jayco RV has been designed and
engineered to offer you many comforts of home that will make your camping
experience as enjoyable as possible. Jayco recreation vehicles are designed, con-
structed and intended to be used as temporary living quarters for recreation,
camping and travel uses, all as defined in the bylaws of the Recreation Vehicle
Industry Association. Our recreation vehicles are not intended for the hauling of
cargo.
This owner's manual was prepared to assist you in understanding the proper use and
operation of various containment systems, servicing and maintenance of component
parts, and explanation of your warranty protection. If you are a newcomer to RV travel,
you will especially appreciate the suggestions and "shop talk" information to be found
throughout this manual to help you obtain the most pleasure from the use of your vehicle.
The information in this manual reflects the most current available to us at the time of
publication. If you find the components in your recreation vehicle vary significantly from
what is described in this manual, please disregard that section and follow the instructions
provided by that particular component manufacturer. You should carefully read and
understand this owner's manual which is a supplement to various other instructions
supplied by the manufacturers of separately warranted products.
Keep this owner's manual in your recreation vehicle for handy reference. Get to know
your new vehicle and how it operates. You should carefully read and understand these
instructions and information supplied by manufacturers of separately warranted prod-
ucts, since they contain important operating, safety, and maintenance instructions. If you
have questions that are not adequately answered by this manual or other booklets, consult
your dealer. If he cannot satisfactorily answer your questions, he will call our staff or
refer you to us for help.
Every effort has been made to provide you with a safe, dependable product. Your vehicle
complies with applicable requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, State
Regulations, Canadian Standards Associations (CSA) where applicable, and complies
with requirements of ANSI Standard A119.2, the nationally recognized "Standard For
Recreation Vehicles – Installation of Plumbing, Heating and Electrical Systems." The
Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) and Canadian Standards Association
(CSA) periodically inspect our production line and assist us in maintaining strict compli-
ance with installation and safety standards for those systems. Your follow-up with
periodic safety inspections and a program of preventive maintenance is important
for the continuation of safe and trouble-free operation.
Camping is a great way to relax and enjoy the outdoors with your friends and family.
Please remember to tread lightly on our beautiful land and leave only your footprints so
that others may enjoy nature as much as you did.
