Cap seal (if applicable) or replace the
sealant if you notice any cracks, gaps,
lifting, looseness, peeling, shrinkage,
voids or any sign of physical deterioration.
Complete repairs immediately to prevent
damage to your RV.
Always use the same type of sealant
originally used to build your RV. Consult
with your RV dealer for the proper
sealant(s) to use on your RV.
If you notice water inside the unit,
immediately have the RV dealership check
for the source of the leak. Failure to correct
the leak may result in serious damage to
your RV. This damage will not be covered
under the Towable Limited Warranty.
Although the following diagrams may not
accurately reflect the exact model of your RV,

Prior to Storage

If storing for the winter, be sure the RV is
winterized (refer to Sec. 5 Plumbing System,
Winterizing the plumbing system).
– Check your roof and other surfaces to
ensure there is no damage and potential
leakage that might otherwise go unnoticed
until it is too late.
– Close all windows and roof vents.
– Close the propane cylinder valve(s). If your
cylinders do not already have a cover,
purchase at least a vinyl propane cylinder
cover and make sure the regulator is
covered.
– Cover all external outlets, such as furnace,
exhaust, etc. to prevent mice or other
rodents from entering.
– If applicable, cover the roof air conditioner.
– Disconnect 120-volt AC power to the RV.
– Do not use the stabilizing jacks during
storage.
– Drain all water lines.
– If applicable, drain and flush all holding
tanks (fresh water, gray water, black water
and/or hot water tanks).
– Inspect and reseal as needed.
– Remove all batteries from the RV and store
in a place where they won't freeze. Batteries
that have been frozen will never hold a
proper charge.
– Remove all perishable items from the
interior. If storing during the winter months,
include any items that are susceptible to
freezing.
– Store your RV indoors, under a roof or
purchase a tarp to cover your RV during
storage. Make sure you invest in a good tarp
that can "breathe.
– Thoroughly wash the interior and the
exterior of your RV.
– To prevent weather checking and other UV
damage, cover tires that are exposed to
sunlight.
– Turn all cushions on edge to prevent the
moisture/mildew buildup during storage.
