Carbon Monoxide Detector
Your motor home is equipped with a carbon monoxide
(CO) detector. Usually located in the main sleeping
area, it is designed to alert you to the presence of CO
gas. Test the CO detector after the motor home has
been in storage, before each trip, and at least once a
week during use. Replace the sensor and battery when
necessary. Do not replace the ballery without replacing
the sensor. Sensors may be obtained through your
Fleetwood dealer. Please refer to the operating instruc-
tions included in your Owner's Information Package.

EMERGENCY TOWING
The only safe and approved towing methods are either
an under reach wheel lift device, as installed on a mini-
mum 3-ton tow truck chassis, or a flat bed trailer. Most
tow truck operators willing and able to tow motor homes
will be familiar with these devices. Be prepared to give
the tow truck operator at least the following information
when you call:
Length and height of motor home
Chassis manufacturer
Gross vehicle weight rating
CAUTION
Do not tow the motor home from the rear.
Towing from the rear will cause serious
overloading of the front tires and suspen-
sion, possibly resulting in tire or front sus-
pension failure. The rear frame extensions
are not designed to withstand the load
imposed by lifting from the rear.
The vehicle must be towed from the front, either on the
rear wheels (if operational) or on a heavy duty dolly, or
transported on a flat bed trailer. Consult your chassis
'operator's manual. '
To prepare your motor home for towing:
1. Secure any loose or protruding parts of the
disabled vehicle.
2. Secure any heavy, loose items in the interior.
3. Turn off LP gas appliances and the LP gas tank
valve.
4. Do not allow any person to ride in the towed
vehicle.
