Leveling The Motorhome; Refueling - Regency XALTA Owner's Manual

VEHICLE OPERATION

LEVELING THE MOTORHOME

Level the motorhome frame (without auto-level) before
using any of the appliances. The refrigerator is especially
sensitive and must be level to function properly. Spend
the necessary time to level your motorhome to ensure
maximum enjoyment and reliability of your appliances.
Select the area to park your vehicle as follows:
•
Inspect the area you want to park your motorhome.
Select an area that has a firm, prepared surface. Most
campgrounds provide this type of parking area for
motorhomes.
•
Select an area that is level, or as close to level, as
possible.
•
Use a carpenter's level on the floor to determine the
locations where it is necessary to place blocks in order
to level the motorhome.
•
Level from side to side first, then from front to back.
To raise one side of the motorhome, place planks in
front of the low side tire, and drive the motorhome
forward until the tires are resting on top of the planks.
CAUTION
Exercise care and caution when parking and leveling
your motorhome. Make sure everyone, especially
children, are clear of the motorhome until leveling is
complete and the motorhome is stable.
REFUELING THE VEHICLE CHASSIS
Modern fuel systems may allow pressure to build up
in the fuel tank during hot weather.
Under certain conditions, small amounts of fuel may
spray from the fuel filler tube when the fuel cap is
removed quickly, creating a potential hazard.
Make sure all appliances are shut off before refueling.
Do not smoke when refueling.
Keep flames, sparks, and smoking materials away from
fuel or flammable fumes.
Removing the Fuel Cap
The fuel tank filler cap is located behind a flap adjacent to
the driver's door. Slowly remove the fuel cap to release
any built-up pressure. If you hear a hissing sound, wait for
hissing to stop before fully removing the cap.
Filling the Tank
Do NOT overfill the fuel tank. Fill only until the automatic
shut-off valve on the fuel nozzle stops the flow of fuel.
This allows for expansion of the fuel and vapor as the fuel
warms and expands in the fuel tank.
Fuel Tank Capacity

Information Bag for details.
