Do not use Connected RV and Smart RV Control
services and functions when driving or when the
RV is otherwise in motion. Serious damage to the
RV or property or serious injury to yourself or
others may occur as such systems or functions
may distract your attention from the road and/or
may operate features of the RV which are intended
for use only when in a stationary position
Overnight Stop
Airstream owners have parked virtually in every place
imaginable, from filling stations to farmlands. In time,
you'll develop a knack for spying wonderful little
roadside locations by turning off the main highway and
exploring�
There are many modern parks, including State, County,
and Federal parks, with good facilities where you
might obtain hookups of electrical, water, and sewer
connections� Directories are published which describe
in detail these parks and tell what is available in the
way of services and hookups�
On overnight or weekend trips, chances are you will
not use up the capacity of the sewage holding tank,
deplete the water supply, or run down the batteries that
supply the 12-volt current�
On a longer trip, when you have stayed where sewer
connections and utility hookups were not available, it
will be necessary for you to stop from time to time to
dispose of the waste in the holding tank and replenish
the water supply� Many truck stops and gas stations,
chain and individually owned, have installed sanitary
dumping stations for just this purpose� Booklets are
available that list these dumping stations�
When stopping for the night, your Airstream is built
to be safely parked in any spot that is relatively level
and where the ground is firm. Your facilities are with
you� You are self-contained� Unless the tow vehicle
is needed for transportation, it is not necessary to
unhitch�
At each campsite, make sure you have not parked
in such a manner as to block the operation of the
escape window by being too close to trees, fences,
or other impediments. Scenic views are one reason
for traveling, but don't park so the beautiful lake or
steep cliff is just outside your escape window.
