SAFETY CHECK LIST

Your Airstream motorhome should be given a thorough safety check before a trip. Regular use of the
following list will provide safe operation of your motorhome and will help you spot any malfunctioning
equipment and correct the problem as soon as possible. The list is to help you and may not be all-inclusive.
Failure to heed the following items may cause damage to the vehicle or personal injury.

EXTERIOR CHECK LIST (BEFORE ENTERING VEHICLE)

1. Check condition of tires for proper inflation.
2. Turn off LPG valve on LPG tank.
3. Check that sewer connections, city water hookup, TV cable, and all exterior components are
unhooked and properly stowed away.
4. Check that all external compartments and filler openings are properly closed and/or locked.
5. Check that items stored on exterior of vehicle are securely tied down.

INTERIOR CHECK LIST (BEFORE DRIVING OFF)

1. It is important that the main door and cab door be completely closed and locked during travel. As
an added precaution we recommend the dead bolt also be locked on the main door.
2. Turn off living area water pump.
3. Check that refrigerator door is fastened.
4. Check that nothing heavy is stored in overhead or high cabinets, which could fall out and cause
injury. Heavy items should be stored in low cabinets.
5. Stow folding and pedestal tables.

9. Check that any internal stowage is securely held in place
10. Check that lights and switches are set in positions safe for travel.
11. Adjust the driver's seat so that you can easily reach and operate all controls. Make sure seat is
locked in position. Do not adjust driver's seat swivel or fore and aft mechanism while vehicle is
