    You can also visit www.emberrv.com for general weights and measures for your specific floorplan. Pre-Trip Preparation Before leaving on your first trip with your new Ember Recreational Vehicle, read the information in this manual very carefully. After reading through the manual, run through the following checklist at least once.
  • Page 17: Exterior

    EXTERIOR Close the valves on the LP bottles. Empty gray/black holding tanks. Inspect all exterior baggage doors and lockers to ensure they are locked for travel. Inspect tires and check the pressures. Check the wheel lug nuts. Inspect the awning(s) to ensure they are properly retracted and secured. Turn the battery disconnect on.
  • Page 18: Hitching

    HITCHING Ember RVs come equipped standard with a 2 5/16 -inch diameter hitch ball mounted in a variable height coupler referred to as a VersaCoupler Hitching System. Figure 1 demonstrates how to change coupler height. CHANGING VERSACOUPLER HEIGHT Use of any other sized hitch ball will create an extremely dangerous condition that can result in separation of the coupler and ball, and/or hitch ball failure.
  • Page 19: 7-Way Connector

    7-WAY CONNECTOR Your trailer is equipped with a 7-way connector which synchronizes the lights of your tow vehicle and trailer and can connect their respective braking systems. Each wire is color coded to identify the system it powers: White: Ground Green: Running Lights Brown: Right Turn Signal •...
  • Page 20: Sway Control And Weight Distribution Hitch

    These distribute the tongue weight of the trailer further away from the rear and can help in vehicle handling. Each towing situation is different due to the tow vehicle and trailer. Ember suggests speaking with your dealer prior to choosing a system.
  • Page 21: Loading

    Loading The process of safely and properly loading your trailer should become easier with practice and experience. Please first get familiar with and understand the following terms related to your trailer’s weight, carrying capacity, and rating: GVWR (GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING) The maximum permissible weight of the fully-loaded RV.
  • Page 22: Cargo Capacities

    OR REARRANGE CARGO (EQUIPMENT, PERSONAL BELONGINGS, WATER, ETC.) UNTIL THE AXLE WEIGHT NO LONGER EXCEEDS THE GAWR BEFORE OPERATING THE RV. NOT OPERATING YOUR RV WITHIN THE DESIGNED WEIGHT RATINGS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR RECREATIONAL VEHICLE WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY OF EMBER’S WARRANTIES.
  • Page 23: Towing

    We recommend that you practice towing your Ember RV in an empty parking lot before going on your first camping trip. This initial trial is fun, great practice, and will help you get accustomed to and familiar with your Ember RV’s systems and operation.
  • Page 24: Tire Pressure

    TIRE PRESSURE You are responsible for maintaining proper tire pressure in the tires of your trailer and tow vehicle. Always check your tire pressure and refer to the “Tires” discussion herein before traveling. BRAKES You are responsible for inspecting and maintaining both your trailer and tow vehicle brakes before towing.
  • Page 25: Sway And Fishtailing

    SWAY AND FISHTAILING Excessive sway or fishtailing of your trailer can lead to the rollover of the trailer and tow vehicle, and thus, serious injury or death. The tendency for the vehicle to sway increases with speed. Thus, reduce speed as needed and in inclement or harsh weather conditions (i.e., high winds, rainstorms, slippery roads, etc.).
  • Page 26: Sharp Turns

    SHARP TURNS Minimize the suddenness of sharp turns by anticipating them, slowing down well in advance of them, and taking them at low, substantially reduced speeds. STEEP AND LONG GRADES Like sharp turns, be sure to anticipate steep grades. Downshift into a lower gear or range in advance to assist your braking on a descent and to add power on a climb.
  • Page 27: Tires

    However, should a situation arise and you find yourself in need of roadside assistance, the purchase of your Ember RV includes access to the Tredit Advantage 4-Year Roadside Assistance. They provide nationwide 24/7, on-demand assistance to RVers who require crucial services to help them get back up and running to continue their travels.
  • Page 28: Tire Tread

    Maximum load rating is the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that each tire can carry. Maximum permissible inflation pressure is the greatest amount of air pressure that should be put in the tire under normal driving conditions. Maximum load single kg (lbs) at kPa (psi) cold indicates the maximum load and tire pressure when the tire is used as a single in unactive state.
  • Page 29: Wheel Nut Torque

    WHEEL NUT TORQUE Proper wheel nut torque is essential to safe towing. The tires used on your Ember RV are rated for Light Truck Duty. However, their usage is much different than a truck. These are not used to steer and are subjected to high side load stress when making tight turns around corners.
  • Page 30: Tire Safety Checklist

    Stage 3: Increase your torque wrench setting to the 3rd stage value on the Wheel Nut Torque Table. Begin with the appropriate bolt for your wheel and apply torque to all wheel nuts following the star pattern. If the wheel was replaced, check the torque again at every 50 miles for the first 500 miles and prior to each trip thereafter.

    FAILURE TO FOLLOWING THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH: • ONLY USE THE JACK TO GET THE TRAILER OFF THE GROUND - NEVER TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. • ALWAYS USE JACK STANDS WHEN YOU WORK BENEATH YOUR TRAILER. •...
  • Page 32: Hook Ups

    Hook Ups After you have safely leveled and stabilized your RV, you may continue with set-up. If you plan to use campsite hook ups, read through the following: Connect the shore-line cord to an external 120V 30 to 50-amp (depending on needs) outlet.
  • Page 33: External Equipment And Systems

    External Equipment and Systems EUROPEAN WINDOWS Most Ember RVs come with European-style, dual-pane acrylic windows. These windows are different from windows normally found in recreational vehicles made in North America. There are two styles of windows, ones with arms that click into three open positions and ones with tension knobs that hold it in the open position.
  • Page 34: Cleaning

    • Use a high-pressure washer for cleaning your windows. INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION One of the key features of your Ember RV is the Curt Independent Suspension. This suspension is designed to handle the unique stress, strain, and vibration that comes with rough terrain.
  • Page 35 The camber and alignment of your suspension are key contributors to ride quality. If you feel that your trailer is not towing to your satisfaction or if you experience excessive tire wear, contact your dealer for service. After extensive use, it is possible for your suspension to develop a squeak or a scraping sound while it is in motion.
  • Page 36: Front Electric Flat Jack

    INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION ARM PIVOTS FRONT ELECTRIC FLAT JACK Most Ember RVs come equipped with an electric Gate Defender front jack. The extend-retract switch is located on the road-side compartment of the Gear Box. Review the Gate Defender’s Owner’s Manual for additional GATE DEFENDER information on operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
  • Page 37 To regain function in the event of a “buried” jack: Remove as much weight as possible from the front of the coach and attempt to extend the Gate Defender. If this does not correct the problem proceed to step 2. Elevate the front of the coach so that the foot pad is just clear of the ground.
  • Page 38: Stabilizers

    GEAR BOX OWNER’S MANUAL One of the unique features of your Ember RV is the aluminum LP gas and battery compartment mounted on the A-Frame.

    SMART SYSTEM ™ Your Ember may be equipped with an EmberLink Smart System. The control panel for the smart system is located at the entrance to the coach. The panel and the systems it controls are powered by the DC electrical system.
  • Page 60: Propane System

    Propane System OVERVIEW The liquid propane (LP) gas system in your Ember RV provides the fuel for cooking, heating, and hot water only and is plumbed to the indoor stovetop, the outdoor griddle, and the Truma Combi Eco Plus. LP is a clean, efficient, and safe form of energy when proper handling and safety precautions are observed.
  • Page 61: Other Cold Weather Factors

    The source of the moisture is varied. It can occur at the refinery or gas bulk plant, in the cars used to transport the gas, or even within your own LP tanks. Moisture in an LP tank can occur when a tank service valve is left open, allowing moist air to enter, and become trapped. A two-stage regulator helps reduce the possibility of freezing up because of its larger orifice size and that heat is being transferred through the walls of two regulators instead on only one.
  • Page 62: Lp Pigtail

    LP PIGTAIL The LP pigtail is a hose used to connect to the regulator on the tank through which the LP fuel flows. This safety feature is generally recognized by the large green nut that attaches to the outside of the valve on the regulator. It limits excessive gas flow and prevents gas from flowing unless the connection is tight.
