Your motor home is equipped with a carbon monoxide (CO)
detector. It is usually located in the main sleeping area.
If the indicator sounds, it is an indication that carbon
monoxide gas is present. This may occur while idling in high
traffic concentrations where other vehicles as well as your
motor home are contributing to the carbon monoxide level in
the surrounding air. Sounding of the alarm does not indicate
a faulty alarm. The detector is doing its job of warning you
of potentially high concentrations of carbon monoxide. See
the section on Carbon Monoxide in this manual.
Test the CO detector after the motor home has been in
storage, before each trip, and at least once a week during
use. Please refer to the operating instructions included in
your Owner's Information Package.
Consult your Chassis Operator's Manual for information on
safe and approved towing procedures. Most tow truck
operators willing and able to tow motor homes will be
familiar with these procedures. 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
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.
