WARNING

opening or closing the cover.

WARNING
When installing the engine cover, be sure the cover
is fully seated on the gasket seal and secured by the
clamps. Do not allow insulation, carpeting, or other
material to interrupt the seal between the cover and
the engine compartment. If the engine cover is not
installed correctly, engine exhaust gases could leak
into the passenger compartment creating a safety
hazard. If the engine must be run with the engine
cover off for maintenance purposes, be sure the
vehicle interior is adequately ventilated.

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINE

While many RV owners use their RV for week-
end and vacation travel, others may use their RV
full-time. Full-time use of an RV can consider-
ably affect its condition, as well as maintenance
requirements. As long as you are not full-timing
or traveling under severe climate conditions, the
normal maintenance guidelines that are outlined
in your Fleetwood Owner's Manual will ensure
your RV will provide you many years of enjoy-
able use. Severe climates, either hot or cold, can
affect your seals, sealants, plumbing, Propane
system, and cause internal condensation issues.
Full-timing can cause extra wear and tear to your
RV simply from continuous usage and/or exten-
sive miles driven. If you are a full-timer or using
your RV in severe climate conditions, follow
the "full-timer/severe climate" scheduled main-
tenance program, as outlined in your Fleetwood
Owner's Manual. By following this maintenance
schedule, you should be able to prolong the life
and enjoy your RV for many years to come.
For your convenience, a maintenance guideline
is on the following page. Options and acces-
sories usually have their own owner/user manu-
als that often contain maintenance instructions.
Consult these manuals as required. Modify any
suggested maintenance schedule as use condi-
tions or performance requires.
