Section 3: In Case Of Driving Emergency; Hazard Warning Flasher; Recovery Towing - Winnebago Journey Owner's Manual

HAZARD WARNING
FLASHER
The hazard warning flasher provides addition-
al safety when the vehicle must be stopped on the
side of the roadway and presents a possible haz-
ard to other motorists. When the flasher is on, it
serves as a warning to the other drivers to ap-
proach and overtake your vehicle with caution.
WARNING
Operating the hazard warning flasher
system while moving on the highway
is illegal.
The front and rear turn signals will flash inter-
mittently when the flashers are in operation.
When it is necessary to leave the vehicle, the
flasher system will continue to operate with the
ignition key removed.
See page 2-4 for information on operating the
hazard warning flashers.
IF YOU GET A FLAT TIRE
In case of sudden tire failure, avoid heavy
brake application. Gradually decrease speed.
Hold steering wheel firmly and move slowly to a
safe, off-road place. Park on a level spot, set the
parking brake, turn off the ignition, and turn on
the hazard warning flasher system.
Emergency Road Service
Because of the size of this vehicle and the pos-
sible complications involved in tire changing,
this coach is not supplied with a spare tire. If you
experience a tire related road emergency, call the
number on your Winnebago Industries Premium
Roadside Assistance card. A tire center road
service unit will be quickly dispatched to your

location to service your tire on the spot. A quali-
fied tire center road service unit has the necessary
equipment and expertise to handle road tire emer-
gencies quickly and safely.

RECOVERY TOWING

When calling a professional towing service,
we recommend that you advise them of your
coach length and approximate front axle weight.
This will allow the towing operator to determine
the proper towing equipment to use. (This infor-
mation is found on the vehicle certification label
located to the left of the steering wheel.)
We recommend that you ask for an underlift
(wheel lift or frame lift) type towing assembly for
safe towing.
Winnebago Industries does not assume re-
sponsibility for damage incurred while towing
this vehicle.
NOTE: Consult the Freightliner chassis operat-
ing guide for any additional towing in-
structions or precautions provided by the
chassis manufacturer.
CAUTION
Do not lift on bumper. Damage will
result to front end body parts.
WARNING
Stay out from beneath the motor
home while it is suspended by the
towing assembly unless the vehicle is
adequately supported
stands. Do not allow passengers to
occupy a towed vehicle.
