retention hardware which will secure any loose
furniture during travel. Always secure any furni-
ture or loose articles before moving the motor
home. Failure to do so could result in damage to
your furniture and motor home, as well as result
in personal injury or death in the event of an
accident or emergency maneuver.

WARNING
Loose furniture must be secured before travel. Failure
to do so may result in injury or death in the event of
an accident or emergency maneuver.

Folding Doors/Privacy Curtain

Dividers

The dividers allow you to separate areas in the
motor home. They glide on nylon rollers. They
are held closed by a catch. When the dividers are
open for traveling, be sure to attach the hold back
latch to keep them from sliding back and forth.

Interior Lighting

Both decorative and 'utility' style 12-volt light-
ing fixtures may be used in your motor home.
Utility style fixtures may be either single or
dual. A slide switch selects either single or dual
brightness. For your convenience, some lights
are operated from wall switches. Clean the
lenses with soapy water.
!
CAUTION
Some of the lighting fixtures may be equipped with
halogen bulbs. The bulbs and fixtures may get very
hot when they are on. Do not touch these lighting fix-
tures when they are on. Allow them to cool before
attempting to replace a bulb or to clean. Replace all
light bulbs with the same type and wattage as origi-
nally installed or as indicated on the fixture.

Overhead Vents

Overhead vents may be located in the galley and
bathroom areas for fresh air circulation and
exhausting heat, odors and water vapor.
Turn the crank in the center of the overhead vent
to open and adjust. Some vents may also be
equipped with a 12-volt fan. A switch controls
fan operation. Be sure to turn the fan OFF
before closing the vent. Some vents may be
connected to a wall switch.
Close the overhead vents or lower them before
traveling to avoid damage from wind and low
overhead clearances.
The vent may be cleaned from the top of the
motor home. Use soapy water on the vent cover.
The screens may be vacuumed or lightly brushed
to remove accumulation of leaves or other debris.
