•
Let the vehicle coast to a stop, gently steering
to a safe stopping place off the traffic lanes of
the road. Do not worry about damaging the
tire or wheel rim by driving on it. A tire or
wheel replacement is cheaper than damaging
the vehicle or injuring yourself.
•
When you have come to a stop, activate your
hazard flashers to warn other motorists, then
exit the vehicle carefully.
•
Set out flares or other warning devices.
Check your tires for proper inflation before
each trip and at least once a month with an
accurate tire gauge.
Spare Tire Storage
-If Equipped
If your coach is supplied with a spare tire, it
will be located underneath the bed with access to
the exterior of the coach.
Recovery Towing
When calling a professional towing service,
we recommend that you advise them of your
coach length and approximate front axle weight
listed on your Vehicle Certification Label. This
will allow the towing operator to determine the
proper towing equipment to use.
We recommend that you ask for an underlift
(wheel lift or frame lift) type towing assembly for
safe towing.

SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Stay out from beneath the motor home
while it is suspended by the towing
assembly. Do not allow passengers to
occupy a towed vehicle. Death or serious
injury can result.
JUMP STARTING
If your coach will not start from the chassis
battery, try using the battery boost switch to
divert power from the house batteries to the
starter. (See either "Battery Boost Switch" or
"Aux Start Switch").
If you wish to try jump starting the engine
using another vehicle or booster system, see your
chassis manual for connecting jumper cables to
the automotive electrical system.
NOTICE
Do not attempt to push start this vehicle.
Damage to the transmission or other
parts of the vehicle will occur.
ENGINE OVERHEAT
If you see or hear steam escaping from the
engine compartment or have any other reason to
suspect an extreme engine overheating condition,
pull the vehicle over to the roadside as soon as it
is safe to do so, stop the engine, and get all
passengers out of the vehicle.
