Living With Your Motor Home
ENTRY AND SCREEN DOORS
The main entry door uses a latching system sim-
ilar to that used in automobiles. It has a second-
ary latch as well as a primary latch. When clos-
ing the door, be sure to close it firmly to engage
the primary latch. This will ensure that the door
is fully closed. When traveling, always lock
the deadbolt.
The screen door may be separated from the
main entry door by depressing the catch or
releasing the magnet.
WARNING
!
Do not operate the hydraulic or electric stepwell cover
while anyone is positioned in the stepwell or standing
on the stepwell cover. A person standing on the step-
well cover or in the stepwell could lose their balance
and fall if the stepwell cover is operated.
WARNING
!
In the event of a fire or other life threatening emer-
gency do not attempt to retract the entry step cover if
it is in the out position. Use what ever method nec-
essary to safely exit the motor home that will not
result to injury to yourself or others.
WARNING
!
Feet, legs, hands, and other body parts could be
pinched or injured during stepwell cover operation.
Keep clear of the stepwell cover during operation.
PATIO AWNING
(If Equipped)
An operating and maintenance guide for your
awning is included in your Owner's
Information Package. It contains complete
instructions for opening and closing the
awning, as well as maintenance and care
instructions.
Any awning can collect debris and puddle
water. After it has rained or snowed you should
cautiously retract your awning and/or slide out
box. If necessary occasionally stop the retrac-
tion to allow water to run off. A broom may be
05-2
used to assist with water, snow or debris
removal.
WINDOWS
Windows in your motor home are either slider
or torque pane type. Open slider windows by
rotating the locking lever and sliding the win-
dow. Open and adjust torque windows by turn-
ing the knob or crank located at the bottom of
the window frame.
On your ventilating windows, water is trapped
by the frame. During a heavy downpour or
washing, water may be seen in the lower portion
of the frame. The sloping sill and weep slots
allow the water to drain to the outside. These
weep slots must be kept clean and free of debris
to drain properly. If left unattended to and the
drains become clogged the window track may
fill and over flow with water creating the illu-
sion the window is leaking.
If water collects in the bottom channel and
overflows, check the weep slots for debris and
obstructions and clean as necessary.
Damage or failure resulting from the application
of after-market window tinting is the owner's
responsibility.
Emergency Exit Window(s)
WARNING
!
Using the emergency exit window during some form
of a life threatening emergency it should be noted that
the window exit is very high off the ground. Care
must be used to avoid injury when exiting through the
exit window.
NOTE
Screens are not removable for cleaning. They may
be pushed out of their frames if the window must be
used for emergency exit. In this case, the screens
will be destroyed and will probably have to be
replaced.
