FIN

NUMbER) -
This is the nnmber that
identifies your motor home as a Fleetwood product. Use this
number when ordering parts or requesting warranty service
for your motor home.
GAWR (GRosS AxLE WEiqhT RATiNq) -
The maximum allowable
weight a specific axle and brake system is designed to carry.
Each axle has its own GAWR. When you add the GAWRs,
they will not necessarily add up to the GVWR. The GAWR is
also shown on the Federal certification tag posted on the left
interior sidewall near the driver's station.
GCWR (GROSS COMbiNEd WEiqhT RATiNq) -
The maximum
allowable combined weight of the fully equipped and loaded
motor home (including passengers, all cargo, fluids, etc.) plus
the weight of any fully loaded towed load (such as a trailer,
boat, or automobile). The Gross Combined Weight Rating
(GCWR) is listed on the caITying capacity tag.
If
the towed
unit is not eqnipped with brakes that are actuated with
the motor home brakes, this number may be lower. The
allowable weight of a non-brake eq\lipped towed uniUs
listed in the Chassis Operator's Manual. Exceeding the
GCWR will cause damage to your motor, home drivetrai,n or
chassis, unstable driving and handling characteristics, and
will reduce your warranty protection.
GEAR PRESElECTioN -
The selection of a lower gear to match the dri-
ving conditions you encounter or expect to encounter.
Preselection will give you better control on slick or icy roads
and on downgrades. Downshifting to lower gears increases
engine braking. The selection of a lower gear often prevents
cycling between a gear and the next higher gear on a series of
short up-and-down hills.
