safe towing.
Winnebago Industries does not assume re-
sponsibility for damage incurred while towing
this vehicle.

any additional towing instructions or
precautions provided by the chassis

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.

JUMP STARTING

If your coach will not start from the automo-
tive batteries, try using the battery/boost switch
to divert power from the coach batteries to the
starter. (See Battery Boost Switch in Section 5).
If you wish to try jump starting the engine using
another vehicle or booster system, see your chas-
sis owner's manual for connecting jumper cables
to the automotive electrical system.

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 passen-
gers out of the vehicle.
WARNING
Operating a vehicle under a severe
overheating condition can result in
damage to the vehicle and may result
in personal injury.
For information on what to do in case of over-
heating, consult your chassis operating guide.
