Close the overhead vents or lower them before
traveling to avoid damage from wind and low
overhead clearances.
The verit 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.
Lubricate the gears and mechanism yearly with
a light, water resistant grease.
Folding Chairs
(If Equipped)
In some models, folding chairs are provided for
your convenience. Store these chairs in an
appropriate compartment when traveling to
avoid personal injury or damage.
Free-Standing Furniture
(If Equipped)
Your motor home may be equipped with free-
standing furniture. Fleetwood has designed
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.
A.
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.
A.
WARNING
Do not sit on folding chairs while the vehicle is in
motion. Personal injury may result.
MONITOR PANEL
The monitor panel allows you to conveniently
check the approximate levels in the holding
tanks, Propane tank and to check battery
condition(s).
Living With Your Motor Home
Electrical probes installed in the tanks measure
the levels at various points in the tanks.

NOTE
I
If the sensor probes mounted in the tanks get coated
with grease, the monitor panel may indicate falsely or
not at all. Avoid pouring grease, oils or similar sub-
stances down drains or the toilet. If this is unavoid-
able, the holding tank(s) should be washed out with
a
soapy water solution. See your dealer for additional
information.
10 check tank levels:
Press PROPANE, FRESH WATER, GRAY
or BLACK TANK switches.
The E or empty indicator light will always
be lit when the rocker or touch switches are
depressed. If the tank is full, all lights will be
on. Lights are sequential, and indicate levels
in approximately 1/3 or 1/4-tank increments
depending on monitor or panel design. It the
tank selected is approximately 112-full, for
example, lights E, 1/4 and 1/2 will be on.
Erroneous tank level indications can be
caused by:
a. Water with low mineral content. The level
is measured by a very low level electrical
signal traveling through the liquid. Some
water may not conduct the signal properly.
This condition may be infrequent, but can
exist. Check the panel reading when the
fresh water tank is filled.
b. Material trapped on the holding tank
probes may give a full reading when the
tank is actually empty.
10 check the battery charge:
1. Shut off all charging sources, engine, gen-
erator, and disconnect the 120-volt power
cord to turn off the converter.
2. Press BATTERY rocker switch on the panel.
3. Turn on a light or any 12-volt appliance.
The battery must be checked with a load.
4. Read battery condition on the indicator.
