Appliances
the registers or the return air to the furnace.
Storage under cabinets should be done carefully
so as to not clUsh or damage any furnace ducting.
Smoke and fumes created as a result of buming
off manufacturing compounds are sometimes
present the first time the fumace is used. This is
normal; however, when you light the furnace the
first time, open all windows and doors until the
residues are completely bumed off.
Always follow the appliance manufacturer's
lighting and operating instructions.
If the furnace does not keep you comfortably
warm, NEVER use the range, oven or a catalytic
heater for supplementary heat - even with a
vent or window open.
Combustion air for the furnace comes from out-
side the RV. The products of combustion from
the furnace (carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide
and other gases) are returned to the outside air.

WARNING
Portable fuel-burning appliances are not safe for heat-
ing inside the motor home. Asphyxiation or carbon
monoxide poisoning can occur.
RANGE
The Propane oven and burners are operated with
Propane. The basic operation is the same as the
range in your home.
This warning label has been located in the cook-
ing area to remind you to provide an adequate
supply of fresh air for combustion. Unlike
homes, the amount of oxygen supply is limited
due to the size of the recreation vehicle, and
proper ventilation when using the cooking appli-
ance(s) avoids danger of asphyxiation. It is
especially important that cooking appliances not
be used for comfort heating as the danger of
asphyxiation is greater when the appliance is
use for long periods of time. Refer to the
Lighting Propane Appliances section, in the
Propane System chapter of this manual.
10-2
When you use the range oven for cooking or
baking, always open a vent or window to provide
ventilation. Never operate the range or oven
when you are sleeping or if your alertness is
impaired in any way.
A.
WARNING
It is not safe to use cooking appliances for comfort
heating. Cooking appliances need fresh air for safe
operation.
Before operation:
1. Open overhead vent or turn on exhaust fan.
2. Open window.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN DEATH
OR SERIOUS INJURY.
A.
WARNING
Do not use open flames to warm the living area.
Propane combustion consumes the oxygen inside the
motor home.
RANGE EXHAUST HOOD
The exhaust hood allows vapors and cooking
odors to escape, and may provide a vent for the
galley area. Switches for the fan and light are
located either on the range hood or the front of the
microwave. The hood has grease flIter screen(s)
which require periodic cleaning. To clean, remove
the screens and wash in soapy water. Rinse with
water and let the screens drain dry.
If needed, replace the light bulb with an equiva-
lent type found on the bulb or listed in the appli-
ance owner's manual.
AIR CONDITIONER(S)
(If Equipped)
The roof-mounted air conditioner(s) can operate
only when the motor home is connected to 120-
volt AC power from either a public utility or the
generator. Be sure the air conditioner circuit
breaker is ON.
Each return air duct is equipped with a flIter.
Check these filters at regular intervals for accu-
muations
of dust that could restrict air flow.
