• Do not attempt to tow something that is
too heavy for your chassis.
• When driving in mountainous areas,
look for and obey highway signs con-
cerning grades and curves. Your driving
experience when pulling and stopping a
towed unit on mountain roads will be very
different from what you experience on
level ground.

ciallaws in Canada vary concerning towing
requirements and limits. Check the laws in
the areas where you anticipate traveling.
Alterations to Your Motor Home
Many motor home owners like to add a
personal touch to their motor home. But
there is a difference between changing how
your motor home looks versus how it
handles or responds to driver inputs. If you
expect to make any type of alteration to
your motor home, consult a professional
who understands the correct way to do the
alteration and how the alteration will
change or affect the stability, handling,
vehicle response, and overall performance
and safety of your motor home. An
improper alteration that affects vehicle
Introduction
handling or response can cause avehicle
crash, and any improper alteration to the
electrical or LP gas systems can cause a
fire and can endanger your motor home
and its occupants. Fleetwood, your chassis
and other manufacturers stand behind the
motor home as delivered - NOT as altered
by someone else.
Warning Devices
Your motor home is equipped with warning
devices. Check them before a trip for
proper operation. A disabled warning
device cannot warn you or vehicle occu-
pants of a life-threatening danger. Keep
them working and respond to them quickly.
Examples of These Devices Include:
• Carbon Monoxide Detector/Alarm
• LPG Detector/Alarm
• Smoke Detector/Alarm
• Seat Belt Warnings
• Hazard Flashers
• Brake Warning Light
• Engine Warning Light
