Living With Your Motor Home
• Whenever possible, place heavy articles in
storage compartments which are low and in
the best location for weight distribution.
Pack articles carefully in the storage
compartments to minimize shifting. If nec-
essary, use straps to prevent movement.
• Be sure liquid containers are capped and
cannot tip or spill.
• Secure all glass containers and dishes
before traveling.
• Exterior storage compartments may not be
watertight in all conditions. Carry any arti-
cles which could be damaged by water
inside the motor home.
A.
WARNING
Do not store flammable, volatile liquids or hazardous
chemicals inside the motor home or in outside stor-
age compartments. Toxic fumes from these liquids or
chemicals may enter the interior of the motor home.
Interior Storage
The closets and cabinets have catches along one
edge of the door. Pull on the cabinet door handle
to open. Overhead doors have supports to hold
them open. Drawers rest in notches when they
are closed. To open drawers, lift up slightly, then
pull open.
Closets may be equipped with 12-volt lights that
turn ON when the closet door is opened. Be sure
the light goes OFF when the closet door is
closed-your battery will be discharged if it
stays ON. If the light stays on when the door is
closed, the door switch requires adjustment.
The same loading considerations apply to inte-
rior storage areas as to exterior. Consult the
Motor Home Loading section in the On The
Road
chapter.
SLIDE-OUT ROOMS
(If Equipped)
Your new motor home may be equipped with an
optional slide-out room. The slide-out room(s)
are designed to provide additional living space.
06-4
A detailed operating and maintenance guide is
included in your Owner's Information Package.
Read all instructions for these systems carefully
before operating the slide-outs.
In some installations it may be necessary to
slide the driver's seat to the full forward position
and place the seat back in the full upright posi-
tion prior to moving the slide-out room in or out
to prevent the room from striking or rubbing
against the seat back.
• Always exercise caution when operating
the slide-out room.
• Always be certain that there is plenty of
clearance for your room to safely extend to
the full outward position.
• Remove any other potential obstructions to
room movement.
For operation of the slide-out room the follow-
ing is required:
• Park the RV and level it for stationary use.
• Ignition on (engine running)
• Transmission in park
• Parking brake engaged
• Slide-out key or switch activated
