RANGE EXHAUST HOOD
The exhaust hood allows vapors and cooking odors
to escape, and provides a vent for the galley area.
Switches for the fan and light are located on the front
of the hood. The hood has a grease filter screen which
requires periodic cleaning. To clean, remove the screen
and wash in soapy water. Rinse with water and let
the screen drain dry. The fan blades may also be clean-
ed with soapy water. Replace the cleaned filter in the
exhaust hood.
Replace the light bulb with an equivalent type.
The range hood may also house the monitor panel.
Operating instructions for the monitor panel functions
are in the Plumbing and Electrical sections of this
manual.
AIR CONDITIONER (Optional)
The optional roof-mounted air conditioner can
operate only when the motor home is connected to
120-volt AC power from either a public utility or the
generator. Be sure to turn the air conditioner circuit
breaker ON.
For best performance, park the motor home in the
shade and close curtains. Close doors and windows
and turn the temperature control knob for desired
coolness. Refer to the air conditioner manufacturer's
instructions for detailed operation and preventive
maintenance requirements. Remember that air con-
ditioners require a large portion of your available elec-
tric power.
REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator may be operated from either LP gas
or 12-volt/120-volt electric power. Consult the
operating instructions furnished in your Owner's In-
formation Package. Before operating the refrigerator
when the motor home is parked, make sure it is level.
If it is not level, the refrigerant will not circulate, cool-
ing action will stop, and the refrigeration system may
be damaged.
The refrigerator uses the absorption principle of
operation. If you plan to cool food or drinks in high
38
outside ambient temperatures, pre-cool the food, and
park the motor home with the refrigerator vent door
in the shade. Once the interior of the refrigerator is
cool, the refrigeration system will usually maintain
this temperature. If the inside of the refrigerator is
hot, the food is not pre-cooled, and the outside
temperature is high, be prepared for longer cooling
times.
SMOKE DETECTOR
A battery-powered smoke detector complying with
ANSI A119.2/NFPA 501C is mounted in the living/cook-
ing area of your motor home. Please read the smoke
detector Owner's Manual for details on testing and
caring for this important safety device.
Smoke Detector
Test the smoke detector after the motor home has
been in storage, before each trip, and at least once
a week during use.
Twist
the
cover
of
the
smoke
detector
counterclockwise to remove it from the wall bracket.
If the smoke detector fails to operate with new bat-
teries, replace it with a new unit, available through
an authorized Fleetwood Service Center.
