Page 28 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 TIRE ROTATION Front and rear tires perform different jobs and can wear differently depending on the types of roads driven, your driving habits, etc. To obtain the longest tire life you should INSPECT AND ROTATE your tires regularly.
Page 29 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 TIRE SUPPORT Since motorhomes may sit for long periods of time it is important to properly support the tires if blocks are used for leveling. The following information is provided by the Michelin Technical Group.
Page 30 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 INCORRECT One tire or a portion of one tire is supporting the full load. Portion of two tires are supporting the full load.

Page 43 Booklets are available which list these dumping stations. When you stop for the night, your Airstream motorhome is built to be safely parked in any spot that is relatively level and where the ground is firm. Your facilities are with you. You are self- contained. Try to pick as level a parking spot as possible.
Page 44 There is no substitute for common sense in cold weather. Note: The Airstream motorhome is built as a recreational vehicle and is not intended as a permanent dwelling or for more than temporary use in sub-freezing temperatures.
Page 45 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 EXTENDED STAY Making a long trip is not very different from making a weekend excursion. Since everything you need is right at hand, you are at home wherever you go. When packing for an extended trip, take everything you need, but only what you need.

Page 47 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 EXTERIOR The sidewalls and roof of your Airstream Land Yacht motorhome are laminated fiberglass with a gel coat exterior finish. No paint means the small mars and scratches can be polished out or repaired using gel coat. We recommend this be done professionally since excessive polishing can remove the gel coat.

Page 49 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 KEYLESS DOOR LOCK Operation The dead bolt portion of your motorhome may be controlled by radio signals produced by the key fob shown below. One characteristic of this system is the one second delay after a pad has been depressed.
Page 50 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 ROOF LADDER For traveling, the ladder should be hinged down and snapped securely into the nylon sockets. If the ladder is down and rear compartment access is required, the bottom of the ladder is pulled out of the sockets (a good hard tug is needed) then swung up vertically.
Page 51 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 INTERIOR The luxurious interior of your Airstream motorhome has been designed for comfort, convenience, durability and appearance. An understanding of the operational procedures and maintenance techniques of the interior appointments will add to your pleasures, as well as to the long life of your motorhome.
Page 52 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 INTERIOR (cont) Carpet The carpet can be cleaned with any good commercial carpet cleaner, or with a detergent and water. HOWEVER, BE CAREFUL NOT TO SOAK THE CARPET WITH WATER. Hardwood Flooring Daily care for the planked hardwood floor is by vacuuming. Occasionally waxing with a non- water base wax will help extend the life of the floor.
Page 53 The dealer will be able to give you the cleaning code and part number for the fabrics used in your particular motorhome. The following are the cleanability code instructions for the various fabrics used in the Airstream motorhomes:...
Page 54 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 Drapes Use the following procedures to remove drapery panels for cleaning Front Wrap Around Drapes 1. Remove screws securing rear end of drapery track bracket to wall, both roadside and curbside. 2. Remove the plastic end cap.
Page 55 Replace any regulator that has had water in the spring case, or shows evidence of external corrosion, or corrosion inside the spring case. Closely examine regulators directly connected to the container valve by means of a solid POL adapter (horizontal mounting) for signs of corrosion. (An Airstream Service Center is recommended for this service.)
Page 56 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 BASIC RULES FOR SAFETY WARNING: DO NOT store LP containers within vehicle. LP containers are equipped with safety devices that vent gas should the pressure become excessive. WARNING: DO NOT use cooking appliances for comfort heating. Cooking appliances need fresh air for safe operation.
Page 57 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 LP TANK INSTALLATION The regulator at the L.P. tank is under a black plastic cover. The protective cover certainly helps to keep the vent on the regulator from getting clogged by wasps or ice, but should still be checked regularly to make sure the vent remains clear.

Page 59 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 WATER SYSTEM - SELF-CONTAINED The fresh water system consists of a water fill, fresh water tank, water-pump, pump filter, hot and cold water lines, water heater, drain valves, and faucets. To operate the system: Turn the water heater by-pass valves to normal flow position.
Page 60 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 WATER PUMP AND STRAINER The water pump and strainer are located under the rear bed. The strainer should be visually checked for accumulation of sand or debris that could affect water flow. To clean the strainer screen, first remove the inlet connection from the pump side of strainer.

Page 62: Trouble Shooting
AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 ELECTRICAL: A. The Aquajet RV pump has a motor speed controller that is factory pre-set to operate at a minimum current of 10 amps while operating on a 12 VDC system. A 15-amp fuse must protect the electrical system.
Page 63 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002...
Page 64 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 CITY WATER HOOKUP Use a high-pressure hose of at least ½ " diameter. It should be one that is tasteless, odorless and non- toxic designed for RV use. The city water inlet is a standard garden hose thread.
Page 65 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 EXTERIOR WATER SERVICE Next to the black tank flush is a second water hose hook-up with a shut off valve. This is plumbed into the fresh water system of the motorhome. This is an ideal place to rinse the sand off your feet after going to the beach, cleaning mud off your boots and hundreds of other messy jobs that are better done outside of your motorhome.

Both outlet ports must be fully inserted into the filter ports.
Page 68 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Controlling The Water The PureTouch system has two options for water delivery, unfiltered stream and filtered water. STREAM MODE: Unfiltered water in regular stream flow When the water is turned on at the faucet, the spout will always begin operating in the regular stream mode.
Page 69 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM: Water flows from both outlets, filter and unfiltered, when the filter button is pushed. SOLUTION: No filter is installed. Install a filter. PROBLEM: After installing a new filter, the filter life indicator still flashes red.

Page 72 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 DRAIN AND HIGH PRESSURE WATER VALVES Your Land Yacht motorhome has 10 water valves not counting your interior faucets. 3 valves are located under the double bed behind the hinged door. One each for draining hot and cold water lines and the third drains the water tank.
Page 73 313-769-6000 Canada, L4T 1G3 The RV toilet in your Airstream is a design that has been used for many years. In normal use, when you are hooked up to city water, both pedals are depressed together. This dumps the sewage and fresh water and flushes down the side of the bowl. Water will continue to run into the bowl for a short time after the pedals are released.
Page 74 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 TROUBLE SHOOTING PROBLEM: Water keeps running into bowl. CAUSE: The blade in the bottom of the bowl is not closing completely, which in turn keeps the water control valve partially open. The groove into which the blade seats when completely closed is clogged with foreign material.
Page 75 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 MAINTENANCE If the bowl-sealing blade does not operate freely after extended use, it may be restored to its original, smooth operating condition by applying a light film of silicone spray to the blade. To clean the toilet use Thetford Aqua Bowl or any other high grade, non-abrasive cleaner.

Page 84 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 For additional winterizing protection, add non-toxic antifreeze (approved for drinking water systems) to your water lines using the following procedure: 1. Reconnect all lines except the hose to the pump inlet port. Close all drain valves (See Step 3) *2.
Page 85 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 DRAIN AND WASTE SYSTEM The drain and waste system of your motorhome includes waste holding tanks made from molded plastic. The MAIN HOLDING TANK enables you to use the toilet for several days away from disposal facilities.
Page 86 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 When Parked and Connected to Sewer Outlet When you are in a park and connected to a sewer outlet, keep the main holding tank dump valve closed and empty the tank every few days or whenever it becomes almost full. ONLY BY SENDING A LARGE VOLUME OF LIQUID THROUGH THE MAIN HOLDING TANK AT A TIME WILL TOILET PAPER AND OTHER SOLIDS COMPLETELY WASH AWAY.
Page 87 The hydraulic pump for the leveling jacks is located under the front hood. There are two sets of fuses in your motorhome. Several circuits of Airstream installed equipment are fused in the Battery Control Center in the roadside front exterior compartment, see page H-4. The main interior circuits are fused in the 12-volt distribution panel beside the Battery Control Center.
Page 88 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 12-Volt Operation The only thing you have to do is make sure the two coach batteries and engine battery does not run down. In normal usage there isn't any problem, since you would normally drive part of the day and be plugged into a campground at night.

In order to obtain a true reading on the batteries, you must be unplugged from city power and disconnected from your tow vehicle.
Page 117 AIRSTREAM LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL 2002 Oversensitive readings: Oversensitive readings can occur as a result of scum buildup on the tank walls, abnormally high mineral content in the water, or incorrectly located holding tank probes. In these situations, the monitoring system indicates higher levels than are actually present in the holding tank.
