Pack articles carefully in the storage compart-
ments to minimize shifting. If necessary, 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 water-
tight in all climate conditions. Carry any ar-
ticles which could be damaged by water in-
side the motor home.
WARNING
DO NOT STORE FLAMMABLE, VOLATILE
LIQUIDS OR HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS IN-
SIDE THE MOTOR HOME OR IN OUTSIDE
STORAGE COMPARTMENTS. TOXIC FUMES
FROM THESE LIQUIDS OR CHEMICALS MAY
ENTER THE INTERIOR OF THE MOTOR
HOME.
Interior Storage
The closets and cabinets have friction catches along
one edge of the door. Overhead doors may 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 may be
switched to 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 interior storage areas as to exterior. Consult
the "Motor Home Loading" section in the "ON THE
ROAD" chapter.
INTERIOR AND FURNISHINGS
The materials used inside your motor home have been
selected for durability and comfort. With reasonable
care, these materials will stand up under years of
recreational living. The "MAII'!TENANCE" chapter in
this manual outlines care requirements for the various
upholstery fabrics, floor, cabinet, and wall finishes.

Folding Doors/Privacy Curtain Dividers
The dividers allow you to separate areas in the motor
home. They glide on nylon rollers and do not require
lubrication. They are held closed by a catch. When the
dividers are open for traveling, be sure to attach the
hold back straps to keep them from sliding back and
forth.
Interior Lighting
Both decorative and "utility" style 12-volt lighting fix-
tures may be used in your motor home.
Utility style fixtures may be either single or dual. A slide
switch selects either single or dual brightness. Foryour
convenience, some lights are operated from wall
switches. Clean the lenses in soapy water.
Overhead Vents
Overhead vents are located in the galley and bathroom
areas for fresh air circulation and exhausting heat,
odors, and water vapor.
Turn the crank in the center of the vent to open and
adjust. Some vents may also be equipped with a 12-volt
fan. A switch controls fan operation. Be sure to turn the
fan OFF before closing the vent.
