Tires - Jayco 2016 ALANTE User Manual

JAYCO CLASS A MOTOR HOMES
We recommend you have the front suspension and steering alignment checked
and adjusted after you have fully loaded the vehicle according to your needs as
part of the vehicle maintenance. Thereafter, it is your responsibility to have the
alignment inspected periodically to maintain vehicle steering performance and
prevent uneven tire wear as part of your normal maintenance.
 NOTE: Always have the alignment checked and adjusted by a qualified shop
with the proper equipment to handle heavy vehicles.
 NOTE: A road test by the dealer should be included as part of the pre-delivery
inspection. The dealer can check for and correct any steering problems before you
take delivery.
After this road test has been completed, front-end alignment and/or vibrations will
not be covered as part of the new vehicle limited warranty

Read and understand the following before taking your first trip in your RV!
Proper care and maintenance of your tires is essential to ensure your safety, as
well as the safety of others, as you travel.
Routine maintenance on your motor home is important, but it cannot be overstated
just how critical proper tire maintenance is to the safety, operation and durability of
your new motor home. You must follow the manufacturer's inflation guidelines for
maximum load capacity; under-inflation is just as dangerous as over-inflation. To
insure your tires are operating safely, regular inspection of your tires and checking
tire pressures is absolutely mandatory.
Examine your tires frequently for unusual wear. Alignment, balance and bearing
wear will affect tire wear. Make sure to look for cracking, bulging, uneven tread
wear, etc.
When you are using your motor home, check inflation pressure weekly to insure
maximum tire life and travel wear. Pressure should be checked when the tires are
cold. During travel, tires heat up and pressure increases. Do not bleed air from
hot tires or your tires may then be under-inflated.
 NOTE: Cold tire inflation pressure is defined as a tire that has not been used
for three or more hours, or has been driven less than one mile. Tire inflation
pressure of a hot tire may show an increase of as much as 6 psi over a cold tire.
Failure to follow proper inflation guidelines may result in tire failure, which
under certain circumstances can cause loss of vehicle control or accidents
that may result in property damage, bodily injury and/or death.
Tire pressure should be checked at the beginning of each trip to obtain the
maximum life of the tire.
Certification label to determine the correct tire pressure. Under-inflation may
cause tire failures and swaying, this may result in loss of control, injury, death
or property damage.
