Mold is a plant and requires its own special
environment to grow. That environment includes
organic materials, nutrients, moisture, and proper
temperature.
How Can I Avoid Mold?
To reduce the ability for mold to grow, you
must reduce what constitutes its growth
environment. Mold can grow with the smallest of
a nutrient base. Just small amounts of dirt or dust
on the carpet can be enough to allow the mold
process to begin. Keep the environment as clean
as possible. Vacuum the carpet. Clean food spills
thoroughly and quickly. Avoid grease buildup
near the stove or sink. Clean the exhaust fan
above the stove often.
Minimize moisture in your motor home and
keep humidity low. Clean spills quickly. Do not
allow condensation to build up. You can open
windows and vents to minimize condensation.
Use of the air conditioner can assist in removing
moisture from the air. Avoid leaks, but if leaks do
occur, make repairs promptly.
Avoid bringing mold into your motor home.
Plants, cloths, books, and other household items
may already have mold present. It is easy to
transfer mold into your motor home
environment.
Monitor your motor home. Periodically check
those hidden areas in corners, closets, and
cabinets to assure mold is not present.
What if I Have Mold?
If mold develops, clean the area with a
concentrate of soap and bleach. Items that
contain mold that cannot be cleaned should be
removed from the vehicle.
Can Mold Harm Me?
The effects of mold and airborne mold spores
may cause irritation to some people. Experts
disagree on the level of exposure that may cause
health concerns.
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
If Mold Is Present, What Will
Winnebago Industries
If Winnebago Industries determines that mold
is present in the Winnebago
home as a result of a manufacturing defect
reported to Winnebago Industries within the
limited warranty period, Winnebago will clean
the affected area(s) and/or replace affected items
as it deems necessary. This is the extent of
coverage provided by Winnebago Industries.
Winnebago Industries, however, will not assume
responsibility for mold deemed to be a result of a
motor home users lack of timely and appropriate
action to mitigate circumstances should a
problem occur.
If Winnebago Industries determines that mold
is present due to conditions it determines is not a
result of a manufacturing defect found within the
warranty period, Winnebago Industries will not
provide any financial assistance to the repair of
the condition.

ROADSIDE EMERGENCY

Because of the size and weight of this vehicle
and its tires, and the possible complications
involved in tire changing, we strongly advise
obtaining professional road service to change a
flat tire whenever possible. However, if an
emergency requires you to change the tire
yourself, please exercise extreme caution and
read all tire changing information in the chassis
manual.
Never get beneath a vehicle that is held up by
a jack only.
If You Get A Flat Tire
DO NOT panic.
Grip the steering wheel firmly and steer the
vehicle as straight as possible. Avoid quick
maneuvers. You may need to counter-steer to
compensate for "pull" created by the failed
tire.
DO NOT stomp on the brake. This abruptly
shifts the vehicle's weight forward, making it
nose-dive and pull toward the blown-out side.
