General Information; Introduction; Customer Relations - Monaco 2002 Diplomat Service Manual

Table of Contents

This section contains warranty information and knowledge for the operation

and care of the motorhome. Not all information may be applicable to your

model of motorhome. More detailed information with CAUTION or WARNING

instructions, other than what is found in this chapter, can be found in the

manufacturer's owner manuals located in the owner information box.

In time you will develop a knack for spotting wonderful little roadside

locations by turning off the main highway and exploring. There are many

modern recreational vehicle parks (including state, county and federal parks)

with good facilities where you can obtain hook-ups for electrical, water and

sewage connections. Directories are published which describe these parks and

the availability of services and hook-ups. On overnight or weekend trips,

chances are you will probably not fill up the sewage holding tanks, deplete the

water or LP-Gas supply, or run down the batteries which supply the living area

with 12 Volt DC current. On longer trips, when you have stayed where sewer

connections and utility hook-ups were not available, it will be necessary to

stop occasionally to empty the holding tanks and replenish the water and

LP-Gas supply.

Many gas stations have installed sanitary dumping stations. Publications are

available which list these dumping stations. When stopped for the night the

Monaco Coach motorhome is built to be safely parked in any spot that is

relatively level and where the ground is firm. Try to pick as level a parking

spot as possible. Your facilities are with you and the motorhome is fully self-

contained.

The safety alert symbols of CAUTION or WARNING are "Personal

Safety Instructions." It is important to thoroughly read and understand these

safety instructions where the symbols are displayed throughout the manual.

Failure to comply with specific instructions may result in personal injury or

death. Many instructions are required by National Safety Associations.

Only by ensuring your confidence and satisfaction with our products and

services can we have continued success as a manufacturer of motorhomes. We

believe a good relationship with our customers is just as important as improving

the technical excellence of our products. Your authorized dealer is pleased to

help you with instructions about your motorhome and to offer service when

you need it. If problems remain after you have consulted your dealer you are

invited to contact our Consumer Affairs Department. Please have all pertinent

information (serial numbers, model number, etc.) when calling. We will work

with the dealer and see that every attempt to resolve the matter is made.
