AC
power, and is much
like the one in your home.
It
contains an auto-

the water temperature rises too high.
The
water heater is reached through an access
panel
on
the outside
of
the motor home.

water flows continuously the heater
is full.
A.
CAUTION
Do
not light water heater until it is filled with water.
Water Heater Bypass Valve

to
cut off the flow
of

REFRIGERATOR
Read the operating instructions furnished
in
your
OWller's Illformation Package. Before operating
the refrigerator when the motor home is parked,
make sure
it
is level.
If
it is not level, the refrig-
erant will not circulate, cooling action will stop,
and the refrigeration system may be damaged.
The refiigerator uses the absorption
ptinciple
of
operation.
If
you plan to cool food or dtinks in
high outside temperatures, precool the food, and,
if
possible, park the motor home with the refrig-
erator vent door in the shade. Once the interior
of
the refrigerator is cool, the refrigeration system
will usually maintain this temperature.
If
the
inside
of
the refrigerator is hot, the food is not
precooled, and the outside temperature is high,
it
will take longer for your food to be cooled.
FURNACE
The
furnace is a forced-air unit fueled by
Propane. All fumaces are equipped with a wall
thermostat for temperature setting.
The furnace will not operate properly
if
your
stored personal items block the free flow
of
air at
10-1
