See the Chassis Operator's Manual in the Owner's
Information Package for chassis fuel recommendations. The
optional generator is designed to run on the same fuel as the
chassis. Consult the generator operating instructions for spe-
cial cautions about maintenance with different types
of
fuels.
The fuel fill is located on the rear
of
the motor home.
Modern fuel systems may build up vapor pressure within the
tank
as
the fuel warms during use or hot weather. Under cer-
tain conditions, sudden release
of
this pressure when remov-
ing the fuel cap can cause fuel
to
spray from the fill opening,
creating a fire hazard.
To
protect the fuel system from excessive pressure or vacu-
um, or from sudden release
of
pressure, replace lost or dam-
aged fuel fill caps with caps
of
the same design which are
available from your Fleetwood motor home dealer.
Clean up fuel spills immediately. Fuel spilled on the motor
home could damage the exterior finish, and
is.
a serious fire
hazard. .
Your motor home's automotive fuel and emissions systems
are sophisticated and highly engineered
to
meet Federal and
State emissions standards. They are sometimes sensitive
to
fuel types and blends, particularly fuels blended for certain
altitudes and climates. Fuel suppliers provide customers with
the correct fuel for their location and seasonal conditions.
Sometimes, though, fuel blended for winter is supplied dur-
ing summer months.
