Your motor home is equipped with a carbon monoxide (CO)
detector.
It
is usually located in the main sleeping area.
If
the indicator sounds, it is an indication that carbon monox-
ide gas is present. This may occur while idling in high traffic
concentrations where other vehicles as well
as
your motor
home are contributing to the carbon monoxide level in the
surrounding
air.
Sounding
of
the alarm does not indicate a
faulty alarm. The detector is doing its
job
of
warning you
of
potentially high concentrations
of
carbon monoxide. See the
section on
Carbon Monoxide in this manual.
Test the
CO detector after the motor home has been in stor-
age, before each trip, and at least once a week during use.
Please refer to the operating instructions included in your
Owner's Information Package.
The only safe and approved towing methods are either an
under reach wheel lift device, as installed on a minimum
3-ton tow truck chassis, or a flat bed trailer. Most tow truck
operators willing and able to tow motor homes will be famil-
iar with these devices. Be prepared to give the tow truck
operator at least the following information when you call:
Length
and
height
of
motor home
Chassis manufacturer
Gross vehicle weight rating
When towing with an under reach lift device, the vehicle
must be towed from the front, either on the rear wheels (if
operational) or on a heavy duty dolly. Consult your
Chassis
Operator's Manual.
To
prepare your motor home for towing:
1.
Secure any loose or protruding parts of the disabled vehicle.
2. Secure any heavy, loose items
in
the interior.
3. Turn off LP gas
appliances and the LP gas tank valve.
4.
Do
not allow any person to ride in the towed vehicle.

CAUTION
Do
not tow the motor
home from the rear.
Towing
from
the rear will
cause serious overload-
ing of the front tires and
suspension,
possibly
resulting
in
tire or front
suspension failure. The
rear frame extensions
are
not designed to withstand
the
load imposed
by
lift-
ing from the
rear.
