ter
rim and pulling firmly down and forward (or down

the
raised position, be sure

STORAGE
Storage facilities
on
your
motor
home
have been
es-
pecially designed
to
remain secure while
the
vehicle
is'
in
motion. Exterior compartments have
key-operated
locks except for the
LPG
compartment,
which
is
requir-
ed
by
fire-preventive regulations
to
be
unlocked
at
all
times. Drawers rest
in
small notches
or
detents
when
closed;
to
open, lift slightly
to
clear
the
detent,
then
pull
open normally. For best results, follow a
few
simple
rules when stowing articles
in
the
motor
home.
1.
Always keep tools and
equipment
stored
in
areas where
they
will
not
shift while traveling.
2.
'Wherever possible, place heavy articles in stor-
age
compartments which are low
and
between
the axles for better weight
distribution.
3.
Use
a "packing" technique
of
the
articles
in
a
compartment
to
prevent shifting. I f necessary,
secure articles with strap
to
prevent
move-
ment.
4.
Be
sure
that
containers holding liquids are cap-
ped and
cannot
tip
or
spill. When glass con-
tainers (or dishes) are
transported,
secure
them well
to
protect against accidental break-
age.
