Over the air TV signals are received by the roof-mounted TV
antenna. To maximize signal quality, raise the TV antenna by
turning the ceiling-mounted crank inside the travel trailer. Once
raised, the antenna can be further tuned to improve reception by
rotating the antenna base. The TV antenna includes a powered
signal booster that also strengthens the signal. Note that it will
usually be necessary to re-scan for broadcast channels whenever
you relocate your travel trailer.
Cable/Satellite Connection
A coaxial cable is provided as part of the TV/monitor hookup. This
cable should be connected to the “IN” port on the TV. The other
end of the cable is located on the exterior wall of the travel trailer,
and is to be connected to a cable programming source, as provided
by many campgrounds, or an owner-installed satellite dish.
HEATING AND COOLING
Your travel trailer is expected to provide a comfortable living
environment for its occupants throughout an incredibly wide range
of temperature and environmental conditions. While like your home
in many ways, a travel trailer has to provide comfort in a multitude
of locations, often when weather conditions are extreme - And it
has to do its job while being compact, affordable, and mobile.
The effectiveness of the heating and cooling appliances in your
travel trailer can be greatly enhanced by some common-sense
factors, including these:
• On hot days, find shady parking places whenever
possible, to reduce the heating effect of the sun.
• Conversely, find sunny places on cold days to take
advantage of the sun’s warming effect.
• When hot temperatures are expected, begin the air
conditioner early in the day.
• Close shades and blinds to keep direct sun from heating
up the interior.
• Take advantage of natural cooling and air flow by
opening windows and vents whenever feasible.
• Use powered vent fans to help the air conditioner move
air through the unit.
• Move cooking tasks outside when possible to reduce the
amount of heat inside.
• Make sure all vents are unobstructed so air flow is not
impeded.
• Keep your furnace and air conditioner(s) working at peak
efficiency.
• NOTE: Never use the range or oven for space heating,
or the refrigerator for space cooling.
