Fuel ller cap
Remove the fuel ller cap by slowly turning it counterclockwise and waiting for any “hiss”
noise to stop. Then unscrew the cap all the way. To close the fuel ller cap, securely turn the
cap clockwise until you hear clicking sounds.
Filling the fuel tank
If you spill fuel on the motor home, clean it up immediately. Fuel can dull or soften paint
and damage other surfaces. Use care when fueling your motor home.
Fuel Economy
Fuel economy depends on many factors. Your driving habits can signicantly affect your
fuel economy. Some recommendations for achieving maximum fuel economy are shown:
 Keep your tires inated to the recommended pressures.
 Keep your motor home “tuned-up.” An out-of-tune engine wastes fuel and costs you
money.
 Keep your air cleaner clean and your motor home lubricated according to the
recommendations in this manual and the Chassis Guide.
 Do not overload your motor home or tow heavy loads.
exhAust GAs fuMes
To avoid breathing exhaust gases, follow these precautions:
 Do not run the engine in conned areas, such as a closed garage, any longer than needed
to move your motor home in or out of the area.
 Windows should be closed while driving or running the generator (if so equipped) to
avoid drawing dangerous exhaust gases into the motor home.
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases as they contain carbon monoxide, which is a
potentially toxic gas that is colorless and odorless.

If you are in a parked motor home with either the engine running or the
generator running there is a potential for exhaust fumes to lter back into the
motor home.

Do not replace the fuel ll cap with one of a different type. Only use a cap
specied for your motor home. Use of a substitute cap may create excessive
fuel system pressure, resulting in fuel station damage and improper operation
in a collision.
