SEAT BELTS
Three-point shoulder harnesses and lap belts are provided at the front driver and passenger seats by
the chassis manufacturer. See the chassis manual for operating instructions.
For the recreation vehicle section, the dinette, sofa, and barrel chairs have a two-point lap seat belts
installed. Swivel chairs must be locked in a forward or rearward position only for use while
traveling. To operate, slide the loose end of the seat belt into the buckle until it "clicks" in place.
Adjust by pulling the loose strap end until it fits snugly on your upper lap. To release the seat belt,
push the button on the buckle and pull apart.

WARNING: Your motorhome is equipped with seatbelts at all seat locations. Having
seatbelts at all seat locations does not necessarily mean that all seats can be occupied at
one time, because you cannot exceed the GVWR of your vehicle. When calculating the
loaded weight of the vehicle, make sure to include all people who will be riding in the
unit. The GVWR of your unit is located on the Motorhome Weight Information label.
NOTE: Pregnant women should consult a physician for seat belt use.
DRIVING
Driving a motorhome is similar to an automobile. Become familiar with all controls and handling
ability. Remember, a motorhome sits higher on a larger chassis and the wheel base and RV house is
longer which will require more space to turn and change lanes during travel. In addition, the
motorhome is heavier than a passenger car, thus a longer distance is required to pass another vehicle.
Always use turn signals when changing lanes. More distance may be required to stop your
motorhome.
CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that is extremely dangerous to humans
and animals. The following symptoms are indicative of individuals exposed to carbon monoxide:
•
Mild Exposure: Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue
•
Medium Exposure: Severe headache, drowsiness, confusion, fast heart rate
•
Extreme Exposure: Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardiorespiratory failure, death
A UL listed carbon monoxide detector has been installed in your motorhome. It is designed to detect
toxic CO fumes. It is not a substitute for other combustible gas, fire or smoke alarms.
