INFO
Use caution when using the internet as a
resource tool. Verify the information is from a
credited and reliable source in the RV industry,
and it pertains to your RV. If in doubt, contact
your RV dealer or Jayco Customer Service for
assistance.
DRIVING & ALCOHOL
The presence of alcohol in significant levels in
the blood increases the probability that the
driver will be involved in an accident. Exercise
your good judgment and encourage others to
do the same. Know the legal alcohol limits and
do not exceed them. Be aware of your
personal limits, which may be lower than the
legal limits. Should you ever exceed your limits
or find your driving is impaired, find alternative
transportation. NEVER DRINK AND THEN
DRIVE.
KEYS
Several keys are provided when you purchase
your RV. Most keys have an individual key
number stamped on the plate. Record these
key numbers and keep the information in safe
place. You can order a key blank from your RV
dealer to have duplicate keys made. If you lose
the keys, contact your RV dealer or a locksmith
for assistance.
Make sure the keys are not inside the RV
before you close and lock the entrance
door.
DRIVER & FRONT PASSENGER SEAT
Adjust the driver’s seat to the position that
enables you to easily control the pedals,
steering wheel and instrument panel switches
for safety and ease in controlling your vehicle.
SEAT BELTS
Seat belts are installed in your motorhome to
protect the driver and passengers. Always use
seat belts. In an accident, injury to the driver
and passengers may be reduced if seat belts
are properly used.
0 Never use one seat belt for more than one
occupant.
0 Never carry more people in the
motorhome than there are seat belts.
0 Only seats equipped with seat belts are to
be occupied while the vehicle is in motion.
0 While traveling, do not occupy beds or any
seats that do not have seat belts.

DRIVING & HANDLING
Driving after drinking or taking drugs
(including some prescriptions and/or
over-the-counter medications) can lead to
an accident. Studies have shown
perceptions are less sharp, reflexes are
slower, drowsiness may be experienced
and/or judgment may be impaired.
Do not adjust the seat while driving. This
can be dangerous. After adjusting the seat,
make sure that it is locked in position. To
ensure that the seat is locked securely, try
to move the seat forward or backward
without using the adjusting lever or button.
Do not put packages, pets or other objects
between the driver’s and front passenger
co-captain’s seat. If traveling with pets,
make sure they are in pet carriers fastened
according to the pet carrier manufacturer’s
instructions.
Legislation in some states may require you
to use seat belts, but even if it is not
required, a seat belt should always be worn
by anyone who drives or rides in this
vehicle.
