Spring Startup
After storing the motorhome for an extended
period of time, run the water pump to pressurize
the water system and check for leaks. Visually
inspect the water syste or 15 inutes to
ensure there are no leaks.
Clean all your appliances and have the
propane line purged by a authorized dealer.
Ensure everything in the motorhome is working
correctly. Refer to the chassis manual in the
Motorhome Information Kit for any chassis
maintenance recommendations.
Cold Temperature Operation
The plumbing system in this motorhome is not
designed for cold weather use. Temperatures
at or below freezing will cause damage to the
plumbing system.
Chassis
Check engine coolant level and add antifreeze,
if required, to protect against lowest expected
temperature. Change engine oil to the
recommended viscosity to aid cold weather
starting. Refer to the chassis manual in
the Motorhome Information Kit for further
recommendations.
