8 EMERGENCIES WHILE DRIVING
The Triple E Motorhome is designed with features that allow the driver/occupants to resolve emergencies or failures when
travelling. Review this section to be familiar with the recommended procedure to resolve these conditions or situations.
Review this section with all new drivers and before each trip.
8.1 HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS
Each motorhome is designed with a hazard warning light system that is similar to the system on an automobile. Both the
front and rear turn signals ash in unison when the system is turned on. Refer to the chassis manual for details and location
of this switch. It is recommended that the warning lights be used whenever the vehicle is stopped on the side of the roadway.
The intermittent ashing lights will alert other motorists to a potential hazard and to take extra care. The system is designed
to continue to ash when the switch is on even though the ignition key is removed and you have left the vehicle.
8.2 FLAT TIRE
When you have a at tire while driving, slow down the vehicle gradually and pull o to the side of the road. Stop on a level
rm surface and engage parking brake. Turn on hazard warning lights to alert other drivers to use extra caution when driv-
ing in the vicinity.
It is recommended that a professional qualied road service be used whenever possible. If this is not possible, follow the
instructions in the chassis manual. Refer to chassis manual for instructions on where to place jack under the frame. Review
and follow all safety precuations listed.
Remove spare tire from its storage position. Be sure the lug nuts are tightened to their specied torque. Always use an ac-
curate torque wrench when mounting the wheel. Check the torque and re-tighten after 25 and 100 driving miles. Check
the torque at each oil change.
Safety Reminders:
1. Park the motorhome on a level surface.
2. Turn o the engine and set the parking brake.
3. Turn on the hazard warning asher.
4. Block both front and back of the tire on the opposite side of the vehicle from the at tire.
5. If the ground is soft, use a support board under the jack to keep the jack from sinking.
6. Make sure to use only the jacking points described in your chassis owner's manual.
7. Never get any part of your body under the vehicle while jacking or while it is suspended.
