mendations and precautions regarding washers

LIGHTS
All exterior lights should be checked for prop-
er operation each time the vehicle is prepared for
a trip. Any bulbs which fail to light should be
checked and replaced, when necessary, with a
new bulb of the same size. A failure of more than
one light, such as both taillights not operating,
may indicate a burned out fuse. Check fuse and
replace with one of the same rating when neces-
sary. If a fuse is not the cause of the problem, the
wiring system should be checked immediately by
an authorized service center.
The headlight circuit is protected by a circuit
breaker. An overload on the breaker will cause
the lights to flicker on and off. Headlight wiring
should be checked immediately anytime this con-
dition is apparent. Refer to your chassis operating
guide for further information.
AUTOMOTIVE 12-VOLT FUSES
AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The automotive fuses and breakers are pro-
tected from short circuit and overload conditions
by a fuse block. On most models, this is located
beneath the dash to the left side of the steering
column. See your chassis operating guide for
additional fuse replacement information.
Always replace plug-in type fuses with those
of the same amperage size.
Maintenance
• Do not remove the radiator cap while engine
and radiator are still hot. Always check cool-
ant level visually at the see-through coolant
reservoir.
• Never get beneath a vehicle that is held up by
a jack only.
• Do not mix different construction types of
tires on the vehicle such as radial, bias or belt-
ed tires, as vehicle handling may be affected.
Replace tires with exact size, type and load
range.
• Do not attempt to start the vehicle by hot-wir-
ing.
TOWING GUIDELINES
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR):
This is the maximum allowable weight of the
fully loaded vehicle. Included are fuel, water, LP,
passengers, cargo, tools, and optional equipment
installed by the motor home manufacturer, deal-
er, or owner. This value is found on the VIN la-
bel, typically placed near the driver position.
