V Review the compatibility of your tow vehicle with the trailer you will be
towing. You, as the owner, are responsible for the safety and
compatibility of your tow vehicle and trailer selections.
V You must not exceed the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the
trailer. Include all additions, cargo and tank fluids when calculating
the weight of your trailer.
V Do not exceed the towing or cargo capacity of your tow vehicle. You
must clearly understand how your tow vehicle’s capacities are
calculated.
V Do not load your trailer so that it is unbalanced from front to rear or
from side to side.
V Know your loaded hitch weight and select a hitch that is adequate for
that weight. Consult your hitch and tow vehicle manufacturers with
any questions before you tow your trailer.
V You are responsible for the maintenance of your tow vehicle and trailer.
Make sure your tow vehicle is mechanically sound for your intended
usage. Pay particular attention to suspension components, tires and tire
pressure.
V We recommend the use of sway control devices and weight distributing
hitches with all Jayco towable products (excluding fifth-wheels, which
use a different type of hitch).
V Obey all traffic laws and use your seatbelts at all times. Many states
have lower speed limit requirements for tow vehicle/trailer
combinations. We recommend that you do not exceed 55 MPH when
towing a trailer.
Consult an expert for specific driver education when towing a trailer. There are private RV
driving schools, and some RV clubs, which offer driving seminars as part of their club
activities. Recreation vehicle publications and the Internet can be a source of information
regarding RV driver education, as well as many other topics to help you learn to safely use
your recreation vehicle.

WELCOME
Thank you for purchasing your Jayco Recreation Vehicle (RV) and welcome to the world
of recreation vehicle travel. Your purchase of a Jayco RV allows you to enter this unique
world of camping and leisure in a grand style. Your Jayco RV has been designed and
engineered to offer many comforts of home to make your camping experience as enjoyable
as possible. Jayco RVs are designed, constructed, warranted and intended to be used as
temporary living quarters for recreational, camping and travel uses, as defined in the
bylaws of the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association. Our recreation vehicles are not
intended for hauling of cargo.
This owner’s manual will assist you in understanding the RV’s proper use and operation. If
you are a newcomer to RV travel, you will appreciate the suggestions and “shop talk”
information found throughout this manual.
Keep this manual in your recreation vehicle for handy reference. Get to know your new
vehicle and how it operates. The information in this manual reflects the most current
available to us at the time of publication. This manual is a supplement to various other
instructions supplied by the manufacturers of separately manufactured and warranted
component parts. Carefully read, understand and follow this owner’s manual and all
information supplied by manufacturers of components. This information contains
important operating, safety, and maintenance instructions. Direct questions that are not
answered by the owner’s manual or other booklets, to your independent, authorized dealer.
If they cannot satisfactorily answer your questions, they will call or refer you to the
component part manufacturer or Jayco.
Your vehicle was manufactured based on the applicable requirements of:
• Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
• State Regulations
• Canadian Standards Associations (CSA) (where applicable)
• Requirements of ANSI Standard A119.2, the nationally recognized Standard For
Recreation Vehicles – Installation of Plumbing, Heating and Electrical Systems.
The Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) and Canadian Standards Association
(CSA) periodically inspect our production line and assist us in maintaining strict
compliance with installation and safety standards for those systems.
Periodic safety inspections and a program of preventive maintenance are necessary for the
continuation of safe and trouble-free operation.
Camping is a great way to relax and enjoy the outdoors with your friends and family. Please
remember to tread lightly on our beautiful land and leave only your footprints so that others
may enjoy nature as much as you did.

Indiana at the address for warranty service, and permit Jayco to perform a
final repair attempt.
Independent, Authorized Dealer
When you purchased your Jayco RV, we trust you had a pleasant experience. We consider
the network of independent, authorized Jayco dealers to be some of the best in the RV
business. This group of independent contractors is an integral part of Jayco’s continued
success.
Throughout this manual, we will refer you to your independent, authorized dealer for
assistance with certain component parts or procedures. If you are traveling outside your
independent, authorized dealer’s area, you are never far from another independent,
authorized Jayco dealer with over 300 dealerships in our network.
Your independent, authorized dealer has inspected and serviced your new Jayco RV. The
independent, authorized Jayco dealers are available for service and maintenance to your
camping trailer. All warranty repairs should be performed by an independent, authorized
Jayco dealer unless Jayco gives prior approval.
Some RV dealers may be a service center for manufacturers of products warranted
separately. To reduce delays, contact your independent, authorized dealer for service
available through them. If your independent, authorized dealer is not a service center for
the product or component part part in question, they can assist you in finding service.
Parts
Parts are available at dealerships or your independent, authorized dealer can order parts for
you as needed. All retail parts inquiries should be routed through your independent,
authorized dealer.
Owner’s Responsibility
As a new owner of a Jayco recreation vehicle, you are responsible for understanding
how your trailer, and its various component parts, work and need to be maintained.
You are also responsible for the regular and proper maintenance of your RV. This
will help you prevent conditions arising from neglect that are not covered by your
Jayco Limited Warranty.
Maintenance service should be performed in accordance with this owner’s manual and any
other applicable manuals.
As the owner, it is your responsibility and obligation to return the RV to an independent,
authorized dealer for repairs and service. Reference your Jayco Limited Warranty for
additional information. Because the dealer where you purchased your RV is responsible
for its servicing before delivery and has an interest in your continued satisfaction, we
recommend that inspection, warranty and maintenance services be performed by that
independent, authorized dealership.

Safety
Safety in Using Propane
We recommend that all work on the propane system be performed by your independent,
authorized dealer. The following information is provided to give a basic understanding of
propane.
Your recreation vehicle is equipped with a propane system to help provide some of the
comforts of home. This system is very dangerous. Proper handling of propane, knowledge
of your system and routine maintenance are key factors to your safety and that of others
around you. The following list provides basic information for propane safety:
• Propane is heavier than air. Leaking propane tends to flow to and pocket in low areas,
such as the trailer floor.
• Propane is colorless and odorless. A chemical odorant, smelling similar to rotten
eggs, is added by the propane manufacturer to make sure leaks are identifiable, which
can normally be smelled if there is a leak.
• Never light a match or allow any open flame in the presence of leaking propane or
the smell of propane.
• Turn off propane while refueling the tow vehicle.
• Some states prohibit propane appliances to be operated during travel, especially in
tunnels. Make sure you know the laws for the areas where you travel.
• Never allow propane containers to be filled above the liquid capacity as indicated on
the container. If a container is overfilled, liquid propane may flow through the
regulator causing it to freeze and/or create dangerously excessive pressure in the
lines. Make sure that an overfilled container is taken care of by a propane
professional before it is put into service.Safety
• An overfilled container placed in sunlight may expel excess propane through the
relief valve. This causes susceptibility to ignition by nearby open flame.
Taking time to become educated about propane and how it should be handled are critical to
your camping experience. If you have questions, consult with your independent,
authorized dealer or propane professional.
Checking for Leaks
Propane is both colorless and odorless. For your safety, a chemical agent is added by the
propane manufacturer, which smells similar to rotten eggs. If you are not accustom to the
smell of propane, ask your independent, authorized dealer or propane service personnel to
help you and your family become familiar with it.
Vibration from travel can cause connections to loosen. This requires that the propane
system be checked periodically for leaks. The system has been tested by the manufacturer
and Jayco recommends that the independent, authorized dealer test the system as well.
However, continued maintenance is recommended for safe operation.
TO LEAK TEST THE PROPANE SYSTEM
• Use an appropriate propane detector solution, or create a soapy water solution. If
soapy water is used, make sure that the soap used does not contain ammonia or
chlorine.
• Apply the solution to all propane piping connections.
• If a leak is present, the soap will bubble at the connections.

I
IF A LEAK IS DETECTED
• Turn off all appliances which utilize propane.
• Make sure that everyone is out of the RV, including pets.
• Turn off the propane at the cylinder(s).
• Take your RV to your independent, authorized dealer and have the system repaired
before using it again.

dangerous to humans and animals. The following symptoms are indicative of individuals
exposed to carbon monoxide:

Electrical System Safety
Circuit breakers and fuses are installed to protect electrical circuits from overloading. Do
not make unauthorized changes to circuitry or add fixed appliances. If you wish to make
changes, consult your independent, authorized dealer and they will assist you in obtaining
a safe installation.
An approved power cord has been supplied with the vehicle. Always use this cord for
hook-up to 120-volt shoreline power. The cord has a three pin plug, which provides proper
grounding through the third (round) pin. Grounding is personal protection from electrical
shock.
I
WARNING: Do not use an adapter, cheater, or extension cord that will
break the continuity of the grounding circuit connected to the third pin.
NEVER remove the grounding pin to connect a non-grounded,
two-prong receptacle. Any deviation from this will potentially cause a
fire from overheating.
Water System Safety
The following warning label is placed on the exterior of your trailer at each water tank
inlet. Make sure you read, understand and follow this label and all applicable instructions.
WARNING: POTABLE WATER ONLY. SANITIZE, FLUSH AND
I
Fire Extinguisher
A fire extinguisher is installed in each vehicle and is located near the entrance door in the
trailer. Be familiar with its location, operating instructions as printed on the extinguisher
and any material from the extinguisher supplier or manufacturer. It is too late to become
familiar with an extinguisher when an emergency is at hand.
The fire extinguisher is a dry chemical, nonrefillable extinguisher. Do not test this
extinguisher by partially discharging. Doing so will cause loss of pressure making the
extinguisher unusable. The extinguisher must be discarded and replaced by a new one if
any use has occurred.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
DRAIN BEFORE USING. SEE INSTRUCTION MANUAL. FAILURE
TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
To insure that your fire extinguisher will be ready when needed:
• Read and follow all instructions on label and in owner’s manual.
• Inspect the extinguisher AT LEAST once a month - more frequently if exposed to
weather or possible tampering.
• Check pressure by pressing in white indicator button. If button does not spring back,
extinguisher will not work properly and must be discarded.
• Be sure the yellow lock pin is firmly in place.
• Keep the extinguisher clean. Check for dents, scratches, corrosion or any other
damage.
• Check the discharge nozzle. Make sure it is clean and free of obstructions.

Changes, Modifications and Additions
Your RV has been built/designed with a specific floor plan and equipment. It is
recommended that you do not make changes, modifications, alterations or additions to
your unit. If any changes or additions are made after delivery of your trailer to you, it may
cause a hazardous condition. Consult your independent, authorized dealer before making
any changes, modifications, alterations or additions. Only qualified technicians should
attempt to make changes or additions to the RV, using only approved materials, component
parts, and employing approved methods of installation, which meet safety and code
requirements.
CAUTION: Under certain fire and heat conditions, the dry chemical
powder in this extinguisher (and similar units) will cause damage or
prove extremely difficult to remove from oven surfaces, including
self-cleaning models. Do not use self-cleaning feature to remove ABC
Powder.
CAUTION: Avoid inhaling the dry chemical agent contained in the
extinguisher. It is not toxic, but may cause skin irritation. In case of
contact, flush affected area with clean, cool water. If irritation persists,
contact a physician immediately. Chemical name of agent is printed on
extinguisher label.

Additional Safety Considerations
WARNING: For traveling safety, it is extremely important to read,
I
• Sanitize the fresh water supply system periodically (see sanitizing instructions).
• Prevent water connections from coming in contact with the ground or drain hose to
reduce chance of contamination.
• Have a certified RV technician repair and maintain the propane or electrical
appliances.
• Always have a serviceable fire extinguisher placed in an easily accessible location.
• Carefully read the loading section in the “Before You Travel...” chapter related to
your trailer.
• Ensure that the tires are in good condition and properly inflated. Monitor the tire
pressure closely for proper inflation. Neglecting to do so could result in overheating
of a tire, which could result in a blowout.
• Check and tighten the wheel lugs after the first 10 miles, 25 miles and then again
after 50 miles (16, 40 and 80 kilometers). Check periodically as described in the axle
manufacturer’s owner’s manual thereafter.
• Check the brakes in a safe area - not while traveling on a busy highway.
• Always block the trailer wheels solidly before unhitching from the tow vehicle.
• Never move the unit while people are inside.
• Before leaving a camping area towing a trailer, refer to the “Preparing to Travel
Home...” chapter and review all applicable instructions.
• Observe the warning labels attached to your vehicle concerning propane, water,
electricity and loading.
• Observe the maintenance chart in this manual and all applicable information supplied
by component part manufacturers related to your respective unit.
understand and follow the towing, hitching and loading cargo
information provided in the “Before You Travel...” chapter. If you do
not understand the information provided, please consult your
independent, authorized dealer.
COLD WEATHER/EXTENDED USE
Your trailer has been built for enjoyment in a recreational manner. It is not intended to be
used as full-time living quarters.
Caution: Continuous living in your trailer could cause accelerated wear and
damage to component parts. It also voids the warranty.
• Use of this trailer during cold weather will require more protection. Using skirting or
insulation below floor level will provide additional protection if you are camped in
one area for an extended period.
• Proper care should be taken with the fresh water and drainage systems to avoid
freezing problems. Consult with your independent, authorized dealer or RV supply
house for advice on heat tapes, etc.
