INTRODUCTION

Welcome

to

the recreational vehicle

life-style

and

the

growing'

family

of

motor

home

owners.

We

sincerely

thank

you for

choosing a Fleetwood

motor

home!

Your

Jamboree

Rallye has been designed

to

pro-

vide you

with

many years

of

carefree, pleasant travel-

ing and

vacationing.

This manual describes

many

features

of

your

motor

home

and provides an

operating

guide

so

that

you can obtain

the

best

per-

formance

from

those

features. Your

motor

home

has

been designed

to

conform

with,

or

exceed,

the

American

National Standards

Institute

A119.2, NFPA

501C,

Canadian CSA Standard

Z-240

(units

built

for

Canada only), and applicable

motor

vehicle standards.

These standards

establish

the

plumbing, heating, elec-

trical

and

other

requirements

for

quality

and safety.

Compliance

with

these

standards

is

indicated

by

the

seal

attached

just

outside

the

entry

door. This seal

is

the

outward

sign

of

internal

quality.

Like all

finely

crafted

equipment,

your

Jamboree

Rallye

will

require care and regular

maintenance

in

order

to

deliver

maximum

value and performance. The

dealer

will

give you basic

operating

and

maintenance

instructions;

however,

supplement

this

instruction

by

reading

all

instructional

material

furnished

with

the

motor

home

in

the

Owner's

Information

Package and

Chassis

Operator's

Manual.

If;

after

taking

delivery

of

your

new

motor

home,

you

feel

.it

requires addi-

tional

conditioning

or

adjustment,

please

return

it

to

your dealer

as

soon

as

possible. This

Owner's

Manual,

along

with

the

information

provided in

your

Owner's

Information

Package and Chassis

Operator's

Manual

outlines

important

areas

of

maintenance and provides

a

maintenance

schedule

for

you

to

follow

to

ensure

safe, troublefree service

from

your

motor

home.

Study

these

instructions

carefully

before you

operate

the

motor

home

for

the

first

time. Spend

some

time

with

your

dealer

going

over

safety

and

operating

instruc-

tions

before

you

leave

the

dealer's

lot. A

good

work-

ing

knowledge

of

your

motor

home

and

how

to

care

for

it

will

help

you

enjoy

many

miles and years

of

recreational

living.

If

you

have

any

questions

regarding operation,

maintenance,

or

service, please

contact

your

dealer

immediately

so

he can

assist

you. Your

dealer's

Ser-

vice

or

Sales

Department

will

handle any

normal

pro-

blems

which

might

occur.

'Your

motor

.home is covered by one

of

the

most

comprehensive

warranty

programs in the

RV

industry,

and

this

manual

contains a section

outlining

the

war-

ranty

and eXplaining

your

rights

and obligations,

as

well as

the

rights

and

obligations

of

the

dealer and

manufacturer,

under

the

terms

olthe

warranty. Please

read

this

section

carE)fully.

You

will

be

better

inform-

ed in case

you

have a

warranty-related

problem, and

your

dealer

will

be

better

able

to

get

you

on

the

road

again.

.'

If

there is

anything

about

the

warranty

or

what

it

does

or

does

not

cover, please
