SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! We welcome you to the exciting world of motor home travel and camping. You will find it convenient and enjoyable to have all the comforts of home and still enjoy the great outdoors wherever you choose to go.
Your motor home has been carefully designed, engineered and manufactured to provide dependability as well as safety. Before sliding into the driver’s seat, please become familiar with operations and features. This manual was prepared to aid you in the proper care and operation of the vehicle and equipment. We urge you to read it completely. In addition, spend some time with the dealer when you take delivery to learn all you can about your new motor home.

ABOUT THIS MANUAL

Please read this operator’s manual completely to understand how everything in your coach works before taking it on its “maiden voyage.”
NOTE: This manual describes many features of
your motor home and includes instruc­tions for its safe use. This manual, including photographs and illustrations, is of a general nature only. Some equip-
ment and features described or shown in this manual may be optional or unavailable on your model. Because of
Winnebago Industries’ continuous pro­gram of product improvement, it is possi­ble that recent product changes and information may not be included. The instructions included in this manual are intended as a guide, and in no way extend the responsibilities of Winnebago Industries beyond the standard written warranty as presented in this manual.

out notice, and without incurring obliga­tion to install the same on products previously manufactured.

The materials in your Owner InfoCase contain warranty information and operating and maintenance instructions for the various appliances and components in your motor home.
NOTE: Many of the instruction sheets and man-
uals for the various appliances and com­ponents have been incorporated into the Operator Manual Supplement for your convenience. Throughout the Operator’s Manual when referred to the InfoCase keep in mind that much of this informa­tion will be found in the Operator Man­ual Supplement. Please read the FAQ in section 1 of the Operator Manual Supple­ment for more details.

CHASSIS OWNER’S MANUAL

Throughout this manual, frequent reference is made to the vehicle chassis owner’s manual that is provided by the manufacturer of the chassis on which this motor home is built (e.g., Freightliner). Consult the chassis owner’s manual for operating safety and maintenance instructions pertaining to the chassis section of the motor home.

PRE-DELIVERY INSPECTION

This motor home has been thoroughly inspected before shipment. Your dealer is responsible for performing a complete pre­delivery inspection of the chassis and all motor home components.
As a part of the pre-delivery inspection procedure, the dealer is responsible for road testing the motor home; noting and correcting any problems before delivery.

We recommend that you have the front suspension and steering alignment checked and adjusted after you have fully loaded the vehicle according to your needs. Thereafter, have
alignment inspected periodically to maintain vehicle steering performance and prevent uneven tire wear.

If you need warranty repairs while traveling you may take your motor home to any authorized Winnebago or Itasca dealership and request their assistance.
See the dealership directory in your Owner InfoCase.

REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Winnebago Industries, Inc.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your dealer, or Winnebago Industries.
To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-800-424-9393 (or 366-0123 in Washington, D.C. area) or write to: NHTSA, U.S. Department of Transportation, Washington, D.C. 20590. You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from the Hotline.

SECTION 2 SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS

GENERAL WARNINGS

• Only seats equipped with seat belts are to be occupied while the vehicle is moving.
• Make sure all passengers have seat belts fastened in a low and snug position so the force exerted by the belt in a collision will be spread across the strong hip area. Pregnant women should wear a lap-shoulder belt whenever possible, with the lap belt portion worn low and snug throughout the pregnancy.
• All moveable or swiveling seats should be placed and locked in forward facing positions while the vehicle is moving.
• Never let passengers stand or kneel on seats while the vehicle is moving.
• Sleeping facilities are not to be utilized while vehicle is moving.
• Examine the escape window and be familiar with its operation.
• Ιnspect the fire extinguisher monthly for proper charge and operating condition. This should also be done before beginning a vacation or any extended trip.

• Adverse weather conditions and extremes in terrain may affect handling and/or performance of your vehicle. Refer to your chassis manual for related information.

FORMALDEHYDE INFORMATION

WARNING
Some components in this vehicle contain formaldehyde based adhesives which may release formaldehyde fumes into the air for an unknown period of time until total dissipation occurs. Individuals who are allergic to formaldehyde gas fumes may experience irritation to eyes, ears, nose and throat. Reaction in infants may be more severe. Although long range effects are not well understood, testing to date has not revealed any serious health effects in humans at the level of emission from these products.
• Do not attempt to adjust the driver’s seat while the vehicle is moving.
• Do not adjust tilt steering in a moving vehicle.
• Do not operate the cruise control on icy or extremely wet roads, winding roads, in heavy traffic, or in any other traffic situation where a constant speed cannot be maintained.
• Use care when accelerating or decelerating on a slippery surface. Abrupt speed changes can cause skidding and loss of control.

LP GAS LEAK DETECTOR

Your coach is equipped with an LP gas leak detector which sounds an alarm if an unsafe amount of LP gas is present inside the coach. Because LP gas is heavier than air, the detector is located on a cabinet face near the floor of the coach.
See the LP Gas Leak Detector manufacturer’s information in your Owner InfoCase for complete instructions.
2-1
SECTION 2 SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS
LP Gas Leak Detector
WARNING
Never use an open flame to test for gas leaks. When testing for gas line leaks with a soapy water solution, DO NOT use a detergent containing ammonia or chlorine. These substances may generate a chemical reaction causing corrosion to gas lines, resulting in dangerous leak conditions.

CARBON MONOXIDE WARNING

WARNING
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases, as they contain carbon monoxide, which is a colorless, odorless and poisonous gas.
The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust and ventilation system. It is recommended that the exhaust system and body be inspected by a qualified motor home service center.
• Each time the vehicle is serviced for an oil
change.
• Whenever a change in the sound of the
exhaust system is noticed.
• Whenever the exhaust system, underbody or
rear of the vehicle is damaged.
Power Connection
The LP gas leak detector is powered by the coach batteries. If the auxiliary battery switch is shut off or the battery cable is disconnected from the batteries, the alarm will not work. The LP gas leak detector circuit breaker is located in the 12­volt house circuit breaker panel.
Because the LP gas leak detector is connected to the auxiliary battery, it is always drawing a small amount of current. Even though this current draw is slight, it could drain the coach battery during storage periods when the house battery will not be charged regularly by the engine or shoreline. Turn the Aux. Batt switch OFF to avoid current drain during storage periods.
Further Information
See the manufacturer’s information in your Owner InfoCase for further instructions on nuisance alarms and care and testing of the LP gas leak detector.
To allow proper operation of the vehicle’s ventilation system, keep front ventilation inlet grill clear of snow, leaves or other obstructions at all times. DO NOT OCCUPY A PARKED VEHICLE WITH ENGINE RUNNING FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD.
Do not run engine in confined areas, such as a garage, except to move vehicle into or out of area.

CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM

Your coach is equipped with a carbon monoxide (CO) alarm located on the ceiling in the bedroom area. The CO alarm is powered by a 9-volt battery and has a sensor that is designed to detect toxic carbon monoxide gas fumes resulting from incomplete combustion of fuel. It will detect CO gas from any combustion source such as the furnace, gas range/oven, water heater, refrigerator, chassis engine, and electric generator engine.

A dry chemical fire extinguisher is located near the main entrance door.
We recommend that you become thoroughly familiar with the operating instructions displayed on the side of the fire extinguisher or in the information supplied in your Owner InfoCase.
We also recommend that you inspect the fire extinguisher for proper charge at least once a month in accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommendations as stated on the label.
If the charge is insufficient, the fire extinguisher must be replaced.
2-3
SECTION 2 SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Do not test the fire extinguisher by discharging it. Partial discharge can cause leakage of pressure or contents which would render the unit inoperative when needed. When using the fire extinguisher, aim the spray at the base of the fire.
EMERGENCY EXITS
WARNING
Use care when exiting emergency window, as broken glass may be present in the exit area.
WARNING
This window should be kept closed while driving to avoid drawing dangerous exhaust gases into the vehicle.
Using Slider Windows As Emergency Exits
Most slider windows along the side of the motor home can also be used as emergency exits, should the need arise.
To use a slider windows as an exit, first slide the window open, then slide the screen open or push the screen material out, depending on window type.
Coaches that are required to have a slider window as an alternate exit window will be marked EXIT and have a red handled latch.
Escape Window
The bedroom escape window is secured by two red safety latches at the bottom of the window.
To open, lift both latches up and toward the center of the window, then push outward near the bottom of the window.

Lift latch handles upward to open.

Escape Window

Pull latch outward to slide window open

ROADSIDE EMERGENCY
Because of the size and weight of this vehicle and its tires, and the possible complications involved in tire changing, we strongly advise obtaining professional road service to change a flat tire whenever possible. However, if an emergency requires you to change the tire yourself, please exercise extreme caution and read all tire changing information in the chassis operating guide.
2-4
SECTION 2
SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS
Never get beneath a vehicle that is held up by
a jack only.
If You Get A Flat Tire
• DO NOT panic.
• Grip the steering wheel firmly and steer the vehicle as straight as possible. Avoid quick maneuvers. You may need to counter-steer to compensate for “pull” created by the failed tire.
• DO NOT stomp on the brake. This abruptly shifts the vehicle’s weight forward, making it nose-dive and pull toward the blown-out side.
• DO NOT jerk your foot off the accelerator. Just ease back on the accelerator slowly and gently to continue momentum. The deflated tire will slow the vehicle.
• If you must change lanes to get to a safe stopping place, use your signals to warn other motorists and change lanes smoothly and carefully after you are certain the lane is clear.
• Let the vehicle coast to a stop, gently steering to a safe stopping place off the traffic lanes of the road. Don’t worry about damaging the tire or wheel rim by driving on it. A tire or wheel replacement is cheaper than damaging the vehicle or injuring yourself.
• When you have come to a stop, activate your hazard flashers to warn other motorists, then exit the vehicle carefully.
• Set out flares or other warning devices.
Check your tires for proper inflation before
each trip and at least once a month with an accu­rate tire gauge.
Recovery Towing
When calling a professional towing service, we recommend that you advise them of your coach length and approximate front axle weight listed on your Vehicle Certification Label. This will allow the towing operator to determine the proper towing equipment to use.
We recommend that you ask for an underlift (wheel lift or frame lift) type towing assembly for safe towing.
Winnebago Industries does not assume responsibility for damage incurred while towing this vehicle.
NOTE:Consult the chassis owner’s manual for
any additional towing instructions or precautions provided by the chassis man­ufacturer.
CAUTION
Do not lift on bumper. Damage will result to front end body parts.
WARNING
Stay out from beneath the motor home while it is suspended by the towing assembly unless the vehicle is adequately supported by safety stands. Do not allow passengers to occupy a towed vehicle.
JUMP STARTING
If your coach will not start from the automotive batteries, try using the Battery Boost Switch to divert power from the coach batteries to the starter. (See Battery Boost Switch in Section 3). If you wish to try jump starting the engine using another vehicle or booster system, see your chassis owner’s manual for connecting jumper cables to the automotive electrical system.
WARNING
Do not attempt to push-start this vehicle. Damage to the transmission or other parts of the vehicle could occur.

SECTION 2 SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS
ENGINE OVERHEAT
If you see or hear steam escaping from the engine compartment or have any other reason to suspect an extreme engine overheating condition, pull the vehicle over to the roadside as soon as it is safe to do so, stop the engine and get all passengers out of the vehicle.
WARNING
Operating a vehicle under a severe overheating condition can result in damage to the vehicle and may result in personal injury.
Ventilate with Outside Air
Partially open one or more windows and a roof vent to circulate outside air through the coach. In cold weather, this ventilation may increase use of the furnace, but it will greatly reduce the condensation inside the coach.
Minimize Moisture Released Inside the Coach
Run the range hood fan while cooking, and open a bath vent while bathing or showering to carry water vapor out of the coach. Avoid making steam from boiling water excessively or letting hot water run. Avoid bringing extra moisture into the coach by way of soaked clothing or snow on shoes. Do not hang-dry wet overcoats or clothing inside the coach.
For information on what to do in case of overheating, consult your chassis operating guide.
EFFECTS OF PROLONGED OCCUPANCY
Your motor home was designed primarily for recreational use and short term occupancy. If you expect to occupy your coach for an extended period, be prepared to deal with condensation and humid conditions that may be encountered.
Humidity and Condensation
Moisture condensing on the inside of windows is a visible indication that there is too much humidity inside the coach. Excessive moisture can cause water stains or mildew which can damage interior items such as upholstery and cabinets.
When you recognize the signs of excessive moisture and condensation in your coach, you should take immediate action to minimize their affects.
You can help reduce excessive moisture inside the motor home by taking the following steps:

• Lift the recliner lever and let the seat back tilt forward to clear the steering wheel.
• Swivel the seat the rest of the way to face the living area.
• Position the tilt wheel down and the column all the way in to provide maximum clearance to recline the seat.
• Reverse the procedure to face the seat forward.
SEAT BELTS
Seats intended for occupancy while the vehicle is in motion are equipped with seat belts for the protection of the driver and passengers.
Power Seat
• Tilt the steering wheel all the way up and put the left armrest down.
• Move the seat rearward fully and then forward a few inches.
• Swivel the seat to the right until it just contacts the steering wheel, then move the seat forward all the way to clear the steering wheel.
• Swivel the seat the rest of the way to face the living area.
• Collapse the steering column all the way and position the tilt wheel down to provide maximum clearance to recline the seat.
• Reverse the procedure to face the seat forward.
Armrest Adjustment
The armrests may be swung upward out of the way for easy exit or access to the front seats. A roller on the underside of the front of the armrest also lets you adjust the resting angle for personal comfort, whether the seat is upright or reclined.
Lap Belts
The lap belts must be worn as low as possible and fit snugly across the hip area. Always sit erect and well back into the seat. To gain full protection of the safety belt, never let more than one person use the same safety belt at any one time, and do not let the safety belts become damaged by pinching them in the doors or in the seat mechanism. After any serious accident, any seat belts which were in use at the time should be replaced.
Adjustment: To lengthen belt, turn tongue at a

DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
tongue into buckle. Adjust to a snug fit by pulling the loose end away from the tongue.
To Release: Press button in center of buckle and
slide tongue out of buckle.
WARNING
Snug and low belt positions are essential. This will ensure that the force exerted by the lap belt in a collision is spread over the strong hip area and not across the abdomen, which could result in serious injury.
Only seats equipped with seat belts are to be occupied while vehicle is in motion.
Lap-Shoulder Belts
Fastening: Hold the belt just behind the tongue using the hand nearest to the door. Next, bring the belt across the body and insert the tongue into the buckle until the latch engages.
Unfastening: Press the release button in the buckle. Hold onto the tongue when you release it from the buckle to keep it from retracting too rapidly.
When the lap-shoulder belt is in use, the lap belt must ride low across the hip area and the shoulder belt must ride diagonally over the shoulder toward the buckle.
The shoulder belt is designed to lock only during a sudden stop, sudden body movement or a collision. At all other times it will move freely with the occupant.
WARNING
Never wear the shoulder belt in any position other than as stated above. Failure to do so could increase the chance or extent of injury in a collision.
Seat Belt Care and Cleaning
• Be careful not to damage the belt webbing and hardware. Take care not to pinch them in the seat or doors.
• Inspect the belts and hardware periodically. Check for cuts, frays, and loose parts. Damaged parts should be replaced. Do not remove or modify the belt system.
• Keep belts clean and dry. If the belts need cleaning, use only a mild soap and water solution. Do not use hot water. Do not use abrasive cleaners, bleach or dyes. These products may weaken the belts.
• Replace any belt assembly that was used during a severe impact. Replace the complete assembly even if damage is not apparent.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
A properly installed and secured child restraint system can help reduce the chance or severity of personal injury to a child in an accident or during a sudden maneuver. Children may be injured in an accident if they are seated in a child restraint system which is not properly secured.
A child restraint system is designed to be secured in a vehicle seat by a lap belt or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulder belt. According to accident statistics, children are also safer when properly restrained in rear seating positions than in front seating positions.
When purchasing a child restraint system:
1. Look for the label certifying that it meets all
applicable safety standards.
2. Make sure that it will attach to your vehicle
and restrain your child securely and conveniently so that you are able to install it correctly each time it is used.
3. Be certain that it is appropriate for the child's
height, weight and development. The instructions and/or the regulation label attached to the restraint typically provides this information.

DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
MAP LIGHT SWITCH
Turn the map light on using the Panel Light
brightness thumbwheel control.
Roll it up towards “Cargo/Dome” until you
feel it click into the map light ‘on’ position.
How It Works
The exhaust brake generates “braking” power by controlled restriction of the engine’s exhaust gas flow.
When the exhaust brake is activated, a valve closes off the engine’s exhaust causing the exhaust back pressure to increase, which causes the vehicle to slow down.
The increased back pressure would normally stop the engine except the forward momentum of the vehicle keeps the drivetrain and the engine turning.
This controlled back pressure helps to regulate a vehicle’s downhill speed, such as on mountainous or hilly roads. It also provides “braking” on level or near-level roads.
WARNING
See your chassis manual for further
information on this switch.
