SECTION 2 – SAFETY AND 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. Lap belts should fit low on the hips and upper thighs. The shoulder belt should be positioned snug over the shoulder.
For pregnant women, the lap belt should be placed under the abdomen and across the upper thighs. The shoulder belt should be positioned across the center of the chest. Consult your doctor if you have any questions.
Child restraints should be installed properly according to manufacturer’s instructions. See “Child Restraints”.
All moveable or swiveling seats should be placed and locked in position 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.
Inspect the fire extinguisher monthly for proper charge and operating condition. This should also be done before beginning a vacation or any extended trip.
Use care when accelerating or decelerating on a slippery surface. Abrupt speed changes can cause skidding and loss of control.
Never drive the vehicle with a slideout room extended.
Driving through water deep enough to wet the brakes may affect stopping distance or cause the vehicle to pull to one side. Check brake operation in a safe area to be sure they have not been affected. Never operate any vehicle if a difference in braking efficiency is noticeable.
Adverse weather conditions and extremes in terrain may affect handling and/or performance of your vehicle. Refer to your chassis manual for related information.

FUEL AND PROPANE GAS

DANGER
All pilot lights, appliances, and their ignitors (see operating instructions) shall be turned off before refueling of motor fuel tanks and/or propane containers. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.

DRIVING SAFETY

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.
WARNING
Propane gas containers, gasoline, or other flammable liquids shall not be placed or stored onboard the vehicle because a fire or explosion may result. Propane gas containers are equipped with safety valves, which relieve excessive pressure by discharging gas to the atmosphere. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.

SECTION 2 – SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
All pilot lights must be extinguished and appliances turned off while refilling the fuel tank or LP gas tank.
Never smoke while refilling vehicle fuel tank or LP gas tank.
Never use an open flame to test for LP gas leaks. Replace all protective covers and caps on LP system after filling. Make sure valve is closed and the door is latched securely.
Never connect natural gas to the LP gas system.
When lighting range burners, do not turn burner controls to “On” and allow gas to escape before lighting match.
Portable fuel-burning equipment, including wood and charcoal grills and stoves shall not be used inside the recreational vehicle. The use of this equipment inside the recreational vehicle may cause fires or asphyxiation.
LP gas regulators must always be installed with the diaphragm vent facing downward. Regulators are equipped with a protective cover . Make sure that the regulator vent faces downward and that the cover is kept in place to minimize vent blockage, which could result in excessive gas pressure causing fire or explosion.
The following warning label is located in the cooking area to remind you to provide an adequate supply of fresh air for combustion.
asphyxiation is greater when the appliance is used for long periods of time. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.

LP GAS LEAKS

The following procedures are located in the vehicle near the range area. If you smell gas within the vehicle, quickly and carefully perform the procedures listed.
IF YOU SMELL PROPANE
Extinguish any open flames, pilot lights, and
all smoking materials.
Do not touch electrical switches.
Shut off the gas supply at the tank valve(s) or
gas supply connection.
Open doors and other ventilating openings.
Leave the area until odor clears.
Have the propane system checked and leakage
source corrected before using again.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.

PROPANE GAS LEAK DETECTOR

Your coach is equipped a propane gas leak detector, similar to the one shown below. The leak detector sounds an alarm if an unsafe amount of propane gas is present inside the coach.
Unlike homes, the amount of oxygen supply is limited due to the size of the recreational vehicle, and proper ventilation when using the cooking appliance(s) avoids dangers of asphyxiation. It is especially important that cooking appliances not be used for comfort heating, as the danger of
2-2

Propane Gas Leak Detector

Because propane gas is heavier than air, the leak detector is located on a cabinet face near the floor of the coach.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD: DO NOT 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. Death or serious injury can result.
Power Connection
The propane gas leak detector is powered by the house batteries. If the house/coach battery switch is shut off or the battery cable is disconnected from the batteries, the alarm will not work. The propane gas leak detector fuse or circuit breaker is located in the 12-volt house electrical load center.
Because the propane gas leak detector is connected to the house battery, it is always drawing a small amount of current. Even though this current draw is slight, it could drain the house battery during storage periods when the house battery will not be charged regularly by the engine or shoreline.
Further Information
See the manufacturer’s information in your InfoCase for further instructions on nuisance alarms and care and testing of the propane gas leak detector.

SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
CARBON MONOXIDE WARNING
WARNING
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases, as they contain carbon monoxide, which is a colorless, odorless, and poisonous gas. Death or serious injury can result.
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.
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.

ELECTRICAL
Careless handling of electrical components can be fatal. Never touch or use electrical components or appliances while feet are bare, while hands are wet, or while standing in water or on wet ground.
Improper grounding of the vehicle can cause personal injury . Do not plug the utility power cord into an outlet which is not grounded and do not adapt the plug to connect to a receptacle for which it is not designed.
Do not attach an extension cord to the utility power cord.
Do not use any electrical device that has had the ground pin removed.
A void overloading electrical circuits. Replace fuses or circuit breakers with those of the same size and amperage rating only. Never use a higher rated fuse or breaker.
Use caution when handling or working near electrical storage batteries. Always remove jewelry and wear protective clothing and eye covering. Avoid creating sparks.
LOADING
NOTICE
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.
Replacement
If for any reason you must replace the fire extinguisher, the replacement must be the same type and size as the one originally supplied in your coach. We recommend obtaining a replacement only from your Winnebago Industries® dealer or a reliable RV parts supplier.
Store or secure all loose items inside the motor home before traveling. Possible overlooked items such as canned goods or small appliances on the countertop, cooking pans on the range, or free-standing furniture items can become dangerous projectiles during a sudden stop.
Be aware of GVWR, GAWR, and individual load limit on each tire or set of duals (See “Loading the Vehicle” in Section 12).
Never load the motor home in excess of the gross vehicle weight rating of the gross axle weight rating for either axle.
MAINTENANCE

FORMALDEHYDE INFORMATION
Some of the materials used in this recreational vehicle emit formaldehyde. Eye, nose, and throat irritation, headache, nausea, and a variety of asthma-like symptoms, including shortness of breath have been reported as a result of formaldehyde exposure. Reaction to formaldehyde exposure may vary among individuals. Elderly persons and young children, as well as anyone with a history of asthma, allergies, or lung problems may be at greater risk. Research is continuing on the possible long-term effects of exposure to formaldehyde. Inadequate ventilation may allow formaldehyde and other contaminants to accumulate in indoor air. Ventilation to dilute the indoor air may be obtained from a passive or mechanical ventilation system. Always be sure to thoroughly ventilate your recreational vehicle before and during each use. High indoor temperatures and humidity may raise formaldehyde levels. When a recreational vehicle is in areas subject to high temperatures, an air conditioning system can be used to control indoor temperature levels. If you have any questions regarding the health effects of formaldehyde, consult your doctor or local health department.
MOLD, MOISTURE, AND YOUR MOTOR HOME
What is Mold?
Molds are part of the natural environment. They are as old as the Earth itself and mold spores are almost everywhere at some level waiting to grow. Mold plays a part of nature by breaking down dead organic matter, such as fallen leaves and dead trees. Indoors however, mold growth should be avoided. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores. Those spores are invisible to the naked eye and float throughout the outdoor and indoor air. Because of the nature of the use of a motor home, it is natural for a motor home to be introduced into an environment with mold spores.
SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
Mold is a plant and requires its own special environment to grow. That environment includes organic materials, nutrients, moisture, and proper temperature.
How Can I Avoid Mold?
To reduce the ability for mold to grow, you must reduce what constitutes its growth environment. Mold can grow with the smallest of a nutrient base. Just small amounts of dirt or dust on the carpet can be enough to allow the mold process to begin. Keep the environment as clean as possible. Vacuum the carpet. Clean food spills thoroughly and quickly. Avoid grease buildup near the stove or sink. Clean the exhaust fan above the stove often.
Minimize moisture in your motor home and keep humidity low. Clean spills quickly. Do not allow condensation to build up. You can open windows and vents to minimize condensation. Use of the air conditioner can assist in removing moisture from the air. Avoid leaks, but if leaks do occur, make repairs promptly.
Avoid bringing mold into your motor home. Plants, cloths, books, and other household items may already have mold present. It is easy to transfer mold into your motor home environment.
Monitor your motor home. Periodically check those hidden areas in corners, closets, and cabinets to assure mold is not present.
What if I Find Mold?
If mold develops, clean the area with a concentrate of soap and bleach. Items that contain mold that cannot be cleaned should be removed from the vehicle.
Can Mold Harm Me?
The effects of mold and airborne mold spores may cause irritation to some people. Experts disagree on the level of exposure that may cause health concerns.
2-7
SECTION 2 – SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
If Mold Is Present, What Will
®
Winnebago Industries
If Winnebago Industries determines that mold is present in the Winnebago®/Itasca® motor home as a result of a manufacturing defect reported to Winnebago Industries within the limited warranty period, Winnebago will clean the affected area(s) and/or replace affected items as it deems necessary. This is the extent of coverage provided by Winnebago Industries. Winnebago Industries, however, will not assume responsibility for mold deemed to be a result of a motor home users lack of timely and appropriate action to mitigate circumstances should a problem occur.
If Winnebago Industries determines that mold is present due to conditions it determines is not a result of a manufacturing defect found within the warranty period, Winnebago Industries will not provide any financial assistance to the repair of the condition.
Do?
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. Do not 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.
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 manual.
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.
Spare Tire Storage
If your coach is supplied with a spare tire, it is located in the rear storage compartment. Remove wing nut from inside tire rim and lift or slide tire out.
Some models, however, may have a swing­down spare tire carrier beneath the rear of the coach. Please follow all safety warnings and instructions for removing spare tire from the carrier.
Swing-Down Carrier (if equipped)
CAUTION
Do not lie beneath tire carrier while removing tire. The tire can fall and injury can occur.
Support tire carrier with a jack or block while
removing wire pin and wing nut from bolt at back of carrier.
Carefully lower tire carrier to ground.
2-8
SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
Lift or slide tire from carrier.
Do not over-tighten wing nut when returning carrier to storage position.
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.
