How to Use This Manual<br />

Introduction<br />

Your motorhome has been thoroughly inspected before shipment to the dealer. Your selling dealer<br />

is responsible for performing a complete pre-delivery inspection of all motorhome components as<br />

specified in the pre-delivery checklists supplied by the manufacturer. You should receive a copy of<br />

these completed checklists from your dealer when the motorhome is delivered to you.<br />

Should a problem arise, your first step is to contact your selling <strong>Thor</strong> <strong>Motor</strong> <strong>Coach</strong> dealer who will be<br />

glad to handle your situation. This Owner’s Manual is not intended for use as a service manual, but<br />

rather as a guide to help you become familiar with your motorhome.<br />

This manual is not model specific, which means that it is used for a variety of different models that <strong>Thor</strong><br />

<strong>Motor</strong> <strong>Coach</strong> manufactures. It is of a general nature, so the illustrations and descriptions may not be<br />

exactly as they are in your particular motorhome.<br />

If you are unclear or unfamiliar with any procedure that is described in this manual, see your <strong>Thor</strong> <strong>Motor</strong><br />

<strong>Coach</strong> dealer for further clarification before proceeding.<br />

<strong>Thor</strong> <strong>Motor</strong> <strong>Coach</strong> uses the following notations to warn the user of possible safety concerns and to<br />

provide information that will prevent personal injury to the user and/or damage to the motorhome.<br />

CAUTION<br />

A WARNING INDICATES A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION THAT, IF NOT<br />

AVOIDED, MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.<br />

A CAUTION INDICATES A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION THAT, IF NOT<br />

AVOIDED, MAY RESULT IN MINOR OR MODERATE INJURY.<br />

NOTE: A NOTE INDICATES AN INSTRUCTION OR PROCEDURE THAT IS IMPORTANT FOR<br />

PROPER SERVICE. A NOTICE CAN ALSO SUPPLY INFORMATION THAT WILL<br />

HELP TO MAKE YOUR CAMPING EXPERIENCE MORE PLEASANT.<br />

A DANGER INDICATES AN IMMINENTLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION THAT, IF NOT<br />

AVOIDED, WILL RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.<br />

REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS<br />

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect, which could cause an accident, injury, or death, you should<br />

immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying<br />

<strong>Thor</strong> <strong>Motor</strong> <strong>Coach</strong>.<br />

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety defect<br />

exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot<br />

become involved in individual problems between you and your dealer or <strong>Thor</strong> <strong>Motor</strong> <strong>Coach</strong>.<br />

To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll free at 888-327-4236, TTY: 800-<br />

424-9153, or write to: Administrator, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey Avenue S.E., Washington DC, USA<br />

20590. You can go to the NHTSA website, www.safercar.gov. You can also obtain other information<br />

about motor vehicle safety from the Hotline.<br />
