Remove snow loads from the top of your RV to prevent damage to the unit’s structure.

Caution: Excessive snow, 8" or more, or ice, 2" or more, places excessive weight on
roof. Remove excessive snow or ice as needed. Care MUST be exercised to not
damage the roof material when removing snow & ice. Excessive weight can damage
the roof, seals, etc. Water leaks and poor fit or operation are the results of this
damage.

CAMPING TRAILER COVERS

Use only breathable fabric camper covers, such as those available through your
independent, authorized dealer, when storing your folding camping trailer.

Caution: DO NOT store the camping trailer under a dark colored cover. Use only
light colored breathable covers to prevent extreme heat. Consult with your
independent, authorized dealer for the proper products to use.

WINTERIZING

Preparing your recreation vehicle for winter is very important for most states and Canada.
Failure to prepare the trailer will cause the supply lines and the water heater to freeze
causing breakage. Repairs due to freezing are not be covered under the terms of your Jayco
Limited Warranty.

Please keep in mind that your trailer was not designed for use during sub-freezing weather.

There is no commodity or product that can be added to the fresh water system to ensure
freeze protection while the system is in use, other than RV antifreeze. Do not drink water
that contains antifreeze. This includes non-toxic RV antifreeze.

I

WARNING: Do not use Ethylene Glycol (automotive antifreeze) or
Methanol (windshield washer antifreeze) in your fresh water system.
They are harmful to the water system and may be fatal if swallowed.
