SECTION 1 – INTRODUCTION

Winnebago Towables employees welcome

you to our growing family of travel trailer and

fifth wheel owners. Since Winnebago Towables

inception, our goal has been to provide towable

recreational vehicles designed and engineered to

give many years of enjoyment to our customers

who love the great outdoors. This manual has

been compiled to assist campers, both novice and

experienced in set-up, use, and preventative

maintenance for continued enjoyment from their

travel trailer or fifth wheel. Like finely crafted

furniture or highly engineered automobiles,

Winnebago Towable travel trailers and fifth

wheels require care and regular maintenance to

retain maximum performance characteristics. If,

after taking delivery of your new trailer it

requires additional adjustment, please return the

trailer to your dealer as soon as possible. This

Owner’s Manual, along with information

provided in your Owner’s Information Package,

outlines important areas of operation and

provides maintenance schedules to ensure safe,

trouble-free service. Knowledge of trailer usage,

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Owner’s Manual will provide general

information and instruction. Product information

or instruction may not apply, may be excluded or

may be generalized because:

• Equipment and features described or shown

may be optional or unavailable on some

models.

• Ongoing design changes may not be included

because of continuous product improvement.

• Specifications may change without notice.

Descriptions or photographs in this manual

are representative of function and may not

specifically depict actual equipment, fabrics,

interior or exterior décor or design options as

installed with your trailer.

THIS PRODUCT IS DESIGNED FOR

RECREATIONAL USE AND SHORT-

TERM OCCUPANCY ONLY.

Winnebago Towable travel trailers and fifth

wheels are not designed or intended to be used as

permanent housing. Using this product for long

term or permanent occupancy may lead to

premature deterioration of appliances, plumbing,

interior finishes, fabrics, carpeting and drapes.

Damage or deterioration due to long term

occupancy is not considered normal, and

constitutes misuse or abuse under the warranty

terms, therefore voiding your warranty

protection.

Obtaining Service

Make an Appointment

Always make an appointment in advance with

the service center. Schedule as far in advance as

possible, always confirm the appointment as the

date approaches. Do not show up without an

appointment for service and expect that the

service center will be able to “fit you in.”

Arriving without an appointment may cause

additional aggravation when your request is met

with “I’m sorry but our schedule is full for the

next several weeks.”

Preparation for an Appointment

If you have made an appointment to have

warranty service, be sure to have the correct

papers with you. Take your Warranty

Registration paperwork and owner’s packet with

you to your appointment. Not all work to be

performedmaybecoveredby the warranty. Keep

a maintenance log of your trailer’s service

history. This can often provide a clue to the

current problem.

Prepare A List...

Make a written list of your trailer’s problems

or the specific work you would like completed. If

you’ve had an accident or work done that is not

on your maintenance log, let the service advisor

know. Please don’t keep secrets.

Be Reasonable With Requests...

If you list a number of items and you must

haveyourtrailerbytheendoftheday,discussthe

situation with the service advisor and list the

items in order of priority. Please do not expect to

add to the list for service beyond what you have

previously scheduled when you arrive for your

appointment.Eventhoughtheservicecentermay

be able to complete the additional requests, their

schedule has been determined based on your

original request.

INTRODUCTION

Inspecting Repairs

Winnebago Towable and your servicing

dealer want you to be satisfied with any repair.

After a repair is performed, inspect the

workmanship carefully. Check your service list

and go over the repairs with the service center

representative. Once satisfied, sign the

Winnebago Towable claim form. In the event a

problem should reoccur after you have left the

dealership, contact the repair center or

Winnebago Towables as soon as possible so that

the situation can be resolved in a timely manner.

If You Need Assistance...

Winnebago Towables and our dealers are

vitally interested in your satisfaction. We want

you to be happy with our products and services.

Your selling dealer is best equipped and most

anxious to provide prompt resolution for any

warranty issue or related matter that you may

experience. Winnebago Towable dealers have

the facilities, trained technicians, special tools

and the latest information to assure your trailer is

fixed correctly and in a timely manner. If special

circumstances arise, talk to your dealer’s service

manager. Most matters can be resolved with this

process. If for some reason you are still not

satisfied, talk to the general manager or owner of

the dealership. They want to know if you need

assistance. If your dealership is unable to resolve

the concern, you may contact Winnebago

Towable Customer Service.

Any communication to Winnebago Towable

Customer Service should include the following

information:

• Owner’s Name and Address

• Owner’s Telephone Number

• Dealership Name
