SAFARI MOTORHOME LIMITED WARRANTY
What the Period of Coverage Is:
If you use your Safari motorhome only for recreational travel and family camping pur-
poses, the Limited Warranty provided by Safari ("Warrantor") covers your new
motorhome when sold by an authorized dealer, for twelve (12) months from the original
retail purchase date or the first 12,000 miles of use, whichever occurs first.
If you use your motorhome for any rental, commercial or business purposes whatsoever,
the Limited Warranty provided by Warrantor covers your new motorhome when sold by
an authorized dealer for ninety (90) days from the original retail purchase date or the first
12,000 miles of use, whichever occurs first. A conclusive presumption that your
motorhome has been used for commercial and/or business purposes arises if you have
filed a federal or state tax form claiming any business tax benefit related to your owner-
ship of the motorhome.
The above Limited Warranty coverage applies to all owners, including subsequent own-
ers, of the motorhome. However, a subsequent owner must submit a warranty transfer
form by filing the form through an authorized Safari dealer. A subsequent owner's war-
ranty coverage period is the remaining balance of the warranty coverage period the prior
owner was entitled to under this Limited Warranty. Warranty transfer forms can be
obtained by contacting the Consumer Affairs Department. There is no charge for the
transfer.

Limitations of Implied Warranties
ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING BY WAY OF STATE LAW, INCLUD-
ING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN
DURATION TO THE TERM OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND ARE LIMIT-
ED IN SCOPE OF COVERAGE TO THOSE PORTIONS OF THE MOTORHOME
COVERED BY THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. There is no warranty of any nature
made by Warrantor beyond that contained in this Limited Warranty. No person has
authority to enlarge, amend or modify this Limited Warranty. The dealer is not the
Warrantor's agent but is an independent entity. Warrantor is not responsible for any under-
taking, representation or warranty made by any dealer or other person beyond those
expressly set forth in this Limited Warranty. Some states do not allow limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
What the Warranty Covers:
Warrantor's Limited Warranty covers defects in the manufacture of your motorhome and
defects in materials used to manufacture your motorhome. Also see the section "What
the Warranty Does Not Cover" set out below.
What We Will Do to Correct the Problems:
Warrantor will repair and/or replace, at its option, any covered defect if: (1) you notify
Warrantor or one of its authorized servicing dealers of the defect within the warranty cov-
erage period and within five (5) days of discovering the defect; and (2) you deliver your
Motorhome to Warrantor or Warrantor's authorized servicing dealer at your cost and
expense. It is reasonable to expect some service items to occur during the warranty peri-
od.
Warrantor may use new and/or remanufactured parts and/or components of substantially
equal quality to complete any repair.
Defects and/or damage to interior and exterior surfaces, trim, upholstery and other
appearance items may occur at the factory during manufacture, during delivery of the
motorhome to the selling dealer or on the selling dealer's lot. Normally, any such defect
or damage is detected and corrected at the factory or by the selling dealer during the
inspection process performed by the Warrantor and the selling dealer. If, however, you
discover any such defect or damage when you take delivery of the motorhome, you must
notify your dealer or Warrantor within five days of the date of purchase to have repairs
performed to the defect at no cost to you as provided by this Limited Warranty.

If two or more unsuccessful repair attempts have been made to correct any covered
defect that you believe substantially impairs the value, use or safety of your motorhome,
you must, to the extent permitted by law, notify Warrantor directly in writing of the failure
to successfully repair the defect so that Warrantor can become directly involved in per-
forming a successful repair to the identified defect.
How to Get Service:
The Warranty Registration form must be returned to Warrantor promptly upon purchase
to assure proper part replacement and repair of your motorhome. Failure to return the
warranty registration form will not affect your rights under the Limited Warranty so long
as you can furnish proof of purchase. For warranty service simply contact one of
Warrantor's authorized service centers for an appointment, then deliver your motorhome
(at your expense) to the service center. If you need assistance in locating an authorized
warranty service facility, contact Warrantor's Warranty Department (1-800-344-6332).
The mailing address is:
Warranty Department
91320 Coburg Industrial Way
Coburg, Oregon 97408
In the event the motorhome is inoperative due to malfunction of a warranted part,
Warrantor will pay the cost of having the motorhome towed to the nearest authorized
repair facility provided you notify Warrantor prior to incurring the towing charges to
receive directions to the nearest repair facility.
Because Warrantor does not control the scheduling of service work by its authorized
servicing dealers, you may encounter some delay in scheduling and/or in the completion
of the repairs.
What the Warranty Does Not Cover:
This Limited Warranty does not cover: any motorhome sold or registered outside of the
United States or Canada; items which are added or changed after the motorhome leaves
Warrantor's possession; items that are working as designed but which you are unhappy
with because of the design; normal wear and usage, such as fading or discoloration of fab-
rics, or the effects of condensation inside the motorhome; defacing, scratching, dents and
chips on any surface or fabric of the motorhome, not caused by Warrantor; routine mainte-
nance, including by way of example wheel alignments; the automotive chassis and power
train, including, by way of example the engine, drivetrain, steering and handling, braking,
wheel balance, muffler, tires, tubes, batteries and gauges; appliances and components cov-
ered by their own manufacturer's warranty including, by way of example the microwave,
refrigerator, ice maker, stove, oven, generator, roof air conditioners, hydraulic jacks, VCR,

television(s), water heater, furnace, stereo, radio, compact disc player, washer, dryer,
inverter and cellular phone; or flaking, peeling and chips or other defects or damage in or
to the exterior or finish caused by rocks or other road hazards, the environment including
airborne pollutants, salt, tree sap and hail.
Events Discharging Warrantor From Obligation Under Warranty:
Misuse or neglect, accidents, unauthorized alteration, failure to provide reasonable and
necessary maintenance (See Owner's Manual), damage caused by off road use, collision,
fire, theft, vandalism, explosions, overloading, and odometer tampering shall discharge
Warrantor from any express or implied warranty obligation to repair any resulting defect.
Disclaimer of Consequential and Incidental Damages:
THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER OF THE MOTORHOME AND ANY PERSON
TO WHOM THE MOTORHOME IS TRANSFERRED, AND ANY PERSON WHO
IS AN INTENDED OR UNINTENDED USER OR BENEFICIARY OF THE
MOTORHOME , SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER FROM WARRAN-
TOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM
ANY DEFECT IN THE MOTORHOME . THE EXCLUSION OF CONSEQUEN-
TIAL AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES SHALL BE DEEMED INDEPENDENT OF,
AND SHALL SURVIVE, ANY FAILURE OF THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY
LIMITED REMEDY. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of conse-
quential or incidental damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you.
Legal Remedies:
ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE THIS EXPRESS OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY
SHALL NOT BE COMMENCED MORE THAN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE
EXPIRATION OF THIS WARRANTY. Some states do not allow the reduction in the
statute of limitations, so the above reduction may not apply to you.
THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY
ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS, WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.

Revision Date: July 15, 2001
The descriptions and specifications in this manual pertain to the 2002 model year and
were in effect at the time of its approval for printing. Safari reserves the right to change
specifications or designs without notice or without incurring obligation. This manual
includes information on several different model options. Your motorhome may not contain
every system described. If you have questions regarding this manual, please feel free to
drop us a line.
FOREWORD
To our valued customers:
Congratulations on the purchase of your Trek and welcome to the Safari family of
motorhome owners. You have made a substantial investment of time and money in select-
ing your coach. Now let's take the time to get to know it a little better.
Although we are quite sure this manual will never make the Book of the Month Club, or
even the Barnes and Noble Top Ten Beach Reads, it has been designed to offer you a
comprehensive overview of your motorhome's operational systems. By familiarizing your-
self with this manual and the manufacturer's manuals that came with your coach, hopeful-
ly you'll be able to breeze through any minor mishaps.
This is not intended to be a service manual, nor should it be used as such. If you have
questions regarding this manual, please drop us a line. If you require service or need war-
ranty assistance, please call Safari Warranty & Service or the number provided by the
component manufacturer. And remember…before calling Warranty, it's always a good
idea to write down the last seven digits of your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This
is located on a plaque next to the entry door on the exterior of the coach. This will speed
the process of locating your records. It is also helpful to note your coach's mileage.
Thank you - and we hope you enjoy your new Safari Trek!

CHASSIS & DASH OVERVIEW
Your Safari Trek is built on a P-Series chassis by Workhorse Custom Chassis. It is avail-
able with your choice of either a 6.5 liter diesel or a 454 CID Vortec or 8.1 liter Vortec
gasoline engine. Included in your warranty packet you will find a complete manual for the
chassis, which includes instructions for its use and maintenance. This section of the manual
covers modifications made in chassis and dash by Safari. Please consult your chassis manu-
al for general chassis information.
Safari does not modify any components that might affect the safety or performance of the
coach. We do not alter the fuel, braking or electrical systems. We strongly recommend that
you follow the same policy.
Add-on electrical equipment, fuel tanks, steering stabilizers, anti-sway devices and other
after market offerings may sound like wonderful items during the sales presentations, but
they can often cause more harm than good.
Remember, just as when you buy any new car, your coach will have that “new coach smell.”
That is because fabrics and carpeting have been treated with stain-resistant chemicals and
cabinetry has been lacquered.
Check with your service and warranty center before making any modifications to the
chassis. Some alterations can void your warranty.
VEHICLE OPERATION
WARNING: This manual is meant for reference only. Manuals for other components
and equipment are included in your warranty packet. Become familiar
with all procedures, cautions and warnings given in this manual and the
various manufacturers' manuals provided with your coach before
operating your motorhome.
When starting the engine, first make sure the parking brake is on and the headlights are
off. Put the transmission in PARK and turn the key to the ON position.

Trek Owner’s Manual
1 ~ 18
WARNING: If you have a diesel engine, you need to wait the appropriate amount of
time after turning the ignition to the ON position before actually
starting your coach. (See chassis manual.) Do not crank the starter
for more than thirty seconds at a time. If the engine fails to start, wait
before cranking again.
Check the engine oil pressure soon after starting. You should let the engine idle for three
to five minutes before moving out, but do not allow the engine to idle for too long. Idling
for more than ten minutes can lead to improper fuel consumption and may cause problems
with the efficiency of the engine.
NOTE: Minimize the load on the chassis batteries by turning off all unnecessary
lights and accessories when starting your coach.
In cold weather the engine may be more difficult to start. Oil becomes thicker, making the
engine crank more slowly. If you plan on traveling in cold areas (consistently below 20º
Fahrenheit) use oil that is recommended for colder climates.
If the chassis batteries fail to provide enough power to crank the engine fast enough, press
the battery boost switch to connect to the house batteries for added power.
Main Dashboard
The Trek has been designed to enhance your driving and living experience. The controls
are arranged around the central instrument cluster and are well marked for quick identifi-
cation. Most of these items require little explanation, but they are summarized here.

1. ICC Lights
PUSH this switch to activate exterior lights along the caps of the coach. This is useful to
alert passing motorists when they have safe clearance to return into the lane when passing
on two-lane highways.
2. Panel Lights
This switch allows the driver to illuminate the dash lights for nighttime convenience.
3. Cargo Bay Lights
These lights illuminate the interior of the cargo bay storage compartments.
4. Battery Boost
The Battery Boost Switch can be used to enlist additional power from the chassis batter-
ies for extra DC power when needed to start the engine. (See Electrical section for more
information on this feature.)
5. Rear Camera
The front television and rear view camera are installed at the factory to be ready to moni-
tor the area behind your coach. The camera is mounted on the back of the coach to view
the back of the coach and the area behind. This is a very useful feature when backing up
and while driving to make sure no vehicles are directly behind the coach.
The rear view system is designed to provide the
driver with a view of the rear of the motorhome. The
field of view is 140° in the diagonal plane, 121° in
the horizontal plane, and 90° in the vertical plane.
Power is supplied to the system when the ignition
key is turned to the Accessory or ON position. The
green LED illuminates. The display on the monitor
is controlled by the position of the power switch.
When in the ON position, the display is present. When
placed in the S/B (Standby) position, the display is
off until the gear shift lever is set to Reverse.
