Customer Responsibility
It is important you read and understand all instructions and precautions before operating the
recreation vehicle. Even if you are an experienced RV’er we encourage you to thoroughly
read this Owner’s Manual, as well as the information contained in your Warranty Packet and
Chassis Guide (motorized only).
As technology advances, new improvements enter the RV industry every day, and each RV
manufacturer has its own unique manufacturing process.
Familiarize yourself with the Limited Warranty applicable to your recreation vehicle. There
are components that are excluded or warranted separately by their individual manufacturer’s
limited warranty (refer to the Warranty Packet or Chassis Guide if applicable).
As the new owner of the recreation vehicle, you are responsible for regular and proper
maintenance performed in accordance with this manual and the OEM manuals. Regular and
proper maintenance will help prevent conditions arising from neglect that are not covered by
the limited warranty. It is your responsibility and obligation to return your vehicle to your
dealer for repairs and service.
Change Of Address/Ownership
Please notify our Customer Service Department as soon as possible of a change of address
by writing or calling us. For notication of a change of ownership, please ll out the appro-
priate form located in this manual and mail it to Customer Service along with documentation
showing proof of ownership. Please include your current vehicle mileage (motorized only).
Suggestions For Obtaining Service
To help ensure your dealer provides the level of service you expect, here are some sugges-
tions we would like to make:
Do not wait until you are ready to use your RV. Your dealer
may not be able to service it immediately and/or the repair may require parts be ordered. The
dealer’s service department is busiest on Mondays, Fridays and before the holidays.
If you are having warranty work performed, be sure to
have the right papers with you. Take your warranty folder and have your vehicle informa-
tion available. All work to be performed may not be covered by the warranty. Discuss ad-
ditional charges with the service personnel.
Provide your dealer with a written list of specic repairs needed. It is
important that you provide any vehicle repair history to the dealer’s service personnel.
Keep a maintenance log of your vehicle’s service history. This can often provide a clue to
the current issue.
If you leave a list with several items and you need
your vehicle returned back by a specic time, discuss the situation with the dealer’s service
personnel and list your items in order of priority. This may include making a second ap-
pointment for work not completed or parts that the dealer may need to order.
Please don’t be oended if you are
told you cannot watch the work being done. Some insurance requirements forbid admission
of customers to the service area.
Finally, check out the service or repair job when you pick
up your vehicle. Notify the dealer’s service personnel immediately of any dissatisfaction.
If you cannot return the vehicle immediately for repair, make an appointment as soon as
possible.
15
Please be aware that all service shops require notication of any issues with their repairs
within a specied time limit. Make sure you are familiar with their repair policies.
Obtaining Service For Separately Warranted Items
Your selling dealer is responsible for servicing your recreation vehicle before delivery,
and has an interest in your continued satisfaction. We recommend your dealer perform all
inspection, warranty and maintenance services. Some dealers may be authorized service
centers for those OEMs whose products are warranted separately and excluded from the
Obtaining Service At Our Customer Service Facility
Should your recreation vehicle be in need of service, and your dealer recommends that the
repairs be made at our Customer Service facility, your recreation vehicle may be returned to
us with the following guidelines*
You or your dealer must make a conrmed appointment 60 days prior to dropping
o the recreation vehicle at our Customer Service facility.
The holding tanks must be emptied and rinsed. We have a dumping station avail-
able for customer use.
The propane system (if so equipped) and all electrical systems must be shut down
and turned o. We are not responsible for discharged batteries or propane tanks.
During the appropriate season, please ensure the RV has been winterized.
Unless prior approval has been obtained from our Customer Service facility, all
personal items must be removed from the area where you are requesting service
repair and the refrigerator emptied. We are not responsible for loss of food items.
All transportation costs are the responsibility of the owner. You may need to
arrange for alternative accommodations for some types of repairs. Please be pre-
pared accordingly.
*Our Customer Service facility occasionally utilizes local independent repair facilities.
Your vehicle may be referred to or repaired by one of these local repair facilities.
Parts and Accessories
Contact your authorized dealer for assistance in obtaining replacement parts or accessories.
We do not sell direct to retail or non-authorized dealers. If the original part is no longer
available, we will make every eort to provide an appropriate substitute.

This Limited Warranty covers only recreational vehicles sold in, and that remain in, the
United States, U.S. Territories and Canada and used for the intended purpose of recreational
travel and camping. If a substantial defect in material or workmanship, attributable to Jayco,
is found to exist and is reported to Jayco or an authorized servicing dealer during the appli-
cable warranty period, it will be repaired or replaced, at Jayco’s option, without charge to the
RV owner, in accordance with the terms, conditions and limitations of this limited warranty.
This limited warranty applies to the rst consumer purchaser of a new RV only. All rights
and limitations within this warranty are applicable to the original owner of the RV only. You
may contact an independent, authorized dealer for details.
Jayco’s obligation to repair or replace defective materials or workmanship is the sole obliga-
tion of Jayco under this limited warranty. Jayco reserves the right to use new or remanufac-
tured parts of similar quality to complete any work, and to make parts and design changes
from time to time without notice to anyone. Jayco reserves the right to make changes in
the design or material of its products without incurring any obligation to incorporate such
changes in any product previously manufactured. Jayco makes no warranty as to the future
performance of this RV, and this limited warranty is not intended to extend to the future per-
formance of this RV, or any of its materials, components or parts. In addition, the RV own-
er’s obligation to notify Jayco, or one of its independent, authorized dealers, of a claimed
defect does not modify any obligation placed on the RV owner to contact Jayco directly
when attempting to pursue remedies under state or federal law.
Jayco makes no warranty of any nature beyond that contained in this limited warranty. Jayco
does not authorize any person to create any other obligation or liability for it regarding this
RV, and Jayco is not responsible for any representation, promise or warranty made by any
dealer or other person beyond what is expressly stated in this limited warranty, and no one
has the authority to enlarge, amend or modify this limited warranty. Any selling or servicing
dealer is not Jayco’s agent, but an independent entity.
17
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion
or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions
may not apply to you.
The duration of this Limited Warranty is 2 years. The warranty period begins on the date
that the RV is delivered to the rst retail purchaser by an independent, authorized dealer of
Jayco, or, if the dealer places the vehicle in service before retail sale, on the date the RV is
rst placed in such service.
The term of this Limited Warranty is 3 years for substantial defects to any “Structure Com-
ponents”. Structure Components means materials and/or workmanship directly attributable
to Jayco relating to the lamination of the berglass sidewall assembly, the lamination of the
rear wall assembly, the lamination of the berglass front wall (wrap) assembly, sidewall/end
wall/front and rear wall frame assembly (wood and aluminum), roof frame assembly (wood
and aluminum), and oor frame assembly (wood and aluminum). Structure Components
specically excludes front and rear berglass caps and any other cosmetic berglass attach-
ments, sidewall metal (unless the root cause is the wall structure); exterior roof material
(EPDM rubber, TPO, etc.); oor covering (carpet, linoleum, hardwood tile, etc.); all side-
wall, end wall, front and rear wall, roof and oor attachments, and delamination caused by
water intrusion from lack of required exterior seal maintenance or other maintenance. Struc-
ture Components further excludes all items identied under “What is Not Covered” below.
Jayco reserves the right to have new or remanufactured parts of similar quality used to
complete any work, and to make parts and design changes from time to time without notice
to anyone. Jayco reserves the right to make changes in the design or material of its prod-
ucts without incurring any obligation to incorporate such changes in any product previously
manufactured. Jayco makes no warranty as to the future performance of this RV, and this
limited warranty is not intended to extend to the future performance of this RV, or any of its
materials, components or parts. In addition, the RV owner’s obligation to notify Jayco, or
one of its independent, authorized dealers, of a claimed defect does not modify any obliga-

If you need assistance, you may contact Jayco, at 903 S. Main Street, P.O. Box 460, Middle-
bury, Indiana 46540, Attn: Customer Service, (800) 283-8267.
NOTE: Jayco does not control the scheduling of service work at the independent, authorized
dealerships. You may encounter some delay in scheduling or completion of work. Also, you
must notify the selling dealer at time of delivery to have work performed on any defect that
occurred at the factory during manufacture at no cost to you as provided by this limited war-
ranty. (See below under WHAT IS NOT COVERED).
If two (2) or more service attempts have been made to correct any covered defect that you
believe impairs the value, use or safety of the RV, or if it has taken longer than thirty (30)
days for those types of repairs to be completed, you must, to the extent permitted by law,
notify Jayco directly, in writing, at the above address, of the unsuccessful repair(s) of the
alleged defect(s) so that Jayco can become directly involved in making sure that you are
provided service pursuant to the terms of this limited warranty.
Jayco’s obligation is to address, within industry standards, any covered substantial defect
discovered and reported within the warranty coverage period provided: (1) you notify Jayco
or an authorized dealer within 10 days of your discovery of the substantial defect; AND (2)
you deliver the RV to Jayco or an authorized dealership at your cost and expense. If this
primary remedy fails to successfully cure any substantial defect after a reasonable number of
repair attempts, your sole and exclusive remedy shall be to have Jayco pay an independent
service shop of your choice to perform repairs to the substantial defect. If the substantial
defect is incapable of being repaired, your exclusive remedy will be to receive diminished
value damages (i.e. the dierence in your purchase price and the actual value of the RV on
the date of purchase due to the substantial defect that is incapable of repair). You must ex-
haust the primary repair remedy and this back-up remedy and both these remedies must fail
of their essential purpose before initiating any action against Jayco.
By way of example only, this limited warranty does not cover any of the following:
•defects in materials, components or parts of the structure of the RV not attributable to
Jayco;
•items that are added or changed after the RV leaves the possession of Jayco;
•additional equipment or accessories installed at any dealership, or other place of busi-
ness, or by any other party, other than Jayco;
•any RV used for rental or other business or commercial purposes (Note: It shall be
concluded that the RV has been used for commercial and/or business purposes if the RV
owner or user les a tax form claiming any business or commercial tax benet related
to the RV, or if the RV is purchased, registered or titled in a business name or any busi-
ness association such as a corporation or limited liability company);
•any RV sold or used outside the United States, U.S. Territories or Canada;
•any RV not used solely for recreational travel and camping;
•any RV purchased through auction or wholesale;
•any RV purchased from a dealer that is not an authorized dealer of Jayco;
•any defect arising from excess weight placed on the Structural Components;
•normal wear, tear or usage, such as tears, punctures, soiling, mildew, fading, or discol-
oration of exterior plastic or berglass, or soft goods, such as upholstery, drapes, carpet,
vinyl, screens, cushions, mattresses and fabrics;
