WELCOME ™ Welcome to the world of recreation vehicle travel.

Do NOT use flame or lighted matches to test for leaks. Usually tightening the connections will close leaks. If not, ask your authorized dealer service department to make the necessary repairs. LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking gas tends to flow to low places. It will sometimes pocket in a low area.
EMERGENCY STOPPING SAFETY Always carry road flares and/or reflective triangular highway warning devices to be displayed when necessary. Pull off the roadway as far as possible when changing a flat tire or for other emergency situations. Turn on your vehicular hazard warning flashers when parked alongside a roadway, even if parked for only few minutes.

• Ensure that tires are in good condition and are properly inflated. Watch inflation especially closely: underinflated tires will overheat. Overheated tires are a potential hazard as they may throw rubber and cause a blowout. • Check and tighten wheel lugs regularly (every 50 miles when new until 200 miles are reached and then check lugs every 500 miles).
INSURANCE As with your automobile, it is important that you protect yourself and others with insurance coverage for personal liability, theft, collision, property damage, etc. Your dealer will assist you in obtaining appropriate insurance for your protection or you may check with the company that provides your automobile insurance.

We recommend that you install a class III hitch on your tow vehicle for use with all TrailManor models. We also recommend load-equalizing hitches for front- wheel drive vehicles. See your authorized TrailManor dealer or hitch specialist for specific installation instructions. Also, refer to your tow vehicle owner's manual for specific towing recommendations and load ratings.
"PINCH POINTS" When setting up or closing your TrailManor, there are a few places to watch to avoid pinching your fingers. Stay clear of the door when closing the trailer. Also, keep hands away from the lift arms, lift arm pockets, and the bed supports when opening or closing the trailer.
(90 to 95 foot pounds). BRAKES The brakes on your new TrailManor are electric and are integrated into the brake system of your truck or car in such a way that equal braking power may be distributed to both trailer and towing vehicle.
Once the trailer is level, you can mount a bubble level permanently on the tongue of your TrailManor to aid in future leveling. Then your trailer can be easily leveled before opening.
CLOSING YOUR TRAILMANOR All lights must be switched off and cooled before closing your TrailManor. WARNING: CEILING LIGHTS MUST BE OFF AND COOLED BEFORE LOWERING THE CEILING. 1. Switch refrigerator to 12 volt and latch refrigerator door closed. Switch on refrigerator vent fan.

(Again, the roof may spring up slightly.) Standing behind the axle on the door side, push down on roof until it latches, using the foot stirrup as needed.
CHAPTER IV THE SYSTEMS PLUMBING SANITIZING WATER SYSTEM We recommend that you completely sanitize the water system after delivery, after long periods of nonuse, and after any suspected contamination. Various commercial solutions approved for RV use are available to assist you in sanitizing the system or you can use the following: Prepare a chlorine solution using one gallon of water and 1/4 cup of household bleach (5% sodium hypochlorite solution).
TOILET Your TrailManor has a recirculating Thetford Electra Magic toilet. It is a 100% self-contained sanitation system which requires no pressure water connection or separate holding tank. An indicator gauge, located on the top back of the toilet, shows the charge level and when to empty the toilet. To prepare initial flush charge, using the bathtub hand shower, pour approximately three gallons of water into the bowl (until water reaches the charge level (C) on indicator lens).
7. Drain grey water tank (valve outside at right side of sewer hose connection). 8. Disconnect battery. Freezing temperatures may damage your battery if charge is low. If the trailer is stored open, the LP gas monitor will continue to draw current while battery is connected.
DO NOT FILL CONTAINERS TO MORE THAN 80 PERCENT OF CAPACITY. Overfilling the LP gas container can result in uncontrolled gas flow that can cause a fire or explosion. A properly filled container will contain approximately 80 percent of its volume as liquid LP-Gas. Portable fuel-burning equipment, including wood and charcoal grills and stoves, should never be used inside the recreational vehicle.
proper limit by appearance of liquid replacing vapor. At all other times, the overfill valve should be tightly closed by hand only. The main valve on the LP gas container should be tightened by hand only, using caution not to over-tighten. The valve is designed to satisfactorily close with only a reasonable amount of tightening.

NFPA Standard 1192 and The National Electrical Code. Your new TrailManor is equipped with a 30-amp heavy-duty power cord to connect from the campground outlet to your camper. The power cord is pre- wired into the distribution panel with a 30-amp overcurrent protection breaker that supplies 120 volt AC to the 12 volt DC power converter.
CONVERTER AND G.F.C.I. BREAKERS A converter uses 120-volt power and transforms this energy into 12-volt DC power. Your TrailManor has a 30-amp converter. This converter automatically switches from 120-volt source to battery when the power cord to the external source is disconnected.
BATTERY All TrailManor travel trailers are engineered to accept an auxiliary battery. Batteries mounted within the trailer must be sealed to the interior and vented to the exterior. The battery must be hooked up directly to black (positive) and white (negative) on converter using nothing less than 10 gauge wire.
CHAPTER V APPLIANCES STOVE AND/OR OVEN The TrailManor Stove has 3 burners. To operate top burners: 1. Push knob inward and turn to "on" position. 2. Hold gas match beside burner until burner lights. 3. After burner is lit, extinguish match and adjust burner to position desired.
WATER HEATER Before lighting the water heater, make certain that the fresh water system is filled with water and the air is purged from the water heater by opening all faucets until water flows steadily from each. CAUTION: Damage may result from operating water heater when system is not filled with water.
Following are the instructions for LP gas operation. Open the valve at the gas storage tank. Turn the thermostat to the 5 position. Turn the selector switch to the propane gas position. Push and hold in the safety valve and push in the igniter several times in rapid succession, for about five seconds.
REFRIGERATOR FAN Your TrailManor is equipped with a 12-volt exhaust fan to remove excess heat from the back of the refrigerator when operating with the trailer closed down. This permits proper operation of the refrigerator, on 12 volts, while towing. The switch is located to the left of the refrigerator below the kitchen sink.
CARE OF BODY COMPONENTS EXTERIOR, INTERIOR, SEALS The “Krystal Kote” aluminum exterior of your new TrailManor can be easily cleaned with a mild abrasive detergent such as Soft Scrub with bleach. Also, the interior aluminum and the seals can be cleaned the same way. You may spray the seals with a lubricant such as silicone if they appear to provide excessive drag during opening or closing.
Failure to return warranty card does not diminish your warranty rights during the warranty period. Returning the warranty card enables TrailManor to notify owners of modification updates or possible recall notices.
