INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

The Owner’s Manual for your new Airstream Touring

Coach is designed to respond to the most frequent

inquiries regarding the operation, function, and care of

the many systems that make modern motorhoming a

joy.

The Airstream Touring Coach is integrated into

a Sprinter Van, designed and manufactured by

Mercedes-Benz. Operation of the Sprinter, its engine,

power train, and other related components are

discussed in the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Operator’s

literature are warrantied by Mercedes-Benz or their

suppliers.

Airstream realizes our customers possess varying

degrees of expertise in the area of maintaining and

repairing the appliances in their touring coach. For this

reason, the service and trouble-shooting information

found in this manual is directed toward those with

average mechanical skills. We also realize you may be

more familiar in one area than you are in another. Only

you know your capabilities and limitations.

We want you to use this manual, and hope you will nd

the information contained in it helpful; however, should

you ever feel you may be “getting in over your head,”

please see your dealer to have the repairs made.

The operation and care of component parts such

as, refrigerator, furnace, water heater and others are

briey explained in this manual.

All information, illustrations, and specications

contained in this manual are based on the latest

product information available at the time of publication

approval. Airstream reserves the right to make

changes if and when new materials and/or production

techniques are developed that can improve the quality

of its product, or when material substitutions are

necessary due to availability.

Safety Precautions

Many things can be construed as safety related, but

the most important is your common sense� If you are

careless with matches, cigarettes, ammable material,

or any other hazardous material, you surely realize

your potential for accidents is greatly increased�

You will nd many safety recommendations in this

section and throughout the manual� The following

recommendations are the ones we consider to be the

most important�

Weight Distribution

Touring coach’s have fresh water and waste water

tanks, a water heater, and storage areas� It gives

you great exibility in loading. With exibility comes

responsibility� If you want to load down all the storage

compartments, the amount of uids may have to be

reduced� It is a trade off so plan wisely� Distribute

your additional cargo as evenly as possible with the

heaviest objects located as low as possible�

Do you really want to carry a full fresh water tank to

a RV park 1,000 miles away and then hook up to a

city water supply? Even if you’re going to a remote

area, you can usually ll your water tank shortly before

entering the area� Just reducing your load by 10

gallons of water lets you carry an additional 30 pounds

of cargo�

Tire Safety

Properly maintained tires improve the steering,

stopping, traction, and load-carrying capability of your

vehicle� Refer to Section 9 - Maintenance for tire care

and safety information�

Appliances and Equipment

The appliances (stove) and equipment (hot water

heater, furnace, generator, etc�) typically operate on

liqueed petroleum (LP) gas. LP gas is ammable and

is contained under high pressure� Improper use may

result in a re and/or explosion. Make sure to follow

all instructions and warnings in this manual as well as

those in the specic owner’s manuals of the appliances

and equipment�

Generator Safety

Do not operate the generator in an enclosed building or

in a partly enclosed area, such as a garage� Be sure to

follow all instructions and warnings in this manual and

the generator manufacturer’s manual� Refer to Section

5 - Interior for generator information�

Mold

Mold and mold spores exist throughout indoor and

outdoor environments� There is no practical way

to eliminate all mold and mold spores in the indoor

environment; however, the way to control indoor

mold growth is to control moisture� Refer to Section

3 - General Information for information on controlling

condensation and molds�

Chemical Sensitivity and Ventilation

Chemical Sensitivity

Immediately after the purchase of your new

recreational vehicle and sometimes after it has been

closed up for an extended period of time, you may

notice a strong odor and/or experience a chemical

sensitivity� This is not a defect in your recreational

vehicle� Like your home, there are many different

products used in the construction of recreational

vehicles, such as carpet, linoleum, plywood, insulation,

upholstery, etc� Formaldehyde is also the by-product of

combustion and numerous household products, such

as some paints, coatings, and cosmetics� However,

recreational vehicles are much smaller than your home

and therefore, the exchange of air inside a recreational

vehicle is signicantly less than in a home. These

products, when new or when exposed to elevated

temperatures and/or humidity, may off-gas different

chemicals, including formaldehyde� This off-gassing,

in combination with the minimal air exchange, may

cause you to experience irritation of the eyes, nose,

and throat, as well as sometimes headache, nausea,

and a variety of asthma-like symptoms� Elderly persons

and young children, as well as anyone with a history

of asthma, allergies, or lung problems, may be more

susceptible to the effects of off-gassing�

Safety

2024 Interstate 24 2-3

Formaldehyde

Formaldehyde is a naturally occurring substance and

is an important chemical used widely by industries

to manufacture building materials and numerous

household products� It is also a by-product of

combustion and certain other natural processes�

Thus, it may be present inside the touring coach�

Ventilation of the unit normally reduces the exposure to

a comfortable level�

Trace levels of formaldehyde are released from

smoking, cooking, use of soaps and detergents, such

as carpet shampoos and cosmetics, and many other

household products� Some people are very sensitive to

formaldehyde while others may not have any reaction

to the same levels of formaldehyde� Amounts released

decrease over time�

Your Airstream touring coach was manufactured using

low formaldehyde-emitting (LFE) wood products,

the use of which is typical in the recreation vehicle

industry� Formaldehyde has an important role in

the adhesives used to bind wood products used in

recreation vehicles� The wood products in your coach

are designed to emit formaldehyde at or lower than

industry guidelines and should not produce symptoms

in most individuals�

While LFE wood products typically do not emit

formaldehyde at a level that would cause symptoms

in most individuals, it is possible, though not likely,

for symptoms to occur when the touring coach is

not properly ventilated� Ventilation is an essential

requirement for touring coach use for many reasons�

Any effects of formaldehyde can be greatly reduced

by actions such as opening windows, opening roof

vents, running the air conditioner, or some combination

thereof� In addition, the emission of formaldehyde by

these products naturally decreases rapidly over time�

Airstream strongly suggests you take measures to

properly ventilate your touring coach on a regular

basis� If you have any questions with respect to proper

ventilation of your touring coach, please do not hesitate

to contact your dealer or Airstream�

Ventilation

To reduce or lessen exposure to chemicals from off-

gassing, it is of utmost importance that you ventilate

your recreational vehicle� Ventilation should occur

frequently after purchase and at times when the

temperatures and humidity are elevated� Remember,

off-gassing is accelerated by heat and humidity� Open

windows, exhaust vents, and doors� Operate ceiling

and/or other fans, roof AC, and use a fan to force stale

air out and bring fresh air in. Decreasing the ow of

air by sealing the recreational vehicle increases the

formaldehyde level in the vehicle’s indoor air�

Do Not Smoke

It is recommended you do not smoke inside your

recreational vehicle� In addition to causing damage

to your recreational vehicle, tobacco smoke releases

formaldehyde and other toxic chemicals�

Medical Advice

Questions regarding the effects of formaldehyde on

your health should be submitted to your doctor or local

health department�

Alarms and Detectors

Parts of this section on the combination Smoke/

Carbon Monoxide Detector is a reprint of the manual

included with the device and provided to you in the

Airstream owner’s briefcase� Please read, understand,

and follow all aspects of the complete manual before

activating and operating the Smoke/Carbon Monoxide

Detector� If you have not received the manual, contact

your dealership to obtain one, or contact Airstream

Customer Relations at 937-596-6111�
