Summary:
CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH SECTION 6.2.6, "MARKING OF ALTERNATIVE EXITS," AS REQUIRED BY THE ANSI/NFPA 1192 STANDARD ON RECREATIONAL VEHICLES. THE DINETTE ALTERNATE EXIT/EMERGENCY EGRESS WINDOW IS NOT IDENTIFIED BY AN EXIT LABEL AND RED EGRESS LATCHES. THIS WINDOW IS USED TO EXIT THE MOTOR HOME IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION AND MUST BE CLEARLY IDENTIFIED. |
