My socket is a pretty conventional socket that does need an adapter.

I'm assuming a little bit here because we are newbies this fall ourselves.  I believe the stove top does not have an integral ignite r. Or ours doesn't work, we have a 2011 - 177.

We have a 2014 178, and you need to light the stove with a long match or gas lighter.  I think turning the dial to Light just means it's the maximum amount of gas to catch from your flame.  It doesn't have a self-spark system to light it.
Happy tails and trails!

No electric lighting action, turn to the "light" area nad light with a long/BBQ lighter..

Wow! Your dealer gets an D-.
Ours explained details like stove lighting and provided a lighter in the drawer under the stove.

Followed the Winterization instructions Wow - OK I an a NEWBEE and it was great to have the fantastic instructions. At least R-Pod marks on the side of the trailer the location of the Drain Plugs.

Thank you again for the great instructions - It only took 1.5 hours and included reading the instructions several times..

Huh, sounds like my afternoon.  Smile

From another newbie, thanks again.

I talked to a couple other RVers that I know and they both said "what low point drain?"

Great idea on the IM.  The hot water tank appears to have two drains underneath and I'm assuming the one towards the rear is the drain.  I unscrewed that (rear cap) but water just trickles out and I think the little white gasket (like the one for fresh water) is stuck in the hole.  Best way to remove?
Muchas Gracias!
