I found these two warranty statements when googling, Do they have any relevance today?

'This product is designed for recreational use and short term occupancy only. It is not designed or intended to be used as permanent housing. Use of this product for long term or permanent occupancy may lead to premature deterioration of interior finishes, fabrics, carpeting, drapes, and appliances and fixtures. Damage or deterioration due to long term occupancy is not considered normal, and will under the terms of the warranty constitute misuse, abuse, or neglect, thereby reducing your warranty protection. Before considering this motor home for long term occupancy, consult the relevant sections in this manual.'

'Your motor home was designed primarily for recreational use and short term occupancy. If you intend to occupy the motor home for an extended period, you should understand that the additional wear well cause premature deterioration of structure, interior finishes, fabrics, carpeting, drapes, appliances and fixtures. You should also be prepared to deal with condensation and the humid conditions that may be encountered. The relatively small volume and tight, compact construction of modern recreational vehicles mean that normal living activities of even a few occupants will lead to rapid saturation of the air, and the appearance of visible moisture, especially in cold weather.

Just as moisture collects on the outside of a glass of cold water during humid weather, moisture can condense on the inside surfaces of your motor home during use in cold weather when humidity of the interior air is high.

Water vapor will condense on the inside of the windows and walls as moisture, or in cold weather as frost or ice. It may also condense out of sight within the walls or the ceiling where it will manifest itself as stained panels. Appearance of these conditions indicates a condensation problem. When you recognize the signs of excessive moisture and condensation, you should take action to minimize their effects'

That's why I keep an oil heater running at lowish temps on thermostat in winter Wink
