01 2026 Open Trail General Information

About This Manual: 

Carefully read through this manual to understand how everything in your Tiffin Open Trail works. 

The instructions included are meant to serve as a guide and in no way extend the responsibilities of Tiffin Motorhomes beyond the standard written warranty. The descriptions, illustrations, and specifications in this manual were correct at the time of printing and Tiffin Motorhomes reserves the right to change specifications or design without notice, and without incurring the obligation to install the same on products previously manufactured.  

Many of the instruction sheets and manuals for the various appliances inside your Tiffin Open Trail have been incorporated into this manual for your convenience. 

Delivery: 

Throughout the entire manufacturing process, your Tiffin Open Trail has been regularly inspected by our qualified personnel to ensure that you receive the finest product of the highest quality. However, the final inspection at our factory is not the last one. The pre-delivery inspection and system check that your dealer performs are the final inspections before you receive your new Tiffin Open Trail. Your dealer is also available to assist you in understanding the warranties and completing the necessary forms to activate the warranties for the various appliances and accessories installed in your Tiffin Open Trail.

Dealer Responsibilities: 

1. A pre-delivery inspection and systems check is performed to ensure a thorough inspection of the Tiffin Open Trail and the proper operation of all factory-installed components. 

2. A customer walk-through is performed to familiarize the buyer with the Tiffin Open Trail, its systems and components, and their proper and safe operation. 

3. Delivery of the Owner’s Information Package, which contains warranty cards and registrations for the vehicle and all factory-installed components from other vendors and suppliers to Tiffin Motorhomes. The detailed operation and maintenance instructions on these components are also included in this package. 

4. Assisting the customer in completing the registration forms to avoid loss of warranty coverage. The dealer will review the limited-warranty provisions with the customer to stress the importance of completing the warranty cards and registration forms for the components in the Tiffin Open Trail to enable the manufacturers to receive them within the prescribed time limits. 

5. Providing the customer with information regarding warranty and non-warranty work on the vehicle and its separately warranted components. 

Customer Responsibilities: 

The customer is responsible for regular and proper maintenance of the Tiffin Open Trail. Properly maintaining your Tiffin Open Trail will prevent conditions arising from neglect that are not covered by your Tiffin Motorhomes limited warranty. The maintenance guidelines in this manual and any other applicable manuals must be followed. It is your responsibility and obligation to return the vehicle to an authorized dealer for repairs and service. 

To assist you in avoiding problems with your Tiffin Open Trail, Tiffin Motorhomes recommends that you do the following: 

1. Read the warranty. Go over it thoroughly with your dealer to make sure you understand all the terms and conditions of the warranty. 

2. Inspect the Open Trail; do not accept delivery until you have gone through the motorhome with the authorized Tiffin Motorhomes dealer.  

3. Ask questions about anything you do not fully understand about your Open Trail. Tiffin Motorhomes is here to serve you and ensure that you have all the information necessary for the safe and enjoyable use of your new Tiffin Open Trail. 

4. When you are taking delivery, set an appointment for adjustments. This appointment must be within two weeks after you accept delivery. 

5. You are responsible for using your Tiffin Open Trail in a responsible, safe manner. Take the time to familiarize yourself with the proper operation of the unit before you attempt to use it.
