10.5/10.6 owners manual

Can anyone point us to were we can see the owners manual for the 10.5/10.6?

I can't find anything online other than a generic manual written for the bigger trailers.

Before we buy, we have would like to learn about the heat strip, electrical system, etc.

Thanks!

David and Holly

My advice would be to reach out to present NoBo owners for that information. No trailer manufacturer (except maybe Winnebago) makes specific manuals for their RVs any more.

Thank you Jay.

Seems there’s a good business opportunity here for someone with writing skills and interest in RVs!

LOL! I am a technical writer by profession and can tell you that RV manufacturers would never spring to spend the money it would cost to document all their various models. They have no problem spending it on beautiful marketing brochures though!

There is no such thing anymore, as a RV model-specific nor brand-specific owners manual.
Find the manual for your a/c, if that's where the heat strip is. Didn't know that NoBos had heat strips in their a/c.
As far as electrical systems, Google "the 12 Volt Side of Life".

Thank you -

I just finished “The 12 volt side of life”. Very helpful.

The 10.5/10.6 NoBos do offer a heat strip option. We haven’t purchased yet, and that’s why I was looking for info. I’m not sure how those work and if we want one.

I appreciate your reply!

I’d pay $20 to download a manual written by anyone. I bet a lot of new RV owners would, too.

I’m thinking new car/camera style manual with a line drawing of each button, panel, etc and a page with names and brief instructions.

You could make some good side money!

Like bikendan said, most new RVs come with the appliance manuals with the button descriptions, line drawings and such. If they don't, you can download them from the manufacturer.

Others here have said, and I'll repeat, this forum is better than a manual could ever be. If you have questions about a specific topic or brand, you'll find it here. It's almost like having a personal tech troubleshoot your problem!
