Hello Paul,
Welcome to the site and congrats on your recent acquisition! Yes, these vehicles are a labor of love, but well worth the effort to keep them out adventuring!

Over the years since we purchased our B190 we have collected and built up an operators manual that is now about four inches thick and it continues to grow all the time. Very little of that is in electronic form. And much of the individual manuals are specific to the systems in our camper.

Great that folks have already posted the general operators manual for you. You can also go to http://www.airstream.com then click on the "Service" drop down to get to Airstream's online "Manuals" and "Document Archive".

You'll find much of the information that you will be looking for already posted in threads on b190.com. The site's search engine works well.

Also go the the individual hardware maker's sites for the manuals for the hardware installed in your vehicle. If you still can't find answers or a manual for something specific, let us know and I'm sure one of us can send you a scanned copy of that particular manual. We all pretty much help one another for the greater good around here.

Again welcome and congrats!

Welcome to B190 life. Glad you found this site because the people that contribute here are beyond helpful by being downright friendly too! I had a problem with the hot water bypass that was put on my B190 and Skater looked at the pictures I posted recognizing there could be an installation problem. I took it back to the dealership and they corrected the problem and winterized the camper at no further cost since the mistake was theirs and apologized for an extra trip.

Share your adventures and issues(there will come). I miss camping so much that I often just start up the camper and drive it around the block a few times and park her back. Single digits the next few days and just trying to stay warm by the wood stove here in the mountains of NC.
