That's OK. If you lose your key, ask one of your RV neighbors to open the compartment for you.

Most RVs use a CH751 key for the storage compartments. This means your key will probably fit 99% of the RVs in existence.

You can buy differently keyed tumblers if you want, but that can get expensive.

Worse - my dealer told me that the door lock key is also the same for most RVs, but at least the deadbolt key is different. I have not confirmed this though, but that is a bit worrisome.

On the other hand...

not labeling the switches is a bit reminiscent of classic German automobiles, some of which have non-labelled switches. I once bought my son a 1985 Audi (I bought it cheap) for his high-school graduation present. The owner's manual was long-gone, and it was fun trying to discover what the several switches on the console did.

So perhaps they are using German styling in their RVs?

nah... it just costs less not labeling switches.
