Maybe call Camping World ?? Or some of the other local RV sales places.
At the very least, make sure to drain all the water from the the W/S tank and run the system to blow all the air out of the lines. The tank won't freeze on you but those skinny little lines could get slushy and jam up.
The big problem if you use the w/s washer that only has water in it in below freezing temps is that water that is sprayed on the windshield (if it sprays at all) is such a thin layer that it will freeze on contact, blocking your vision. I always let the motor warm up with the defrost setting on high fan so that the windshield is heated as much as possible.
