That's VERY broad question!! Anything in particular?
As far as I know that's not a "How to" book or video. There are tons of videos or online info on about very appliance you have onboard or ask away here.

Best to start with the owners manual and go through it and try everything, then see what questions you have left.

We have a 2013 36RL which is similar to your RW. The manual is a good start point, I will be glad to answer any specific questions you have.

What owner's manual? I never received one with my Redwood, just a binder full of information on everything installed in it.

You won't find a manual specific to you model. Mine came with what I suspect came in all of them, a 3" binder full all the materials for the items installed & 1/4-1/2" thick "Welcome to owning a Redwood" booklet with very little if any useful information, very generic. You won't find a manual similar to autos for any specific RV, they change models & floorplans too often to ever keep up with that type manual.
Speaking of auto manuals! Just bought a new Jeep, looked everywhere for the owners manual, called dealer & was told they don't have them any more, it's built into the navigation system, just scroll through the menu to find/use the manual. So much for taking it in & browsing through it in your easy chair to learn all the features.

I noticed that too on my Jeep Danny. I too like to carry around the manual and read it when I can. Dory's new BMW is the same way, however it is also online and most of it is video so we can watch it from an easy chair with a tablet or laptop. At one point ROG had hoped to do that for Redwood, but it is a ton of effort and commitment.

Sorry for the word manual, it was a thin users guide, about a half inch thick wire wound guide, generic but with some info, the information in the binder was better
