Section 4: Vehicle Operation
Camera/monitor system aids in the use of, but does not replace ve-
hicle side/rear-view mirrors.
Objects in camera/monitor view are closer than they appear. When
backing up, proceed cautiously and be prepared to stop.
Campsite Hook-Up
Refer to Electrical Systems section before connecting the shore line power cord
(when using full hook-up) OR before starting the generator or operating the ve-
hicle on 12-volt power when dry camping.
Refer to Fuel & Propane System section before using the LP system. Open the LP
gas tank valve (if so equipped) slowly. There may be air in the lines and five to
thirty seconds of time is needed to bleed air before LP vapor fills the lines.
Refer to Plumbing Systems section before connecting the fresh water supply or
turning ON the water pump or water heater.
When using full hook-up, connect the sewer hose to the campsite sewer hook-up.
If applicable, start the refrigerator and the cooling or heating system.
™ NOTE: For extended dry camping, management of all your resources is es-
sential. Check your battery levels and conserve battery power, use it spar-
ingly.
Electric Rear Stabilizer Control (if so equipped)
The (2) electrically operated stabilizers are located at the rear of the
coach, and when extended, will keep the motor home from rocking side
to side. The control has a power switch and a switch to extend/retract the
stabilizers, and is typically located inside the coach stepwell.
To use the system, press the power switch to the "ON". To extend the
stabilizers, press and hold the extend/retract switch in the extend position
until the stabilizers are fully extended. When fully extended, the LED
light at the bottom of the panel marked "EXTENDED" will light up.
To retract the stabilizers, press and hold the extend/retract switch in the
retract position. The LED light will go off and the stabilizers will retract.
Turn the power switch OFF.
If the jacks are down and the vehicle is started and put in gear, an alarm will sound to let you
know the jacks must be retracted.
Do not move the motor home while the jacks are still in contact with the
ground or extended. Damage to the vehicle could occur.
Bigfoot/Quadra Leveling System (if so equipped)
Your recreation vehicle may be equipped with a 4-point automatic leveling system. This
control panel is typically located in the stepwell of the motor home or at the Command
Center Panel inside the RV.
The following is an overview of the system and to be used as a quick reference. For detailed
operating and safety instructions, refer to the manufacturer owner's manual. Famil-
iarize yourself with the operating and safety instructions prior to using the leveling system.
