Section 4: Vehicle Operation
Rotating the tires:
TPMS sensors – DO NOT MOVE WITH THE TIRES!
The TPMS sensor on the front tire (on either side of the trailer) STAYS at
the front tire position when rotating tires.
The TPMS sensor on the middle tire (on either side of a 3-axle trailer)
STAYS at the middle tire position when rotating tires.
The TPMS sensor on the rear tire (on either side of the trailer) STAYS
at the rear tire position when rotating tires (on both dual and triple axle
trailers).
This guarantees tire pressures displayed on the touchscreen are accurate-
ly showing the correct tire locations on the trailer.
The TPMS System comes with sensors that screw on to the valve stem of each tire. The sen-
sors are programmed according to their tire position on the trailer, and not to each individual
tire. Tire sensors are paired to your phone using the Bluetooth Smartphone App.
Changing A Tire
Do not use the stabilizer jacks to support the recreational vehicle while
under the vehicle or changing tires. The stabilizer jacks are designed as
a stabilizing system only. Do not use the stabilizer jacks as a jack or in
conjunction with a jack.
Never raise the recreational vehicle by placing the jack under the axle,
springs or any attachment parts.
Failure to comply with these guidelines could result in damage to the ve-
hicle and risk causing serious injury or death.
When replacing tires:
Be sure to use only tires that are rated for recreation vehicle use. The use
of passenger tires should be avoided. The load rating/range embossed on
the sidewall of passenger tires must be de-rated accordingly; they do not
have the same load capability as tires that are specifically identified for
recreational vehicle use. Failure to use tires that are properly matched to
your recreational vehicle could lead to premature tire wear or less than
optimum trailer handling.
Be sure to replace it with a tire of the same size and specifications (refer
to the Federal Certification label).
If you experience a flat tire on your recreational vehicle while driving, gradually decrease
your speed and move the recreational vehicle to a safe place on the side of the road.
1.
Keep the recreational vehicle attached to the tow vehicle. Block the tire on the opposite
side of the recreational vehicle from the tire you are changing.
2.
Loosen the wheel lug on the tire you are changing before jacking up the vehicle. DO
NOT remove the lug nuts; only loosen them for ease of removal when the tire is off
the ground.
3.
Locate the mainframe rail of the trailer (it spans from front-to-back just inside the tires).
