To Extend Slideout Room
WARNING
Keep all persons clear of the slideout
room and moving parts while extending or
retracting. Do not occupy the slideout
room while it is being extended or
retracted. Failure to observe can result in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE
Check to be sure the exterior storage
compartment doors below the slideout
room extension are closed before
extending or retracting the room to avoid
possible damage to the doors.
NOTE: We recommend that you KEEP THE
ENGINE RUNNING WHILE
EXTENDING OR RETRACTING
SLIDEOUT ROOMS so the engine
SLIDEOUT ROOMS AND LEVELING
alternator can provide maximum power
for proper operation of the slideout
mechanisms.
Before Extending!
• Level the coach and set the Parking Brake. An
interlock relay system will then provide
power to the slideout control switches.
• Release the Slideout Locks (if equipped). See
information at the beginning of this section.
• Make sure exterior compartment doors are
closed so that they will not interfere with
slideout operation.
• Check inside and outside the vehicle to make
sure that there are no people who could be
harmed or obstacles that could cause damage
due to room extension.
• If the slideout room has a couch or other
furniture, make sure no people or pets are
seated on them until the room has been fully
extended.
Extend Procedure:
See "Before Extending!" before proceeding.
• Start the engine so the alternator can provide
maximum power for proper operation of
slideout mechanisms.
• Be sure Parking Brake is set.
• Insert the Safety Lock key and turn to activate
slideout room control switch.
• Press the Slideout Room "EXTEND/OUT"
switch and hold until the room is fully
extended, then release the switch.
NOTE: If your model is equipped with electric
slideout locks and the room will not
extend, check to be sure the locks are
fully released. Press the "unlock" side of
the switch for a few seconds, then try
extending again.
