The steering wheel can be moved to allow additional room for entering and exiting the
driver's seat, as well as for selected driving positions. Operate the tilt mechanism by lifting
the smaller lever on the left side of the steering column just below the directional signal
lever. Move the steering wheel to the desired position and release the lever to secure.
Never attempt to adjust the steering wheel while the vehicle is
in motion. Loss of vehicle control could result.
The monitor for the back up camera is located in the dash. It will turn on when the gear
selector is placed in reverse, or when you engage its power button. This is integrated into
the dash radio. It will allow you to see behind your vehicle as you back up or park. The
camera is located on the rear cap of the coach.
Located near your back up monitor is the media link center. Use this "quick" connect for
external auxiliary devices such as an IPOD and digital camera. Select AUX1 on the radio
via SRC button. For complete instructions and available connections, see the products
owners manual.
The climate controls in your motorhome are similar to the controls in many cars. You can
adjust the fan speed, cool/warm air mixture, and climate settings, with the turn of a knob.
Your climate control console includes settings for maximum A/C, normal A/C, vent, floor
heat, a mixture of floor and dash heat, and defrost. Setting controls to maximum A/C
circulates and cools interior air. Setting controls to normal A/C conditions outdoor air.
This chassis climate control is not intended to heat or cool the entire motorhome.
The parking brake is located under that dash to the left of the steering wheel. To set press
down on the foot petal. To release, pull on the parking brake lever.
Be sure the service brakes are engaged whenever applying or releasing
the parking brakes.
The leveling jack control pad is located on the drivers left side panel. The parking brake
must be applied and the ignition system must be on before engaging the leveling jacks.
Be sure that the motor coach is on level ground before beginning to level the coach.
Using the control pad, push the ON/OFF switch pad. The system is now operational and
the electronic level lights will become active. Push the AUTO switch pad to begin the
automatic leveling cycle. To retract the jacks in automatic mode, press the RETRACT ALL
JACKS button. The jacks will then start to retract and return to the full retract position.
In automatic mode, the RETRACT ALL JACKS button needs only to be
pressed once and released for the jacks to fully retract.
If further adjustment is necessary, please refer to the leveling jack system owners manual
provided with your motorhome.
• Be sure to park the coach on solid, level ground.
• Clear all jack landing locations of debris and obstructions. Locations should be also
free of depressions.
• When parking the coach on extremely soft surfaces, utilize load distribution pads
under each jack.
