INTERIOR
Dinette
The dinette is made into a bed by rising up on the
front of the table and folding the table leg up against
the bottom of the leaf. As the table is raised it will
unhook from the upper wall brackets. Once it is
unhooked it can be pulled out and the wall hinge will
let it be lowered on the supports of the dinette seats.
The backrests of the seats are placed over the table
to complete the conversion.
E
Table
To open the folding table, lift into a horizontal position
and pull the table leg down toward the vertical position
until it snaps into place, The leg is hinged at the front
edge of the table and is held against the bottom of
the table with Velcro. To extend into the double leaf
position, lift the table slightly so the leg clears the
carpet, and slide the leg and center support out toward
the center of the trailer. The leaf then unfolds and rests
against the leg support.
Airstream recommends that during travel the table be
folded up and stored. It has pressure catches to hold it
in place during travel.
Monitor Panel
The monitor panel allows you to check the amount
of fluid in your fresh water tank, black tank (tank #1),
and the gray tank (tank #2). The LP bottle gas levels
and battery charge status are also shown. The panel
operation is explained in detail later in this manual.
Battery Condition Tester
The battery condition tester, used when not plugged
into 110-volt power, will indicate the trailer batteries
condition. When they show weak or bad condition you
should take every reasonable step to conserve power
by using as few lights as possible and switching off
appliances. The battery should be charged as soon as
practical with the tow vehicle charging system, or by
connecting to shoreline 110-volt power.
Water Pump Switch
Fresh water pump switches are located on the monitor
panel and in the lavatory. Once the switch is turned on
the pump will run until the water pressure reaches about
65 psi. At this point an internal pressure switch will shut
it off. When a faucet is opened the water pressure will
drop and the pump will start to run again. The water
pump switch should be turned off when the trailer is
left unattended. Water pressure at some campgrounds
may be low. The water pump can be turned on to assist
the city water hookup pressure. Be sure there is some
water in the fresh water tank. The pump will only use
the water that is needed out of the tank to bring the
pressure up to the usual standard.

Bathroom Exhaust Fan
The round bathroom exhaust fan is in the bathroom
ceiling and is opened by pushing up on the handle
running across the fan opening.
A power lift bathroom fan may be installed in your
trailer. The switches for this fan will be located on the
forward bath wall. One switch will open the dome for
the fan and the other switch will activate the fan.
Telephone Shower Head
The telephone showerhead is designed to give
maximum flexibility in usage, and provides for water
saving techniques when using your trailer on self-
containment. It can be held in the hand and moved
about the body. Normally the best water conservation
procedure is to wet the entire body and then turn the
water off. Apply soap, lather thoroughly, and then
rinse the soap off. The telephone showerhead is also
used to fill the tub for taking a bath. When you have
finished using the shower be sure to shut the water
off at the faucet.
FIREPLACE (Option)
The fireplace is operated by a remote control device
supplied wit the unit. Please read the manual supplied
with the unit before operating.
