Chapter 13: Slideouts

Newmar pushed the RV industry forward by introducing the first flat floor slideouts. We continue to
lead today with our patented flat floor slideout designs. The same insight and experience that helped
us improve slideout functionality has also helped us improve slideout quality. This category provides
information about your flat floor, bedroom, kitchen, wardrobe, and full wall slideouts. Under each sub-
category, you will have access to information about each Slideout in your Newmar coach.
The following warnings may be posted in the coach overhead compartment, in a cabinet, or on the
wall next to the corresponding slideouts.
Before operating any slideout, read and follow the posted warning labels.
Electric Bedroom Slideouts
The operating switch for the bedroom slideout is usually located on the bedroom wall. If there is a full wall slideout on
the driver side of the coach, the switch may be located on the wall that separates the bedroom from the living room.
In order to operate the bedroom slideout with the required voltage levels, batteries should be fully charged, the
generator should be powered on, or the coach should be connected to shore power. This maintains the voltage levels
required to operate the slideouts.
Due to the slideout safety feature commonly referred to as 'ignition lockout', the operation of your slideout will be
prohibited under one or more of the following conditions:
• Partial slideout operation is prohibited when the key is in the accessory or run position, allowing the slideout to
retract, but not extend.
• Total slideout operation is prohibited when the module receives an ignition signal when the key is in the run
position. However, the slideout will operate in the accessory position, because it does not receive an ignition signal.
• Total slideout operation is prohibited when the ignition switch is in either the accessory or run position.
• Total slideout operation is prohibited when the park brake is not set.
• The disabling of the slideout is based on the individual slideout control module programming and the ignition
switch circuit signal.
Once the appropriate safety feature conditions are met and the path of the slideout is unobstructed both inside and
outside of the coach, follow the operating instructions posted in your coach.
