Your unit is equipped with electric entrance door steps. When the power switch for the steps is in the on position, simply
open the door and the steps will open. Detailed operation for the electrical entrance door steps is as follows:
1. Turn the step power switch on.
2. Close the door. The step should retract and lock into the up position.
3. Open the door. The step should extend and lock into the down position.
4. Turn the step power switch off. The step should remain in the extended position when the door is closed.
Turning off the power with the step retracted will hold the step in a retracted position as well.
5. With the step extended, turn the step power switch off and close the entrance door. Turn the vehicle ignition
on. The ignition override system will go into effect, and the step will automatically retract.
6. Turn the vehicle ignition off and open the door. The step will extend and lock in the down position.
If the door is opened and closed without allowing the step to fully extend and lock in the 'DOWN' position, the
step will retract and lock in the 'UP' position. When the door is reopened, the step will not extend. The power
switch must be turned on for the step to extend. This feature is only operative the first time that door is
opened after the vehicle ignition is turned off. When the ignition is on, the step will always activate with the
door movement, regardless of the step power switch position. If the vehicle is driven with the step in the
extended position, there is the possibility of causing major damage to both the step and the vehicle.

Exterior Lights

Always check the operation of all headlights, turn signals, and clearance lights prior to traveling.
Replace any exterior light bulbs or fixtures as needed to maintain DOT requirements and safety.
When replacing any bulbs, do not use a different bulb number, even if the bulb looks the same as the old one.
Doing so may cause overheating and damage to the light fixture or lens.
Turn power off to the lights to avoid possible short circuits, blown fuses, and burns while removing and replacing bulbs or
lights. Depending on the year and model of your coach, it may be equipped with LED light fixtures with the lights
embedded into the light housing. These types of fixtures may require the replacement of the entire light instead of the
bulb only. When replacing halogen bulbs, do not touch the bulb, as the oil from your hands will reduce the life of the bulb.
Headlights
The coach may have headlights installed that are atmospherically vented, so condensation may occur in these headlight
assemblies. Under normal driving conditions with the headlights turned on, the condensation will dissipate, allowing it to
escape through the vent.

Maintenance

It is necessary to keep exterior lights clean, as dirty lights have diminished output and reduced visibility. To clean your
exterior lights, use a mild soap designed for automotive car washing. Avoid using harsh cleaners, abrasive products, and
petroleum-based products or other chemicals.
