antenna lowered. Close the entrance door and retract the steps.

hook-up.

Campsite Parking

If the campground does not have drive through sites, it is recommended to stop
near the site and inspect it for slopes or uneven areas. Carefully back into the
site. Watch for low-hanging limbs, posts, large rocks or other obstacles. Back
in so the site is on the driver's left. This will enable the driver to watch the rear
of the unit. Maneuver the vehicle into position before backing into the site.
Back up slowly, using the side mirrors as a guide or with the assistance of
another person outside, guiding the parking procedure.
Place the tow vehicle in park and turn off the ignition. Block all of the trailer
wheels with wheel chocks. Side to side leveling should be done by using shims
under the tires on the low side of the unit after it has been backed into the site.
This must be done before disconnecting the trailer from the tow vehicle. Lower
the stabilizing jacks, if installed. Connect the 120 volt shore power to the unit.
Open the Propane gas valves at the Propane tanks. Connect the fresh water
supply and sanitize the water systems (see Chapter 11), if necessary. Connect
the waste drain hose to the sewer hookup. Start the refrigerator, water heater,
and furnace, if needed. Light the oven pilot light, if applicable. Remember that
the refrigerator will not operate efficiently if the unit is not level.
