Exterior

Windows

Clean your touring coach windows the same way you
clean the windows in your home� Clean the seals with
a damp cloth and mild detergent every 3 to 6 months�
Do not use strong solvents, as they will damage the
seals� A coat of natural silicone lubricant applied after
the seal has dried will keep it flexible. Spread the
lubricant evenly with a brush or finger, working it into
the surface� This is a good practice for all rubber seals
in your touring coach�
Failure to properly clean and lubricate the window
seals could result in the window sticking to the
jamb and should only be released by a qualified
technician trained in the procedure. Do not force,
pry, or apply great pressure to open the window.
Failure to heed this warning may cause the window
to shatter and/or cause personal injury.
For replacement of a damaged window, contact an
Airstream Service Center�

Exterior Shower

All units are equipped with an exterior shower� This
shower consists of a shower hose, shower head, and
water valve inside a lockable exterior door� Water is
supplied by the pump or city water hookup� The shower
head/hose assembly is stored inside the rear doors� To
use: insert the hose into the wall inlet, pull back slightly
to verify it is securely connected� Press the spout
button and rotate the faucet handles to the desired
temperature� To remove hose assembly, hold back
the water inlet fitting while simultaneously pulling out
on the hose fitting. Be sure to press the spout button
to relieve any residual pressure before removing the
hose�

WARNING

Exterior Sliding Step

The curbside sliding door has a sliding step with auto
retract, step out warning buzzer, and a lock extended
switch located just inside the sliding door� Please read,
understand, and instruct passengers of the following
operational and safety information pertaining to the
step�
The step extends and retracts as the sliding door is
opened and closed with the engine off and step lock
extend switch off� The step retracts automatically and
will not extend when the engine is started to prevent
damage while in transit�
If the step does not retract fully, a warning buzzer will
sound� The vehicle should not be driven if the step fails
to retract completely� This buzzer is controlled by a 10-
amp fuse�
An undercarriage light, extending from wheel to wheel,
has been added for your convenience� This step light
can be turned on/off or dimmed using the multiplex
panel, located just inside the sliding door, labeled
"under coach"�

Lock Extended Switch

To use the lock extended switch, turn the engine off,
open the door to extend the step, and turn the switch
on� The step will now remain extended while opening
and closing the door� Turn the switch off to return the
step to normal operating mode�
If you forget to turn the lock extended switch off before
starting the engine, the step will retract when the
engine is started; however, it will not extend when the
engine is turned off and the door is opened� To reset
the step, turn the engine off and the step lock extended
switch off with the door closed�
