Section 4: Vehicle Operation
For prolonged travel to a service center, be sure to stop and check the disposition
of the leveling jacks every so often to make sure they are not extending.
Recommended Fluid
The leveling system is pre-filled and primed to operate direct from the manufacturer. Type
"A" automatic transmission fluid (ATF) will work. ATF with Dexron III or Mercon 5* or
blend of both is recommended by the manufacturer.
Troubleshooting information, error codes, and manual override of the power jacks can be
found in the Lippert Level UP® Motor home Leveling Owner's Manual found in your war-
ranty packet, or contact Lippert Customer Service or your dealer for additional help.
Emergency Stopping
Always carry road flares or reflective warning signs. Pull off the roadway as far as possible
for emergency stopping. Turn ON your vehicle hazard warning flashers. If traveling at
night, use three red warning indicators such as flares, reflectors or lanterns as required by the
Uniform Vehicle Code and Model Traffic Ordinance as follows:
Place the first warning indicator on the traffic side of the recreation vehicle, directed at
1.
the nearest approaching traffic.
2.
Place the second warning indicator 100 feet behind the recreation vehicle in the center
of the lane and toward approaching traffic.
3.
Place the third warning indicator 100 feet in front of the recreation vehicle in the center
of the lane and away from the traffic approaching from behind.
™ NOTE: Curves and/or hills may affect the safe placement of warning indica-
tors.
For personal safety, always stand off the road and out of the way of traffic.
