Many campgrounds provide less than 30 amp service,
and your hookup may blow their fuse or circuit breaker�
If this happens, reduce the load, replace the fuse, or
reset the breaker�
WARNING
A reverse polarity condition is detected if the
cordset's LED illuminates RED when connected
to a power source. If this occurs, do not plug
the cord into your Airstream. Reverse polarity is
an UNSAFE condition that could result in bodily
harm. It can also damage electrical components.
This condition exists when the power pedestal is
improperly wired.

Hitch/Coupler

The EZ-Latch coupler features a simple-to-use latching
mechanism� Hooking up is as easy as dropping the
coupler on to your hitch ball� Simply make sure that the
coupler is properly lined up with the ball, then lower
the coupler� The coupler will automatically open and
latch into place when lowered onto the hitch ball� To
disengage coupler, pull up on latch and raise coupler
off of hitch ball� Return the coupler latch to the latched
position to ensure that coupler is ready to be latched
again� The coupler features a strong composite
handle, If the handle does get damaged or becomes
missing, the coupler is still completely operational
until the handle can be replaced� Replacement parts
can be purchased through your Airstream Dealer� See
additional information included in your owner's packet�

Axle and Running Gear Assembly

Each Dexter Torflex® rubber torsion axle is aligned
during manufacturing, and double-checked on
a random basis� Alignment after delivery is the
customer's responsibility�
Hitting chuck holes or rough railroad tracks while
traveling straight will only cause misalignment after
the tire has struck such objects many times� Of
course, a deep enough hole can affect the alignment
immediately�
The worst culprit is a curb because they are normally
struck at an angle� Rear axles are occasionally
damaged when people are attempting to park beside a
curb while backing up their trailer�
The trailer axle(s) is bent upward in the middle� This
bend is normal and is how the camber is obtained�
Also, toe-in is built into the axle by very slight bends in
the axle tube on each end�
2024 Classic
Tire wear indicates misalignment� Check with your
dealer for the nearest location with the proper
equipment to correct the trailer's alignment�

Nev-R-Lube Drums/Bearings

Dexter's Nev-R-Lube bearings are comprised of
opposed tapered roller bearing cones sealed inside a
precision-ground, one-piece, double-cup arrangement�
These bearings are designed with a small amount
of axial end-play� The end-play is essential to the
longevity of the bearing's service life;

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Your Classic is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)� Tire pressure information
from sensors within the tires are displayed on the
CZone screen as well as on the included TPMS
monitor� A repeater is installed in the trailer to help
boost the signal from the tire sensors to the monitor�
Tire pressures will lower in the evening as the ambient
air temperatures decrease� In cold conditions, we
suggest shutting the display off until the ambient
temperature rises, or you begin driving again� Any
time you physically move a tire to a different position,
such as changing or rotating tires, you will also need
to move the sensor configuration on the monitor and
CZone;
see Updating TPMS Monitor and CZone©
on page 8-9
for further instructions� The included
spare tire is also equipped with a sensor� Additional
information and tips can be found in your owner's
packet and in the Maintenance section of this manual�
The included TPMS monitor displays real-time tire
pressure and temperatures along with audible and
visual alerts� The monitor continually sequences
through the sensors displaying each tires pressure and
temperature� If an alarm sounds, an icon will blink near
the bottom of the screen and the tire in question will
have its pressure or temperature blinking on the display
screen� There will also be text indicating what the issue
is such as fast leak, low pressure, or high temperature�
If you want to see a specific tire reading, press the
plus or minus button on the side of the monitor to scroll
through the tire sensors� Slide the switch on the right
side of the display up to turn the display on and down
to shut it off� If the display is plugged into a constant
12v source, you must unplug the display to turn it off�
NOTE
Indoor/outdoor thermometers could interfere with
the signal of the sensors.
