Before Retracting Slideout Room
If it has rained recently before you retract the
slideout room, we recommend using the hydrau-
lic leveling system to lean the coach and drain off
any excess water possibly remaining on the roof
before retracting. Lean the coach slightly to the
left (driver's side) as shown by raising both right
side jacks to let excess water flow away from the
rooftop weatherseal and toward the outside of the
slide-out roof.
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
To Retract Slideout Room:
CAUTION
Although there is an awning over the
roof of the slideout room, there is a
possibility of debris getting onto the
roof. Because the slideout roof is
drawn into the interior of the coach
when retracted, be sure there is no
debris, such as excessive dirt, tree
seeds, twigs, leaves, etc. on the roof
before retracting.
• Remove all items from the coach living room
floor. Turn leveling system on to provide
power to the slideout control switch.
• Press slideout switch and hold until room is
fully retracted, then release the switch.
General Slideout Care
• Wipe outer seals occasionally with talc or
303 brand protectant for smooth quiet opera-
tion.
• Clean the floors inside before retracting the
room to avoid vinyl flooring scratches or car-
pet pile snags.
• Be sure there are no obstructions items at end
of bed or behind the driver seat or in compart-
ments. Some items could be crushed or cause
damage to floor covering or cabinets when
the room is retracted.
• See your authorized dealer for regular main-
tenance and service of the mechanism and
hydraulic system.
• See the HWH guide in your InfoCase for
maintenance information.
