lowest SWR reading. This procedure will help
optimize transmitting and receiving capabilities
of the radio system.

COACH LEVELING
SYSTEMS
Your coach may be equipped with an electron-
ic hydraulic leveling system. The level in control
pad is located on the lower left side of the dash.
The leveling system is designed to make select-
ing a parking site easier and faster by reducing
the effect of uneven ground. Electronically con-
trolled hydraulic jacks raise the affected low cor-
ners of the coach to make leveling "set up" faster
and easier for you.

LEVELING PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the room exten-
sion without first leveling and stabilizing the
vehicle.
1. Place gear selector in the parking position,
apply park brake and block tires securely.
NOTE: If the hand/auto park brake is not set, the
"NOT IN PARK/BRAKE" light will
come on when the "ON" button is
pushed. The panel will turn on, but the
system will not operate.
2. Turn ignition switch to "ACCESSORY".
3. Push the "ON" button on the touch panel.
The POWER ON light will be lit. Place pads
under the jacks, if necessary, at this time.
4. A lit yellow LEVEL light indicates that end,
or corner side is low. Push a RAISE (up
arrow) button to extend jack pairs according
to lit yellow lights. ALWAYS LEVEL THE
VEHICLE FROM SIDE TO SIDE BEFORE
LEVELING THE VEHICLE FRONT TO
REAR. Only one yellow LEVEL light can be
on at one time. Extend jack pairs accordingly
until all yellow lights are out. If the ground is
too uneven, the jacks may not have enough
stroke to level the vehicle. The vehicle may
have to be moved.
5. After the vehicle is level, the jacks not used
for leveling may be extended until they
touch the ground. The remaining jacks used
to stabilize the vehicle should lift the vehicle
slightly after touching the ground. This pro-
vides additional stability against wind and
activity in the vehicle. Do this by pushing the
front and/or rear RAISE buttons as needed to
extend any remaining jacks. Do not use the
right or left RAISE buttons.
6. Push the "OFF" button on the touch panel.
7. Turn the ignition switch off.
NOTE: The leveling system should be cycled
once a month or whenever the vehicle is
used, to keep the system in operating
condition.
