Guidelines to ensure long life of slide
system:
Inspect slide roof slide for debris such
as pine needles, dirt, leaves, sticks,
etc. Debris left on the top may cause
damage to the seals during retraction.
If debris is present, wash with soap and
water, then rinse.
When the room is out, visually inspect
the wipe seal for dirt or other foreign
material and for tears.
If the slide room leaks, fully retract
the room. If necessary, tape exterior
opening closed with duct tape until
repairs to the motorhome can be
completed.
Open a window or vent to equalize
pressure during slide operation.
CAUTION
Firmly latch all cabinet doors adjacent
to the slide before extending or
retracting the rooms. Damage to doors
or the fascia may occur.
CAUTION
Dirt and grit trapped under the slide
room can scratch and damage the
floor. Clean the floor before retracting
the slide room. DO NOT move the
motorhome with the slide room
extended.
CAUTION
DO NOT use petroleum based
products on the slide seal. Petroleum
based products can damage the paint
and will cause premature aging of the
rubber seal.
Extending & Retracting Slide Rooms
CAUTION
To extend/retract the slide-out room,
the ignition must be OFF, park brake
set, jacks retracted and the motorhome
supported by the air suspension (air
bags). DO NOT operate the slide out
room with the air suspension (air
bags) deflated or when supported by
hydraulic jacks. Damage to the slide
out room, the
mechanism or
seals can occur.
Confirm the house
batteries are fully
charged.
To Extend or Retract Slide Rooms:
Move the driver or passenger seat
forward. Clean the floor of dirt or grit
that could result in damage during
operation.
Confirm there is enough clearance
inside/outside the motorhome for the
room to extend/retract. Allow at least
five feet of clearance to extend a slide-
out.
Retract hydraulic jacks. Start engine.
Allow time for the air suspension to
support the chassis.
Turn off the engine. Ensure park
brake is applied when extending and
retracting the slide room.
Open a window or vent to equalize
pressure during slide-out operation.
Confirm the house batteries are fully
charged and operating.
People, pets and objects must be clear
of the slide room path.
Remove the locking bars if extending.
Firmly latch all cabinet doors and close
drawers. Damage to the doors, drawers
and fascia can occur.
Locate the slide-out room
control switch. Press
and hold the slide room
switch to the desired (IN
or OUT) position.
Release the switch
anytime to stop room movement. The
drive motor will not automatically stop;
the switch must be released. A change
in motor sound indicates full extension/
retraction.
If applicable, install any locking bars
for travel.
