SLIDEOUT ROOMS AND LEVELING
Slideout Switches
(Your coach may have one or more of these
switches depending on model, options, and
available equipment)
-Typical View
CAUTION
Never drive the vehicle with a slideout
room extended!
The slideout room system uses 12-volt DC
motorized mechanisms with an electronic control
system to provide smooth operation and positive
weather seal.
NOTE: We recommend that you KEEP THE
ENGINE RUNNING WHILE
EXTENDING OR RETRACTING
SLIDEOUT ROOMS so the engine
alternator can provide maximum power
for proper operation of the slideout
mechanisms.
WARNING
CRUSH HAZARD. Keep people and
objects clear of the inside and outside of
the slideout room when operating. Failure
to comply could result in death or serious
injury.

To Extend Slideout Room
Before Extending!
• Level the coach and set the Parking Brake.
• Release the travel lock or latch (if equipped)
inside the coach. See information at beginning
of this section (if equipped).
• Ensure exterior compartment doors are closed
so that they will not interfere with slideout
operation.
• Check inside and outside the vehicle to make
sure that there are no people who could be
harmed or obstacles that could cause damage
due to room extension.
• If the slideout room has a couch or other
furniture, make sure no people or pets are
seated on them until the room has been fully
extended.
NOTICE
Release slideout room travel latch before
attempting to extend slideout room.
Secure travel latch before driving vehicle.
Extend Procedure:
See "Before Extending!" before proceeding.

maximum power for proper operation of
slideout mechanisms.

switch and hold until the room is fully
extended, then release the switch.
• To stop extending the room during operation,
release the button.
