PRESIDIO
Make sure before exiting the motorhome, that the step is activated and/or extended.
Due to the height of the motorhome, you may accidentally slip or fall if attempting to exit
without use of the step. If the step will not operate, use extra care when exiting.
Never activate the step when someone is using it, and be sure to keep hands, feet,
children, and pets away from the mechanism when activated.
If the motorhome is driven with the step in the extended position, there is the
possibility of causing major damage to both the step and the motorhome.
The entry step features amber lighting under the step, and automatic retraction with the ignition
key in the ON position. The power switch for the entry step is located on the passenger
armrest.
STEP OPERATION:
1. With the entrance door open, turn the override switch to the OFF position. Close the
door. The step should retract and lock in the ‘up’ position.
2. Open the door. The step should extend and lock in the ‘down’ position with the
understep light illuminated.
NOTE: The understep light operation is as follows:
• The light is ON when the step is extended.
• The light is OFF when the step is retracted.
• If the override switch is OFF and the step is extended by opening the door and
the door is left open, the light will turn OFF after five minutes.
• The understep light is not available on all step models.
3. Turn the override switch to the ON position. The step should remain in the extended
position with the understep light OFF when the door is closed.
4. With the override switch turned ON, the step extended, and the entrance door closed,
turn the vehicle ignition ON. The ignition override system will go into effect and the step
will automatically retract.
NOTE: If the yellow wire from the four-way connector is not connected to an ignition power
source, the ignition safety system will be inoperative and the step will remain in the extended
position. In this case, the override switch must be turned OFF for the step to retract.
5. Turn the vehicle ignition OFF and open the door. The step will extend and lock in the
‘down’ position. This is the ‘Auto Extend’ feature. When the vehicle ignition is turned
ON, the step will always activate with the door movement, regardless of the override
switch position.
