13 - SLIDEOUT ROOM
To Retract Slideout Room:
•
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 UV
protectant for smooth quiet operation.
•
Clean the floors inside before retracting the
room to avoid vinyl flooring scratches or car-
pet pile snags.
•
Be sure there are no items at the end of the
bed or behind the driver seat or protruding
from compartments which 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 Owner InfoCase
for maintenance information.
If Slideout Room Will Not Operate
(Troubleshooting)
•
The chassis battery may be low on charge.
Press the Aux. Start switch on the dash to the
momentary (MOM) position while pressing
the slide-out control switch. This momentari-
ly connects the coach batteries to assist in
retracting the room.
•
One of the fuses may be blown. Fuses are
located on the front firewall behind the
‘hood’ panel, beneath the instrument panel
dash pod, and inside the leveling control pad
housing. Unfasten the control pad from the
driver side armrest panel to inspect the fuse.
•
If the batteries and fuses are okay, there may
be a failure in the hydraulic system or electri-
cal system.
Emergency Retraction Procedure -
Front Slideout Rooms
(If slideout room will not retract using control
switch)
NOTE: For Right Front Slideout on Model 40AD
or 40KD follow the Bedroom Push-In
Procedure elsewhere in this section.
Step 1 - Relieve Hydraulic Line Pressure
•
Open the hydraulic pump slideout solenoid-
valves to release hydraulic line pressure and
let fluid bypass into the fluid reservoir. The
pump is located under the entrance step.
NOTE: The hydraulic pump is equipped with two
types of hydraulic solenoid valves
shown. The
leveling jack
solenoids have
a
T-handle
on the valve shaft that can be
turned by hand. The
slideout room
sole-
noid has a small 1/4”
nut
at the end of
the valve shaft that requires you to use a
1/4” nut driver built into the shaft of the
oil reservoir breather/fill cap. See photo
at the end of this section.
See the Slideout System Operator’s man-
ual included in your Owner InfoCase for
specific instructions on which valves to
open for front or rear slideout rooms and
what additional precautions to follow.
•
Open the two slideout solenoid valves (with
1/4” nuts on the ends) on the motor end of the
pump to relieve hydraulic line pressure.
DO
NOT LOOSEN NUTS MORE THAN 4
FULL TURNS.
Stop engine, place transmission in
neutral position and apply parking
brake before lying beneath vehicle for
this procedure.
