JAYCO TOWABLE SECTION 5 - SLIDEOUT SYSTEM
5-1
The slideout room system is designed for additional floor space and comfort. The
mechanical components are gear driven. Electric powered slideout room systems
have a manual override to allow you to extend or retract the slideout room(s) in
case of a power loss. Make sure you have sufficient power available before
operating your slideout system.

1. The auxiliary battery (customer supplied) must be fully charged and
connected. If possible, the RV should be hooked up to 120-volt AC power so
the converter operates.
2. The RV must be level and the stabilizer jacks in the extended position.
3. Locate the slideout control switch.
4. To move the room out, press the OUT section of the switch and hold it until
the motor stops (travel time is approx. 25 seconds). Operating the switch after
the room is fully extended will damage the switch and motor.
After the slideout is extended, verify that the corners of the black rubber seal are
set up correctly. The corners of this seal are cut at a 45° angle. The top of the seal
must overlap the side of the seal to avoid the possibility of water penetration.

WARNING
Ensure that the trailer is level before operating the slideout room. Water leaks
and other problems could result if the slideout is operated without leveling the
trailer.
Ensure there are no people or obstructions blocking the path of the room
when it is moving. Keep away from the slide rails when the room is in motion.
The gear assembly may pinch or catch on loose clothing causing personal
injury.
Ensure the slideout is in the closed position prior to hooking the unit to the tow
vehicle.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
CAUTION
Do not place excessive weight in the slideout room. It can cause the slideout
room to malfunction and cause damage to the slideout.
CAUTION
Additional support jacks are not needed under the slideout. Damage can
occur to your slideout room from improper use of aftermarket support jacks.
