JAYCO CLASS A MOTOR HOMES SECTION 5 – SLIDEOUT SYSTEMS
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 room control switch. The main slideout
switch is located in the command center. The bedroom
slideout switch may be located in the command center or on
a bedroom interior wall depending on the model.
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.

WARNING
Ensure that the motorhome is level before operating the slideout room. Water
leaks and other problems could result if the slideout is operated without
leveling the motorhome.
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.
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.
