Your motor home may be equipped with an electrically operated rear stabilizer control.
The (2) stabilizers are located at the rear of the coach, and when extended, will keep the
motor home from rocking side to side. The control is typically located inside the coach at
the stepwell. The control has (2) rocker switches, one being the power switch and the other
extends or retracts the stabilizers.
To use the system, press the power switch to the “ON”
position. To extend the stabilizers, press and hold the extend/
retract switch in the extend position until the stabilizers are
fully extended. When they are fully extended, the LED light
at the bottom of the panel marked “EXTENDED” will light
up. To retract the stabilizers, press and hold the extend/retract
switch in the retract position. The LED light will go off and the
stabilizers will retract. Turn the power switch OFF.
If the jacks are down and the vehicle is started and put in gear,
a loud alarm will sound to let you know the jacks must be
retracted.
FAILURE TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING
WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH!
The leveling system is designed
only
for leveling the unit and should
never be used to provide service for any reason under the motor home
such as changing tires or servicing the system. It is not recommended
that you change a tire yourself.
Check that potential jack contact locations are clear of obstructions or
depressions.
Keep people clear of the motor home prior to turning the leveling system
ON and while the leveling system is in operation.
After starting the leveling cycle it is very important you or other occupants
do not move around in the motor home until the vehicle is level. Failure
to remain still during the leveling cycle can affect the leveling jack
system sensors.
Never lift the motor home wheels off of the ground when leveling the
motor home.
Do not move the motor home while the jacks are still in contact with the
ground or extended. Damage to the vehicle could occur.
Do not rely solely upon warning lights to determine the position of the
leveling jacks. It is the operator’s responsibility to check that all the
leveling jacks are fully raised in the travel mode before moving the motor
home.
