Section 12: Interior
Cab-Over Power Bunk Bed
Your motor home may be equipped with an over-the-cab power bunk bed. The storage posi-
tion for the bunk is near the ceiling. Any time the bunk is raised into the storage position,
the seat belt style interlock
(Fig 1)
located at the left end of the bunk, must be latched. The
interlock belt, when latched, disables the key switch, and the bunk cannot be lowered/raised
even if the key switch is ON.
Bed Storage
Additional storage has been provided under the bed. To access the storage area, grasp the
ledge at the foot of the bed and lift carefully.
The bed platform must be held when raised .
It is recommended that two people retrieve stored items from under the bed so that one
person may hold the platform, and the other can retrieve the stored items from under the bed.
Lower the platform slowly to close it.
DO NOT DROP THE PLATFORM.
Some models may be equipped with a prop rod to assist with easy access to under bed storage.
Prop Rod
If your model is equipped with a prop rod:

With the help of a second person, raise the bed platform.

Release the prop rod from its holder.

Put the end of the rod in the bracket under the bed platform.

To lower the platform, release the prop rod from the bracket under the bed plat-
form, re-attach the prop rod to the holder on the bed base.

Lower the platform slowly until closed.

Before lifting, be sure there is nothing on the bed that will restrict its
movement or add extra weight.
 Use caution when opening or closing the bed to keep hands and fin-
gers at the end ledge provided (not on the side or farther back than
necessary).

Exercise extreme caution when opening the bed storage platform. Plat-
form must be held open (unless equipped with a prop rod or gas struts)
and slowly lowered until closed.

The bedroom electric slide room system may be located under the bed.
Use care not to obstruct the slide room system when using the under bed
storage.
 Failure to comply with these guidelines can result in serious injury
or property damage.
