WARNING:
V 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.
V Ensure there are no people or obstructions blocking the path of the
room when it is moving.
V Keep away from the slide rails when the room is in motion.
V The gear assembly may pinch or catch on loose clothing causing
personal injury.
V Always install travel bars for storage and transportation.
V 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: 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 degree angle. The top of the seal must
overlap the side of the seal to avoid the possibility of water
penetration. (Fig. 9)

Damage can occur to your slideout room from improper use of support
jacks.
