Section 4: Vehicle Operation
NOTE: A hitch equipped for trailer towing will have tabs to hang the safety
chains and there will be a bracket for the trailer wiring plug. There should
also be a label on the hitch stating maximum towing capacity.
Entrance Door Step(s)
Make sure your entrance step is fully extended before exiting the vehicle, and retracted
prior to towing.
Lubricating the step mechanism
Carefully clean the area around the pivot points
(the rivets involved in the motion of the mecha-
nism). Lubricate these pivot points with an au-
tomotive grade, non-staining lubricant every 30
to 60 days.
Wipe any excess lubricant off of the step and then
clean the entire step after lubricating.
Step Light
Your RV may be equipped with a switch located on the skirt (in front of the steps) which
operates a light located under the step assembly.
Stowable Entrance Door Step (if so equipped)
 Do not try to lift the steps while the door is closed. This may cause dam-
age to the steps and the door.
 When returning steps to the stored position: adjustable feet may have to
be retracted to fit inside the door opening.
 Make sure people and pets are clear of the area when rotating the steps
down to the ground or raising them for storage.
 Maximum Weight Capacity 500 lbs.
 Maintain hold of the steps until lowered all the way to the ground.
 Prior to use, legs must be adjusted properly to ensure the step is level.
 Ensure that both latches are engaged when the steps are stored.
 Failure to follow these instructions could lead to damage to the unit or
serious injury.
NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A JAYCO FACTORY IN-
STALLED HITCH RECEIVER, DO NOT TOW ANYTHING
BEHIND YOUR RV. THE RV FRAME AND BUMPER ARE
NOT DESIGNED FOR TOWING.
