To Retract the Slide-out Room:
• Check for sufficient clearance inside the motorhome before retracting the slide-out room.
• Clean the floor, if necessary, to ensure there is no dirt or grit that could result in floor damage
during operation.
• Inspect the exterior to ensure there are no sags in the awning material.
• Remove any debris from the top of the slide-out room.
• If so equipped, retract the leveling jacks prior to operating the slide-out.
• Ensure the ignition switch is OFF. The slide-out room will not operate with the engine running.
• The house batteries should be fully charged.
• The park brake must be applied.
• Ensure all people, pets and objects are clear of slide-out room path.
• Press and hold the switch in the IN position. The slide-out room will move slowly in. To
stop the slide-out room, release the switch. To continue the room movement, push and hold
the switch in.
• The motor will stop when the slide-out is fully retracted.
• Release the switch.
CAUTION:
Check for sufficient clearance on the inside of the motorhome before retracting the
slide-out room. Never move the motorhome with the slide-out room extended.
CAUTION:
Rain water can pool on the slide-out awning. The added weight will cause the
awning to sag. Upon retracting the room, material can become caught in between
the top of slide room and the opening in the motorhome. It will be necessary to
retract the room in small increments allowing the water time to run off.
NOTE:
Ensure the floor is clean before retracting the slide-out room. Trapped dirt or grit
under the slide-out room can scratch the floor surface.
If the Slide-out Room Fails to Operate:
Check the fuse and auto-reset circuit breaker on the
slide-out relay module located in an electrical box in a
curbside storage bay. If the fuses and circuit breakers test
okay, it will be necessary to call and obtain mechanical
assistance to correct the problem.
