To Extend:
1. Level the motorhome.
2. Ensure there is proper clearance to fully extend the slideout.
3. Apply the parking brake and activate the coach battery disconnect switch.
4. To extend the slideout, press and hold the ROOM CONTROL SWITCH in the
“EXTEND” position. When the slideout is fully extended, release the ROOM
CONTROL SWITCH.
Keep people and obstructions clear of room when operating. The Pilot and Co-Pilot
seats must be in their most forward position, with seat backs in the vertical setting.
Dirt and grit trapped under the slideout room could result in damage to the floor.
Continuous operation of the slideout could cause a drain on the coach batteries and
damage to the slideout motor.
To Retract:
1. Ensure proper clearance by clearing any obstruction in the slideout area.
2. Apply the parking brake and turn the ignition to the Accessory position.
3. To retract the slideout, press and hold the ROOM CONTROL SWITCH in the
“RETRACT” position. When the slideout is fully retracted, release the ROOM
CONTROL SWITCH.
NOTE: When retracting slideouts, a delay may be present until the hydraulic pump builds
enough pressure to pull the room in. Just continue to press the switch until the room retracts.
The full wall slideout utilizes a safety switch to prevent damage to the interior bedroom door and
the slideout. The safety switch is located just behind the door on the interior sidewall. When the
interior door is open and properly positioned for travel, the switch is depressed and allows
operation of the full wall slideout.
