2. Loosen the adjustment screws to where the mirror will
move with slight force, but not so loose that the mirror
will not hold position.
3. Sit in the driver’s seat and adjust the seat for your
normal driving position.
4. Look out the side windows at both the left and right
mirrors and ask your helper to adjust the mirrors so
that you can slightly see the side of the motorhome,
while maintaining a good rearward view without
needing to move your upper body.
5. Tighten the setscrews and check the mirrors again to
ensure the mirrors held their position.
Vision Systems
Your TMC motorhome may be equipped with a rear and/
or side vision system. If equipped, the installation includes
a rear-view camera mounted along the top of the motor-
home’s rear valance and an in-dash camera monitor (usually
the dash radio screen). Some installations will also include
side-view cameras. Camera signals are fed to the dash radio/
camera monitor and appear when the gear selector is placed
in reverse, or for side-view cameras, actuated by the turn
signals. Some Class C installations include a camera monitor
in the cab rear-view mirror.
TO OPERATE
1. For the camera monitor to function, the dash radio must
be ON. It is powered by the auxiliary battery(ies), there-
fore, the Master Battery Disconnect Switch must also be
ON. It is normal to keep the Master Battery Disconnect
Switch in the ON position while traveling. Doing so
also allows the vehicle’s charging system to charge the
auxiliary battery(ies) while the engine is running.
2. When the gear selector is placed in REVERSE, the
radio display automatically changes to the rear-view
camera monitor, allowing for a rearward view via the
camera and monitor system.
3. When the gear selector is moved out of REVERSE,
the camera will automatically turn off and the radio
display will revert to the previous screen.
Vision System Prep Only
If your motorhome is not equipped with an electronic
vision system, it may be pre-wired for it. Please contact
your selling dealership for assistance in locating the vision
system installation wires placed in your motorhome.

ments prescribed for it by FMVSS/CMVSS 108. Please
