6. With the step switch in the “on” position, turn the vehicle ignition switch “off” and open the door. The step will
extend and lock in the DOWN position.
Figure 9-7. Entrance Step Switch
Caution
If the door is opened and closed without allowing the step to extend fully
and lock in the “DOWN” position, the step will retract and lock in the “UP”
position. When the door is re-opened, the step will not extend. The power
switch must be turned “on” for the step to extend.
7. This feature is only operative the first time the door is opened after the vehicle ignition switch is turned “off.”
When the ignition switch is “on,” the step will always activate with the door movement, regardless of the position
of the step power switch.
Caution
If the door is opened and closed without allowing the step to extend fully
and lock in the “DOWN” position, the step will retract and lock in the “UP”
position. When the door is re-opened, the step will not extend. The power
switch must be turned “on” for the step to extend.
Figure 9-8. Stairwell
When the electric steps are fully retracted and the motor home is being made
ready for travel, be sure to deploy the cover over the stairwell (use either the
switch [Figure 9-7] on the driver’s console or the switch on the passenger’s side) to
protect any occupants of the cabin from any accidental stepping into the open
stairwell. Activating either switch will cause the stairwell cover (Figure 9-8) to be
electrically deployed from a recess beneath the floor in front of the passenger’s
seat. This precaution will provide a safe traveling environment for anyone using
the passenger’s seat during travel.
