SECTION 10 SLIDEOUT
SLIDEOUT ROOM OPERATION
The slideout living room provides a spacious
living area at the push of a button. The slideout
room is extended and retracted using a motorized
mechanism with an electronic control system.
The slideout room system uses a 12-Volt DC
motorized room mechanism to insure smooth
operation and positive weather seal.
The slideout control switch is located near the
entrance door or Systems Monitor Panel.
Note: We recommend that you KEEP THE
ENGINE RUNNING WHILE
EXTENDING OR RETRACTING
SLIDEOUT ROOMS so the engine
alternator can provide maximum power
for proper operation of the slideout
mechanisms.
Before Extending the Slideout
Room:
1. Level the coach and set the Parking Brake.
2. Make sure exterior compartment doors are
closed so that they will not interfere with
slideout operation.
3. Make sure that there are no people who could
be harmed or obstacles that could cause
damage due to room extension.
4. Release the safety travel straps inside the
coach.
If the slideout room has a couch or other
furniture, make sure no people or pets are seated
on them until the room has been fully extended.
Travel Strap
The travel strap
must be released before ex-
tending the room
or damage to the coach will re-
sult.
The travel strap is designed only to help keep
the room extension secured against the coach
sidewall to maintain an effective weather seal
while the vehicle is in motion. It is not designed
to withstand the force exerted by the room exten-
sion mechanism and will not prevent accidental
extension of the room.
The travel strap is located near the floor at the
front end of the slideout room.
To Release:
•
Pull the strap buckle outward and up to release
tension on strap.
•
Pull a short length of the excess strap back
through the buckle to provide sufficient slack.
•
Unhook the strap end peg from the mooring
bracket on the floor and wall edge. Store strap
in location of your choice. (Under the couch is
one choice.)
.
CAUTION
Release slideout room travel straps
before attempting to extend slide-out
room. Fasten travel straps before driving
vehicle.
