SECTION 12 –
MISCELLANEOUS
Emergency Retract Feature
The step cover is equipped with an Emergency
Retract function in event of an emergency exit
situation and/or the step cover fails to retract
while in the extended position.
An emergency cable release is connected to a
black plastic snap-in plate labeled “Emergency
Retract” located at the front edge of the step
cover.
To release the step cover for exit emergency,
remove the black plastic plate by pulling it
upward and to the side.
A bead-chain is attached to the black plastic
cover and as you remove it, the chain will pull the
release allowing you to manually push the cover
in.
WINDOWS
Crank-Out Windows
Turn the crank-out knob clockwise to open
window, counterclockwise to close. Do not use
excessive force on the knob to open or lock into
closed position. This could cause permanent
damage to the crank mechanism.
When closing the window, crank the window
in snugly, then back off 1/4 turn to help avoid
glass warping, which can result in wind noise.
If the window will not open after three or more
full turns of the knob, the glass may be stuck to
the sealing gasket. Go to the outside of the coach
and gently free the glass with your fingers. A
periodic light dusting of talcum powder on the
gasket should prevent this from recurring.
CAUTION
Do not use Emergency Retract feature
unless necessary for emergency.
Operation of the Emergency Retract
feature will cause the step cover to
become non-functional until the cable
mechanism is reconnected by your
dealer.
Lift snap-in plate from
front edge of step cover.
Pull chain to release step mechanism
and manually slide step cover back.
