AIRSTREAM 360 XC LAND YACHT OWNERS MANUAL

EXTENDED STAY
Making a long trip is not very different from making a weekend excursion. Since everything you need is
right at hand, you are at home wherever you go. When packing for an extended trip, take everything you
need, but only what you need. Some models are equipped with Hydraulic Leveling Jacks that can be
deployed. Complete instructions are included with the Owners Packet. Be sure to read the directions
completely prior to operating the jacks.
When you plan to stay in the same place for several days, weeks or months, you will want your motorhome
to be as level as possible. Check the attitude with a small spirit level set on the inside work counter. If a
correction is necessary, then you must first level from side to side. This can be done most easily by driving
up a small ramp consisting of 2" x 6" boards tapered at both ends. WE DO NOT RECOMMEND
PLACING TIRES IN A HOLE FOR LEVELING.
CAUTION: Read and follow all warning labels in the coach and safety instructions in the Power
Gear owner manual . To operate the SLIDE-OUT room you MUST first remove the interior travel locks.
These are located on the top of the room on the interior of the coach and are out of your normal sight. There
are two and they provide pressure between the exterior wall of the coach and the top facer board on the
room. They have caming action and the tension is adjustable. The first time you remove them you'll
probably need to stand on a stable step stool to see how the cam is released. After seeing their simple
operation you may able to operate them from the floor according to your height and strength. Also make
sure the driver’s seat is forward enough to clear the room. Push and hold the rocker switch located at the
top of the control panel in the hallway. You'll easily be able to tell by the sound of the mechanism when the
room is fully extended or retracted. Instructions for manual retraction and extension of the room during a
power failure are in the Power gear owner’s manual.
NOTE: Before the optional slide-out room can be deployed the ignition switch must be off. We also
recommend leveling the coach prior to deploying the slide-out.
CAMPGROUND SETUP
Hook Up to Water by attaching a ½” minimum high-pressure water hose to the city water service, or the
hose from the water reel if so equipped.
Plug the
Electrical Cable into the City Power Service . Be sure you have the wire grounded and have the
proper polarity. See Electrical Section for technical details.
A
Cable TV and Telephone Hookups are located on the roadside rear corner of the motorhome. It is
already wired into the existing system, so the exterior connection is all that is required
To use the
Generator you simply start it. All switching is done automatically. The generator can be started
either from your interior monitor panel, dash switch or the switch on the generator itself. It is easier on your
generator and appliances if you'll allow the generator to reach its normal operating speed (about a minute)
prior to applying heavy current loads.
Hook your
Waste Drain Hose into the Sewer Disposal Facility and attach to the drain outlet in your
motorhome. For details on this procedure see Drain and Waste System Section.
Turn on the gas supply and light the oven pilot. Lighting a top range burner to bleed any air from the
system will make it easier to start other appliances.
When you stay for extended periods where electric or water hookups are not available, you must make
regular checks on the condition of your 12-volt battery and the contents of your water tank. Carry drinking
water in a clean bucket to refill your tank. When your waste tank nears capacity, move your motorhome to
a dumping location.
