DEEP SNOW AND MUD SWITCH
AUTOMATIC TRACTION CONTROL (ATC)
(If Equipped)
A deep snow and mud option switch is included
with ATC. This function increases available
traction on extra soft surfaces like snow, mud
or gravel, by slightly increasing the permissible
wheel spin.
Drivers use a deep snow and mud switch to
select this feature. When this function is in use,
the ATC indicator lamp blinks continuously.
Switch and lamp locations will vary, depending
on the vehicle make and model.
Listed below is how the Deep Snow and Mud
feature works:

PNEUMATIC DOOR LOCK
(If Equipped)
Your Motor home may be equipped with a
pneumatic door lock. This lock system serves
two functions:
1. To lock and secure the door
2. To pull the door in tight to the frame and
seal our wind noise.
The lock is activated by a switch located by the
passenger’s right arm rest.
LIVING WITH YOUR MOTOR HOME
When preparing to travel in your motor home,
you have 20 minutes to retract your slide outs
and raise your leveling jacks before the air
leveling system “times out”. In the event you
exceed this period, you will be required to turn
the motor off with the ignition key, wait five
seconds with the key in the off position and
restart your engine. Press the “Travel Mode” on
the leveling system key pad to ensure activation
of the leveling system to “travel height”. This
event should take less than five minutes. You
can verify the leveling system is at ride height
by observing the clearance between the tires
and the wheel well skirts. There should be
approximately two to three inches of vertical
clearance between these two components with
the wheels pointing straight ahead. Failure to
wait until the leveling system is fully inflated
may result to damage to the fiberglass wheel
well skirt or damage.
PLUMBING SYSTEMS AND
HOLDING TANKS
Draining the Holding Tanks
For all motor homes the holding tanks terminate
in a valve arrangement that permits draining
of each tank separately. The valves are called
“knife” valves. A blade or knife closes the
opening in the sewer drain pipes stopping
flow. If equipped, there may be a blade that is
connected to a “T” handle that is pulled outward
to open the knife valve for discharging the
wastewater from the tank in the motor home.
During self-containment use, the sewer line is
securely capped to prevent leakage of waste
material onto the ground or pavement. Do not
activate the knife valve when the protective cap
is installed on the pipe. Always drain the tank
into an acceptable sewer inlet or dump station.
Drain the holding tanks only when they are at
least 3/4 full. If necessary, fill the tanks with
