Chapter 8 - Interior Systems
Driving a motorhome is similar to driving a car. You have an ignition switch, gearshift
controls, turn signals, and dash components. As you sit in the driver’s seat the center of
the cluster includes tachometer, speedometer, fuel gauge, oil gauge, temperature gauge,
and amp meter. Switches may have symbols to describe their function. See pages 51 and
52 for more detailed information on the function of each switch. Switch locations may be
different from model to model.
The dash radio can be played without turning the ignition key “on” provided that the
battery disconnect is in the “use” position. The cruise controls are on the turn signal lever.
You can set, resume, and disengage the cruise control from this location.
The gear selector is located on the left side of the steering wheel. Some models have
an overdrive switch on the end. Press the button to engage/disengage to overdrive
function. Pull the lever toward you to place into the desired gear. Be sure the service
brake is applied when making this selection. See the Chassis Owner’s Manual for more
information.
Below are descriptions of the various controls on your dashboard. Please keep in mind
that these controls may be located in different positions depending on the model of your
particular vehicle.
HEATED MIRRORS: Use this switch to defrost your mirrors.
WINDSHIELD WIPER/ WASHER LEVER: Your windshield wiper control is also your turn signal
controller. To turn on your windshield wipers, twist the end of the control to desired
position. To activate the washer push onto the washer tab.
REMOTE MIRRORS: This switch allows you to set the viewing angle of your mirrors from
the convenience of the driver’s seat. To adjust the driver’s side mirror, move the lever to
the left. For the passenger’s side, move the lever to the right and adjust as needed.
FOG LIGHTS: Are offered to provide more visibility. Fog lights will function with low
beams.
HEADLIGHTS: Press this button to turn on your headlights. The right button is for just
the parking lights. The left button is for your headlights. The knob will adjust the backlit
lighting for the dash board. (Set this according to your preference.)
SERVICE-LIGHTS: Provide under the hood lighting.
BATTERY BOOST: Permits using the auxiliary battery power to aid in starting the
motorhome engine if the vehicle battery has become discharged. When the ignition
key is turned to the start position and one or more clicking sounds are heard, it may be
necessary to use the auxiliary start system as follows:
Always set the parking brake prior to using the auxiliary start system.
1. Press and hold the AUX START switch located on the dash.
2. Turn the key and start the engine in the normal manner.
3. Release the AUX START switch and operate motorhome in a normal manner.
Do not hold the ignition key in the start position for more than 30
seconds. Be careful not to run down the auxiliary RV battery as this could
leave you without any 12 Volt power.
