If your RV is equipped with a slide out there are 
several precautions that should be taken before 
operation of the slide room: 

1.

 

Make sure you have clearance on the 
exterior. 

2.

 

Make sure your slide out awning is 
unlocked. 

3.

 

Make sure that all interior items are 
clear. 

4.

 

Make sure that you have sufficient 
battery power. 

If you slide out room rails to move in or out you 
may have a low battery.  Make sure that the 
battery is fully charged and try the operation 
again (the slide out will not operate on the 
converter alone, also, a battery that reads 12 
volts may not be at full amperage capacity).  
Your slide room responds to increased amps to 
stop.  If your room is inoperable, turn your 
battery disconnect switch off.  This will allow 
you to manually push your room in until you get 
to an authorized Glacier RV service center. 
 

SLIDE OUT CIRCUIT BREAKER SWITCH 

 
If attempting to move the slide and its 
perceived that the motor has no power, check 
the 12 volt 50 amp mini-breaker located in the 
electrical panel to make sure it has not been 
tripped.  Reset the breaker as needed. 
 

SLIDE OUT WEATHER SEALS 

 
Periodically check all seals and gaskets on the 
slide out walls for proper fit and operation. 
 
Slide outs are not designed to have a 100% air-
tight seal; however, you will find that the best 
seal possible can be achieved with proactive 
maintenance and proper use. 
 

 
VEHICLE MAINTENANCE 

 
Generally, sealants are designed to last more 
than a few years, however, varying weather 

conditions and different climates can 
breakdown those sealants in as little as 1 year. 
 
Probably the most important area to check is 
the roof.  Generally, this area should be check 
twice a year.  Other areas that will need 
attention include the moldings used on the side 
walls and the entry door edge moldings.  Since 
these areas are more accessible for periodical 
checks, it is recommended to inspect the side 
walls and windows every time you wash your 
RV.  Sometimes washing the side walls can 
actually remove some necessary sealants.  If 
you find an area on your side walls that needs 
resealing, a clear silicone, or one that matches 
the color of the existing sealant should be used. 
 
The last few areas that might need attention 
are those around the clearance lights, tail lights 
and around accessories and windows.  All these 
areas can be resealed using a common silicone 
based sealant/adhesive.  However, when 
sealing windows, be careful to keep from 
sealing over any weep holes.  These holes are 
designed to drain any water that may have 
found its way to the inside of a window or 
mirror. 
 
Keeping up on the maintenance or your 
sealants will keep your RV looking beautiful for 
a long time.  If you are not sure what type of 
sealants should be used on any part of your RV, 
a simple phone call to your dealer or service 
center for direction will prove beneficial. 
 
If you plan on using wax on your side walls you 
should use a marine type wax.  Marine type wax 
is best suited for fiberglass surfaces.  Regular 
automotive wax is suitable for painted surfaces 
of the RV.
