Schwintek Slide-Out Systems
Extending and Retracting
You may notice slight creaking or squeaking noises during
operation of the slide-out. These noises are normal especially
during the break-in period. Noise may be reduced, but not
eliminated over time.
1. Make sure the travel trailer is level and stabilized.
2. Ensure that the auxiliary/house battery is fully charged
and properly connected.
3. Check interior space to make sure no furnishings or
cargo will interfere with the motion of the slide-out
4. Check exterior space for branches, furnishings, people,
pets, and other items that might obstruct the slide-out
5. Inspect the top and sides of the slide-out; eliminate
debris, water, snow, etc. that may be drawn in or out of
the travel trailer.
6. Press and hold the slide-out switch in position to open or
close the slide-out. Make sure the slide-out extends or
retracts completely in order for the slide-out seals to be
effective.
Manual Override
If the Schwintek Slide-Out does not function properly, use these
steps to perform an electronic manual override of the system:
•
Locate the circuit board and press the “mode button” six
times quickly; then press a seventh time and hold for
approximately 5 seconds.
•
The green and red LED indicators will flash confirming
the override mode.
•
Release the “mode” button
•
Using the inside slide-out switch, press and hold the “IN”
button until the slide-out retracts completely.
If the electronic manual override does not work:
•
Locate the circuit board and unplug both motors (this
disengages the motor brake)
•
Push or pull the slide-out as desired. More than one
person may need to help with this step.
•
Keep the room centered and even as you move it in or
out.
•
When the room is in position, plug the motors back into
the circuit board. This engages the motor brake to keep
the room in position.
•
Manually pushing on one side of the slide-out can also
enable the slide-out to be moved if just one motor is
operational
