JAYCO TOWABLE SECTION 4-TOWING & SET-UP
Well in advance of your first trip, set up your new RV. Use a garden hose and thoroughly
soak the tent with a light spray of water (do not spray directly on the tent with a high
pressure hose). After the tent dries, repeat the soaking process three additional times.
If you note any water seepage or leaks after seasoning your tent let the tent dry, then spray
water repellant using the instructions provided on the product container. One or more
applications of seam sealer may be necessary to stop water seepage in seams where thread
enters the fabric. Water repellant products and tent seam sealers are usually available
where tent or camping supplies are sold. Once performed, the new tent seasoning process
does not need to be repeated unless a section of your tent is replaced.

xpandable Model Set Up
Proper care and maintenance are important for the life of your tent canvas. If the tent must
be stored wet, open the camping trailer and allow the tent to dry thoroughly as soon as
possible. Be aware that the canvas portion of the tent will take longer to dry than the vinyl.
Make sure the entire tent is completely dry before refolding it and storing the camping
trailer.
Assure that your canvas and trailer have good ventilation, especially after a rainy period.
The most common cause of a damaged canvas is mildew, which is the result of storing
your RV for any period of time with a damp or wet canvas, even for short periods. This is
even more important in humid climates.
Touching the tent canvas when it is wet can cause leakage. During periods of rain, avoid
contact with the tent. The natural body oils in skin will neutralize the tent waterproofing
and cause the rain to soak through. If leakage persists, please contact your dealer for
assistance.

The front bed is equipped with canvas straps to hold the bed mats in place while not in use.
Unhook the canvas straps by using the clips at the top edge.
1.
Unlock and release the exterior locks that hold the bed board in place.
2.
The bed board is supported by cables attached to the RV and the corners of the bed
board. Slowly lower the bed board (DO NOT drop the bed board) into position.
Maintain pressure on the bed board until the cables are fully extended. Pull the tent
canvas out and over the edges of the bed board.
CAUTION
The tent canvas is a mildew resistant fabric; however, this does not mean that it is
mildew proof. Taking proper care of your tent canvas will help to prolong its life. For
warranty coverage, it is imperative that you read, understand and follow the listed
recommendations in this owner’s manual and all related literature.
CAUTION
Dropping the bed board could cause undue pressure on the RV, cable and bed board.
