Section 4: Vehicle Operation
Hydraulic Leveling System
Typically located on left side of steering wheel. For detailed operating and safety informa-
tion, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.
Leveling your motorhome is important for the following reasons
 The water drainage systems are designed with proper slope and must be level for
proper operation.
 The appliances perform best when level.
Before operating the leveling system, the motorhome:
 Must be parked on a reasonably level surface.
 Must have the parking brake engaged.
 Must have the transmission gear selector in NEUTRAL.
FAILURE TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING
WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH!
 The leveling system is designed only for leveling the unit and should
never be used to provide service for any reason under the motorhome
such as changing tires or servicing the system. It is not recommended
that you change a tire yourself.
 Check that potential jack contact locations are clear of obstructions or
depressions.
 Keep people clear of the motorhome prior to turning the leveling system
on and while the leveling system is in operation.
 Never expose hands or other parts of the body near hydraulic leaks. High-
pressure oil leaks may cut and penetrate the skin causing serious injury.
 After starting the leveling cycle, it is important that occupants do not
move around in the motorhome until the vehicle is level. Failure to re-
main still during the leveling cycle can affect the leveling jack system
sensors.
 Never lift the wheels off of the ground when leveling the motorhome.
 Do not move the motorhome while the jacks are still in contact with the
ground or extended. Damage to the vehicle could occur.
 Do not rely solely upon warning lights to determine the position of the
leveling jacks. It is the operator’s responsibility to check that all the lev-
eling jacks are fully raised in the travel mode before moving the mo-
torhome.
NOTE: The slideout room should be extended (with the air sus -
pension fully aired up) before leveling jacks are deployed. Wheels
MUST be straight. When the coach is leveled, air bags are dumped
of air which lowers the fenders below the tops of the wheels. If the
wheels are not straight, fenders and/or tires WILL be damaged. This
is a very expensive repair to make. DO NOT DUMP AIR FROM AIR
BAGS UNLESS WHEELS ARE STRAIGHT!
