CAUTION: Tow bards or car dollies generally are made to
travel in a forward direction only. Most towing equipment
of this type is not designed for backing. Never attempt short
back up distances with a tow bar or tow dolly. Damage to
the motorhome, vehicle or towing device will result.
If the site for the motorhome has full hook-ups, use this quick reference
hook-up checklist. This hook-up list is only a guide. This checklist has
information on hooking up the utilities and preparing the appliances for use.
Specific information on the slide room, awning and leveling system operations
discussed in detail in other sections.
• If applicable, unlock any travel locks which may be securing the
slide room awning. Check for lateral clearance before extending
the slide-out room.
NOTE: To operate the kitchen slide: The ignition must be
OFF, the park brake must be set and the bay doors directly
under the slide room must be closed.
CAUTION: Before leveling the motorhome survey the area
around and under the motorhome for obstructions which
can damage the motorhome or undercarriage components
when the air bags are deflated.
• Follow the procedures and guidelines for “Leveling the
Motorhome.” If the motorhome is equipped with hydraulic jacks,
be certain the parking surface will accommodate the weight
placed on the jacks.
CAUTION: Hot asphalt may not support the weight that is
placed on the hydraulic jack pads. Place thick plywood
under the jack pads to help disperse the weight. Never use
the leveling system to support the entire weight of the
motorhome. Damage from excessive torsional twists can
result.
• Open the LP-Gas tank valve.
• If possible, begin appliance operation on LP-Gas for the first 60
minutes. Switch the refrigerator operation to gas, start the water
heater and furnace (if needed). This will allow time for the inverter
to stabilize the battery charging.
