SECTION 10 –
SLIDEOUT ROOMS AND LEVELING
10-4
•
Remove all items from the coach living room
floor and close cabinet doors and drawers. Be
sure there are no items at the end of the bed,
behind the driver seat, or protruding from
compartments, which could be crushed or
cause damage to floor covering or cabinets
when the room is retracted.
If it has rained recently before you retract the
slideout room, we recommend using the
hydraulic leveling system (if equipped) to lean
the coach and drain off any excess water possibly
remaining on the roof before retracting. Lean the
coach slightly to the left or right (depending on
slideout location), by raising both right or left
side jacks to let excess water flow away from the
rooftop weather seal and toward the outside of
the slideout roof. Retract the slideout slowly,
starting and stopping to allow water to drain off
room cover.
Retract Procedure:
See “Before Retracting!” before proceeding.
•
Start the engine so the alternator can provide
maximum power for proper operation of
slideout mechanisms.
•
Insert the Safety Lock key and turn to activate
slideout room control switch.
•
Press the Slideout Room “RETRACT/IN”
switch and hold until the room is fully
retracted, then release the switch.
•
To stop retracting the room during operation,
release the button.
•
After the room is retracted, deactivate the
slideout switch with the Safety Lock key, then
refasten the travel lock or latch inside the
coach (if equipped).
SLIDEOUT ROOM – EXTREME
WEATHER PRECAUTION
Certain extreme weather conditions, such as
heavy rains, heavy snow, and high winds, or any
combination of these, could cause damage to the
slideout room cover-awning (if equipped) or
reduce effectiveness of the slideout room weather
seals.
Also, freezing rain and snow can prevent the
slideout cover-awning (if equipped) from closing
and may cause damage to the cover-awning,
slideout room, weather seals, and mechanisms.
To avoid potential damage, we recommend
retracting your slideout room during extreme
weather conditions.
NOTICE
Because the slideout roof is drawn into
the interior of the coach when retracted,
be sure there is no debris, such as
excessive dirt, tree seeds, twigs, leaves,
etc. on the roof before retracting.
